That's it. Of course. Your ample bosom probably adds some actual weight to you, so as soon as you relax your shoulders, it sucks your breasts in a bit. You holding your breasts in leads to you stooping. When you stoop your neck hunches forward. I'm not attacking you, but the way your neck hunches over makes you look like a turtle with its head in its shell.
