Q&A: Is it a good thing to have big or "pouty" lips?

I browse like twice a day on Yahoo Answers looking for questions that I can help with. I think of it as my good deed of the day. Once I find a question that I can relate to and help with, I respond, with the best of my knowledge of course, and hope it helps. After a while, If the person likes my answer or if it helps, I normally get voted Best Answer. The questions I then post here are one's I received Best Answer for.

So heres the question:

Is it a good thing to have big or "pouty" lips?

"I know random question, but my friends are always telling me I have pouty looking lips. My bottom lip Is bigger then my top so it looks pouty? Some people say it is good to have them. But my friend said I have "black peoples" lips. Sorry I think it is mean what she said and didn't mean to offend anyone if I did:)"- A*****a

And here is my answer:

"I use to get picked on about my lips by my black and white friends. I also have full lips. Guys LOVE them though, so I say love em haha. Make sure though if your face is skinnier or not as round as most, and you want your lips to not look as big, to just ALWAYS use lip liner... then put on your lipstick if you wear it or lip gloss, and make sure you dress well according to your lips. Seems crazy and all... but trust me... how you do your hair or makeup makes a huge difference.. it can be the difference between big over plumped lips or amazing full lips.. I always say.. love what you have, and if you hate it, make it unique or likable. Hope that helps =]"

To further expand on what I was trying to share with A*****a. How things, like your lips, look on your face does correspond with how you carry yourself. Its as if you wear your hair short, long, up or down. For example,the first picture is me with my hair long and down, and the second is a picture of my hair short.

My lips, to me, seem to look fuller when my hair is down and is close to my face. I hate this look so much. While with my short hair my upper lip always looked smaller and slimmer than my bottom which i hated so much more. After sitting, and thinking for a while as to what the heck to do, I decided this was the best way to wear my hair:

By adding hair i now had a different look. If you see every single picture displays slightly different lips. The first one is huge and plump, the second is disproportional, and the last, is what i basically try to make my lips look everyday.
