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 11 months 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 11 months ago (1 children)

Your ARCH nemesis.

I'll see my way out, thank you.

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

[–] [email protected] 50 points 11 months 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.

dont forget their favorite pasttime of raising children. i dont expect them to know as much as us men.

[–] [email protected] 59 points 11 months ago (4 children)

He also says "they wear them" when the question was if they like them. The two are not necessarily mutually exclusive. Make him wear a bra and ask if he likes it, then interrupt him and say he is wearing one.

[–] [email protected] 83 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I assumed he was setting her up for the punchline of repeating the question about whether they like to wear them. It comes across as self deprecating humor at his own expense while reinforcing her point.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 11 months ago

Yeah him speaking up made the moment way funnier.

But also man talked, bad man bad

[–] [email protected] 43 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Ask him if he likes wearing a tie. I don't know anyone who actually enjoys the process of wearing one, just being seen in one. Little garrotes are uncomfortable.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 11 months ago (1 children)

But I like looking dapper 😔

[–] [email protected] 19 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Yes but do you like wearing them, aside from social interactions? Do you relax at home fully suited up where nobody sees you?

Fun fact: the first modern brassiere was two jock straps sewed together.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 11 months ago

That's kind of a jock strap.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 11 months ago

Wrong. His original question to her was if she wore one, then she turned to the audience and asked the ladies if they liked wearing them. He thought she was about to ask if they wore bras and preemptively said "they wear them."

[–] [email protected] 48 points 11 months ago (1 children)

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.

[–] [email protected] 28 points 11 months ago

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 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Sports bras?

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

[–] [email protected] 16 points 11 months 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 11 months ago

"Comfortable" is still only in comparison, though.

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 11 months 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 11 months ago

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

[–] [email protected] 6 points 11 months 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!)

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 11 months 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 11 months 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 11 months ago

Just her neck and some streak of light.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 11 months 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.
