I just wrote a book reply about different types of bras and why we wear them to a guy I know on here.

You dude’s be so confused about what we do and why, huh?

I love being mysterious
*oogly fingers*
@Starcrossed He started asking what the difference between sports bra and bralettes was and are they only good for small chested girls. I was like… well… lol

@JustGoneNow we’re so complex, but glad we have choices beyond The Wonder Bra from the 70’s and 80’s that is beyond unflattering and uncomfortable. I hate bras, but get custom fit ones at around $100-$140 a pop. Love my girls but buying proper attire for them is expensive! 🙁
@Jeephikelove oh, I can imagine. good bras aren’t cheap. my girls are little and I don’t really need the support, so cute… cheaper bralettes work perfect for me.

You can see the mystery in their eyes when they pick one up. ☺
@ReneeT my fiancée gets sick of me pausing shows and movies to sound hound a song I hear that I don’t know, though. lol 😂

@JustGoneNow As am I. I love to write and compose things. And I get inspiration from things I listen to and see. As i would think you do too
@ReneeT I do.

I think that would've resonated better with a woman having a shopping cart waiting and all 🛍 y'know
@SW-User facts. 😌

They are so clueless. 😂
@Jeephikelove left me the gift of anorexia. ugh.
Jeephikelove · 51-55, F
@JustGoneNow oh no! I’m sorry!
@Jeephikelove it is what it is. I’ve mostly been able to get it under control this year with the help of my fiancée. It’s always gonna be a little bit of a fight but for not I’m better.

I’m amazed I’m not the guy you’re referencing
@JRVanguard to be fair, there’s honestly a lot to it and it’s confusing even for a lot of women. I just happened to model when I was younger (only commercial modeling like catalogs and parts modeling,) so I know it from a even a clothes designer perspective. you wouldn’t believe how many women are in improperly sized bras.

@JustGoneNow This reminds me of MA school(which is a 94% female field) during the OBGYN chapter
@JRVanguard ha ha.

I rarely wear a “real bra”. Bralettes or silicone covers are so much more comfortable
@itsok love bralettes. and I’m small, so I don’t really need the support. that actually was part of his question. lol

It’s complicated. I don’t think a lot of women understand it. 🤷🏻‍♀️
QueenOfTheNerds · 41-45, F
@JustGoneNow Lol. I saw it. 😌
It was a very good explanation.

Please post it so we all can become enlightened !
@melbeacher

there are many different kinds of bras and I could be talking for a week. I’ll just briefly go over a few. Bralettes are great for us small girls that don’t need the support of a full bra. They are comfy, non restraining and don’t suck you in like a sports bra. These bras are almost useless to C cup and above because the bigger the boob the more support needed. Push up bras are great for us small gals because it gives us enough lift that it actually gives the impression that we have a little more than we do upstairs. Padded bras are good for girls looking to fill up her dress a little better or for all us gals (big or small) that have nipples that can cut glass, so we aren’t uncomfortable showing off the goods. Sports bra’s are great for working out or any kind of physical work because they support you by sucking you in and keeping your boobs out of the way of your workout but they can kind of get uncomfortable after a while and give us all uniboob to greater or lesser degree based on boob size. I also like them to sort of smooth me out and make my boobs disappear in baggy clothes like a hoodie, so I can be low key and kind of androgynous when I’m out and about, and not wanting to draw any attention to myself. And finally your full cup regular kind of bra, that’s good for any boob shape or size but is a lot more than most of us small girls want or need. Last of all is the underwire bra, that gives extra support to our bigger boobed sisters. Strapless of course is great for strapless dresses but typically works best on smaller boob sizes. There’s way more kinds and varieties based on boob shape, size, clothing style, and even body type but that’s a little bit of a behind the scenes for ya.

Also the numbers before the cup size are the band size and they are literally the size of the back band of the bra but they have an effect on cup size as the volume of boob is more spread out with a bigger band causing the cup size to be smaller as a result.

@JustGoneNow Thank you so much. Very interesting !!
@melbeacher there’s honestly a lot to it and it’s confusing even for a lot of women. I just happened to model when I was younger (only commercial modeling like catalogs and parts modeling,) so I know it from a clothes designer perspective.

But why would guys really need to know about bras? 😯
@caccoon they are endlessly fascinated by us. 😌
yes, yes you did 😅
@deathfairy it was seriously good info, though. it’s confusing even for a lot of women. I just happened to model when I was younger (only commercial modeling like catalogs and parts modeling,) so I know it from a even a clothes designer perspective. you wouldn’t believe how many women are in improperly sized bras.
it was good info, and i agree. @JustGoneNow
