The Bra- WWW

The who, what, where and when questions about a garment that women almost without exception, wear daily their whole adult lives, begs a word or two.  The bra is a kind of rite-of-passage, and from the time the simple band type in ancient Greece,  was donned to offer support, it became  the first thorn-in-the-side for women. Why? The first bras were invented for practical reasons and were simple. Women's bodies are designed by nature and her genetics determine the amount of flesh and fat and where it will be distributed on the body. Breasts are meant for feeding infants and in the primitive world, were part of the selection process of males, they thought, to ensure lineage. The more generous the girth, it was thought, the better the choice.  Just as then, today, bodies come in all sizes and conditions. Our brains give us ideas and choices on what we do with our bodies and our thinking now, has become very liberal. Women are no longer using  corsets or cinching in waistlines, or hopefully shouldn't be. There's always Photo Shop that the slick mag uses. We want comfort over glamour. Being able to find a bra for most women, is a trying time. Literally. Not all of us want to go into the back room with a bra expert who does do the perfect job of measuring. But, we all want to know our "size" and then shop. But size of a bra is very complex situation. No apple is precisely the same as any other, to put it bluntly. No one finds  exactly their perfect size. While the size is the one you always buy, from brand to style it differs. Pinch, poke, slip, slide, show and stab are some of the adjectives applicable. I like to feel free of having to chase a strap, contort doing a back closing or suffer wire torture or The Showing Of that no one wants wearing a tee shirt. Well, almost no one. And then there are some ladies who through no fault of their own, have to replace, enhance or remove this body part, in part, because it is because. Like you, I still have not found the holy grail bra. Have you dear lady?
