Ladies, no one is stopping you from whipping them out.

Except other ladies. And creepy dudes. And back pain. And gravity.

[–] [email protected] 39 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Ah, gravity, my arch nemesis (I have a disability that makes me fall over a lot. I also have boobs)

[–] [email protected] 29 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Your ARCH nemesis.

I'll see my way out, thank you.

And other men using the "she was asking for it" card.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

I think this is probably true now, but wasn't true even 20 years ago.

As a man, I think this is a excellent opportunity for me to mansplain things.

[–] [email protected] 50 points 2 years ago (1 children)

for the women who are confused: 'mansplaining' is short for 'man explaining'. hope this helps!

This used to be a joke about how women are intellectually inferior and easily distracted. It was meant sarcastically, but as some asshats actually believe these things, I've decided to remove my comment.

Instead, please enjoy this limerick:

Once a man, his wit astray,
Misogyny in words, led him away.
Regret took its toll,
He sought a kinder role,
Apologies now pave his new day.

This morning I stood there almost completely dressed and then I thought,

I should wear a bra. But I don't want to wear a bra. But if I don't wear a bra I will be walking around with my hands curled in so my forearms obscure my chest, all day long walking around curled up like an insecure T-Rex because that's how I posture myself when I don't wear a bra.

If OTOH I do wear a bra I can walk like a normal person, which will retain my self-esteem so although I don't want to wear a bra, I put one on anyway.

An insecure T-Rex is cute while also being extremely dangerous.

Before he moved to the BBC, Graham Norton had a late 90s/early 2000s show on Channel 4, which (amongst other things) featured random shit off the internet.

I swear, half the weird internet stuff would be prefaced with 'So, Carrie Fisher sent me this email- '.

There are really comfortable bras now, wide bands, x across the back, they're supposed to be a game changer. Especially for women with bigger boobs. However… I forgot what the brand was.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Sports bras?

I woulden't say they are super comfortable but way better than a regular bra

[–] [email protected] 16 points 2 years ago

I know someone who wears Tomboy. They say they are very comfortable and still provide enough padding up front to be sightly.

The Bralettes have an X back.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

"Comfortable" is still only in comparison, though.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

I'm sure Torrid carries them.

Are bras uncomfortable like underwear is for guys? I.e. i don't really love wearing it, but if I just let things flap around it's kinda a mess.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 2 years ago (1 children)

am trans woman, hav boobies and pp... have worn both in my life. bras are infinitely worse than underwear

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 years ago

Trans people out here doing the research the rest of us are too afraid to truly do

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I can't relate to how men's underwear feels, but bras are super uncomfortable. I only wear sports bras and I still hate them. It's harder to breathe- there's a constant pressure around the rib cage.

I only wear them when I have to, and even then sometimes I'm like: "fuck it, I'll deal with the looks" (mostly from other women who are with men- and my tits are small!)

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Soprts bras are the way. I hate em too, but they are the least shitty option. I messed up my ribcage wearing wrong bras.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago

Love wearing a bra. The only time I don't is whilst in water. The pain of not wearing one is ridiculous. That being said, some bras are just awful and uncomfortable and you need the right one, or two, for the right occasion. I hate wearing pants though and will happily wear nothing but a bra in my own house.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

In my experience if I get one that fits right they're not that bad. Some styles are just uncomfortable regardless, but bodies can be shaped in a lot of different ways, so of course preferences will vary just as much.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Only thing I know about bras is some have wires which can literally stab you when you wear them.

What is that disembodied hand around her throat in the third pane?

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 years ago

Just her neck and some streak of light.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 years ago

I think that's called "skin"

I was just listening to her book Wishful Drinking this evening! The Princes Diarist is next. She was such a funny, insightful writer. Her dark humor regarding pregnancy is especially good and cathartic for the phase of life I'm in now.

A wonderful voice was lost when she passed.
