Boobs can't always be free

I had this idea that perhaps I should carry a spare bra around with me.

I've got plenty in my drawer that aren't getting much use. What can I say? You know, if something's on clearance and well, it's pretty close to my size....eh, it'll probably work. Or that's what I tell myself. I don't want to try it on - hell no! It looks like it'll fit, what, should I hold it up to myself and look in the mirror? Eh, fuck it, I'll buy it anyway because it's cute. And then it sits in my drawer and doesn't get worn, or it gets worn once and I either have a bad day of strap-adjusting or boob lifting, or I have trouble breathing, and it gets tossed back in the drawer. So why do I buy bras that might not be my size? Sometimes it's a matter of wishful thinking. I guess now, finally at the age of 27 I should accept the fact that my boobs probably aren't going to keep growing, ya know? I mean, they're a good handful, but my hands are pretty small. The other thing is that even though there are universal charts for measuring your bra size, all manufacturers seem to vary. I personally like the ones that run small, so I can buy the next cup size up, look at the cashier like yeah, that's right!

But anyways, why in the hell would I carry one of these spare uncomfortable bras around with me? Well, simple: there are women out there who desperately need them, and they might as well be put to good use. You know a woman's in a bad way if she's got nips the size of cocktail weenies that are just hanging out under an ill-fitting shirt. The kind that make you sort of grimace and try not to look like it's bothering you. It makes me sad. I don't think it's on purpose. Going bra-less in the summer, wearing a halter top or tank is one thing if you've got small boobs, but this just aint right. And twice at my new job, women have come in asking me for something or other with this problem. This goes along with another story I have about people off the street being drawn to me because I'm a target for the homeless/mentally ill/crackhead type (and as you remember - anyone selling anything). I'm really not the type that doesn't care about these people, and I'm not trying to be insensitive. Other people have told me to NOT give money or anything to these beggars, but since I'm not using these bras anyway... I could at least offer the ladies some uhh... support?

You are a woman...

T.H.O. rules.

And I can say that because I've got B Cups of my own...

OK I'm guilty of the cocktail-weenie thing, even when I'm wearing a bra. But then again, I usually buy those cheap bras that are jammed in a box, and I take my chances on whether they fit or even if they do the job they're intended to do. so I guess I'm only wearing them for psychological reasons. But yours won't fit me. Mine boobies are HUGE.

I didn't mean to diss on the big boobied ladies in general, I hope I didn't come off as a bitter small-boobed snob!
I'm sure you take much better care of your breasts than these ladies, chicken!

Tittie Hard On

Big boobies, small boobies, it doesn't matter, boobies rule.

Which reminds me of a friend of mine who has such bad luck.

He could fall into a barrel of tits and still come out sucking his own thumb.

Nervous said...

Ha! That's a great "bad luck" quote!

I have to agree that boobies rule.
