呆傻痴苶

Chinese to English Art/Literary Poetry & Literature Fiction novel
I am translating a novel that is very stream-of consciousness. I can't guess at what 呆傻痴苶 means in relation to breasts. Dictionaries are not helpful as this seems to be slang or a regional phrase. Some context is provided below.

The main character is a male medical student from Bejing. He thinks 小红, a friend, is really hot.

那之后,我去了很多地方。我固执地认为,北京最好的蓝天是世界上最蓝的,又高又蓝,那种高那种蓝独一无二,比后来到过的云南、西藏、古巴的天还要蓝,比绿松石、天湖石、蓝宝石还要蓝。我同样固执地认为,小红的奶是最好的,比它挺拔一些的比它短小矮钝太多,比它肥大一些的比它呆傻痴苶太多。

This is intended for US English readers. Slang is ok, as long as it sounds natural.

saggy

He's a real charmer, your lead character.

...there were perkier tits than Little Red's, but they were always just mosquito bites. You could find bigger tits than Little Red's, but they always sagged like a retard's jaw.

My simile was inspired by the source... invent away!

sorry it is dull and weary. In this case it should mean the breast is large and floppy.
