Res Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 I currently have a sports bra that’s shaped somewhat like a regular bra and has an underwire but is also thick and comfy and I can barely even tell I’m wearing it. IMO almost everyone ought to find bras comfy if they’re the right size and shape. Underwired, too! Something like 80% of people wear the wrong size bra, though. The subreddit a bra that fits is actually genuinely good for helping to size people. Oh and add me to the currently heel-less list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shatteredroom Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 I wish I could get away with a non-underwire bra because I miss those days of being small chested enough to get by without one. Nowadays my chest needs too much support to go without an underwire... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Underwired, too! Something like 80% of people wear the wrong size bra, though. The subreddit a bra that fits is actually genuinely good for helping to size people. That was my thought too... Bras are supposed to be comfortable. Underwire should not be digging in. Also, the back should not be riding up, and the boobs should not be spilling out the front or coming out of the bra when bending over. --- Some people would be surprised at their actual bra size because a lot of North American stores stop at DD, and DD is actually not as big as you would think. I heard a lot of people wear a band that is too large and a cup size that is too small. When purchasing a new bra, you should be using the outer hooks. The other 2 sets of inner hooks are for when the bra begins to stretch from use. If you fit in the inner hooks when you first buy the bra, your band is too big. To anyone unsure: Take the measurement of your underbust area. That is your band size (round up if uneven). Then, take a measurement of your bust and subtract the band measurement from that. If I recall correctly, each inch in difference is one cup size. This should give you an idea of your size. Just sharing this information in case it helps someone. I had problems with my bras until I was about 20 years old because I was trying to cram myself into a size DD, since a lot of NA stores stop at that size. Now that I know my real size, my bras are super comfy! (However, I do understand that there are some gals who will be uncomfortable in a bra no matter what since they prefer not to wear them at all.)

Res Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 @Infinite Dreams - yes yes yes! Everything you have said is spot on. The tricky part is undoing public perception that DD = huge. I’ve had friends get accurately measured and still not believe what they’re told. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rezzy Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 I'm not sure if thongs are just less popular than they were when I was in high school and college fifteen or so years ago, or the women in my social circles just all outgrew them.

Let's talk about periods to scare the guys away lol. I got off mine like...nearly a week ago now and I still have to empty the bathroom trash to get rid of the bloody pads. Am I gross for just throwing them in there without wrapping them up? It's just me here. And the cat, but he doesn't know or care. Last one was like a month late because of stress I guess, and I was worried there was something going on that wasn't normal, or I was the next Virgin Mary and it was the second coming of Jesus... First one to make the guys puke wins I'm so mean xD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
