The compilation of her interviews with Craig are an utter delight.

    Ladies, no one is stopping you from whipping them out.

    Except other ladies. And creepy dudes. And back pain. And gravity.

      for the women who are confused: ‘mansplaining’ is short for ‘man explaining’. hope this helps!

        This used to be a joke about how women are intellectually inferior and easily distracted. It was meant sarcastically, but as some asshats actually believe these things, I’ve decided to remove my comment.

        Instead, please enjoy this limerick:

        Once a man, his wit astray,
        Misogyny in words, led him away.
        Regret took its toll,
        He sought a kinder role,
        Apologies now pave his new day.

    He also says “they wear them” when the question was if they like them. The two are not necessarily mutually exclusive. Make him wear a bra and ask if he likes it, then interrupt him and say he is wearing one.

    This morning I stood there almost completely dressed and then I thought,

    I should wear a bra. But I don’t want to wear a bra. But if I don’t wear a bra I will be walking around with my hands curled in so my forearms obscure my chest, all day long walking around curled up like an insecure T-Rex because that’s how I posture myself when I don’t wear a bra.

    If OTOH I do wear a bra I can walk like a normal person, which will retain my self-esteem so although I don’t want to wear a bra, I put one on anyway.

    There are really comfortable bras now, wide bands, x across the back, they’re supposed to be a game changer. Especially for women with bigger boobs. However… I forgot what the brand was.

    Are bras uncomfortable like underwear is for guys? I.e. i don’t really love wearing it, but if I just let things flap around it’s kinda a mess.

      I can’t relate to how men’s underwear feels, but bras are super uncomfortable. I only wear sports bras and I still hate them. It’s harder to breathe- there’s a constant pressure around the rib cage.

      I only wear them when I have to, and even then sometimes I’m like: “fuck it, I’ll deal with the looks” (mostly from other women who are with men- and my tits are small!)

        Soprts bras are the way. I hate em too, but they are the least shitty option. I messed up my ribcage wearing wrong bras.

      Love wearing a bra. The only time I don’t is whilst in water. The pain of not wearing one is ridiculous. That being said, some bras are just awful and uncomfortable and you need the right one, or two, for the right occasion. I hate wearing pants though and will happily wear nothing but a bra in my own house.

    • In my experience if I get one that fits right they’re not that bad. Some styles are just uncomfortable regardless, but bodies can be shaped in a lot of different ways, so of course preferences will vary just as much.

      Only thing I know about bras is some have wires which can literally stab you when you wear them.

    I was just listening to her book Wishful Drinking this evening! The Princes Diarist is next. She was such a funny, insightful writer. Her dark humor regarding pregnancy is especially good and cathartic for the phase of life I’m in now.

    A wonderful voice was lost when she passed.
