Then don't wear them?
If I don't wear a bra my nipples will show prominently through nearly every one of my tops though
Not to mention that for large-busted women, it's even more uncomfortable to go without any support. My partner hates bras but is always wearing one (even in the privacy of our home) because otherwise her boobs get sore.
I wouldn't complain but I can see why you might want some light armor
I’m all for breastplate being part of daily fashion
Welcome to the club? My buddy T-dogis like Mr glass nipples big deal. This is the same argument why woman can't go topless but men can.
Your buddy’s boobs probably aren’t sexualized like women’s boobs are. It’s not just nipples. And there are plenty of other reasons that women wear bras: lift, shape, and believe it or not, even comfort for some of us who are pretty large.
Doesn't this loop back around to saying one does like wearing them then?
Do I like wearing clothes, no. But I wear them to prevent sunburn, cover places that may be deemed sexual exposure, and cover my insecurities. So if someone asked me if I like wearing clothes in public, I suppose my answer is no, but yes. The period where men wore boxers over boxer briefs or just briefs showed that many men aren't worried about wearing underwear for support.
I guess I just wish my boobs were smaller.
Lol you don't know where I work. It just seems cultural and self imposed. I can't think of any male friend who cares what a woman wears. Maybe a few religious whack jobs out there idk.
Not really socially acceptable in many parts of the world.
In solidarity, I'm going to start wearing latex shorts that clearly outline my pen.....and I'm arrested immediately.
Either sexuality is taboo or it's not. Unfortunately, it is still taboo.
Yes, so normal, yet so taboo. I'll write letters to you while you're in jail ;)
A big salty tear. Stand up for what you believe in otherwise life isn't worth living.
That's not an option for everyone. Not everyone is ready to be the difference, to face the social shunning, bullying, gossip, disgusted or lascivious looks or, in some countries, the danger of being charged for a crime. Mostly people just want to continue with their lives - that are worth living to them for other reasons, often just for the life itself - they have only one. And we're talking about such a silly natural thing as a nipple. I do appreciate every brave individual that is ready to break social norms.
Nothing has ever been willing given. Someone had to sacrifice or taken it by Force.
Yes, I think you're right. And not everyone is ready to sacrifice themselves, that's only natural.
I think many don't wear them, while at home.
My gf doesn’t really unless there’s a top she wants to wear that requires it. 99% of the time she isn’t wearing one.
And 100 percent of the time she is fine?
