@stanleybmanly I don’t regard the bra as a “tool of enslavement”. Clearly, it is a useful and functional device of great benefit to most women. Like a hard hat or steel toed shoes, or a cup for men.
Yeah, those breast certainly need some protection while hitting the button for the Bluetooth while driving, or to hold them in place while getting that milk and eggs from the market, and they really need to have control typing at their computer keyboards, if it were truly like a hardhat, they would only be needed for when actual peril was at hand. I don’t need a hardhat when driving, taking out the trash, grocery shopping, and certainly not typing, a bra doesn’t equal the need of a hardhat. ~~
@Dutchess_III I choose to wear a bra because I look seriously sloppy without one.
And is that because you came to that conclusion, or it was the prevailing ideology society drummed into you since you were a teen that you have been exposed to so long, you do not think any different or that it was not your original thought?
Not wearing a bra also creates other hindrances for me, some that are painful.
Wearing bras to some women are painful and uncomfortable but they are still encouraged to wear on, just get a better fit.
Lots of smaller breasted women can, and do, get away with not wearing one.
Sure, I agree, a lot of women even as large as 36c and I have seen some 38c who could rock it without a bra, when have you seen anyone encourage them to ditch the bra if they did not need one? If they DIDN’T wear one, it would be a source of scorn or gossip.
It is not a form of bondage for me, although I would seriously prefer smaller breasts.
As I am sure some of those women in China who bound their feet did not see it as bondage, even if it was uncomfortable or had lasting effects, so to blanket name it bondage is not a call you can make.
I also choose not to wear make up most of the time, unlike my mother’s generation.
If women are truly attractive off their personality, wit, and charm, what purposed do putting that stuff and all the chemicals in in on the face in the 1st place?
If it’s what we choose to do it’s OK.
Why not afford other women that too, be it they bind their feet, stretch their necks with brass rings, tattoo their whole back, whatever, if that is what they chose to do, then they were not forced into some subjugation by men.
And why would you think that girls in dresses would be less tempting to a pedophile?
I merely put a feeler out on how some might think, even if it is not correct. Just like those who believe their child is in great danger walking to school or to the store alone because they will get snatched up by some stranger and sexed up. The facts state if their child gets sexed up by anyone it will be someone the child knows, but people want to ignore that fact as if they are scared to admit they have more to worry about from friends, acquaintances, and family members sexing up their young’uns then some nameless, faceless stranger.
