Church Bra Story

This story was demanded after my comment posted on an entry in Mel's Xanga today.  So my apologies of anyone who really didn't want to hear it, and for those who do: Enjoy!

Anyhow, this is my Church Bra Story.  I realize that guy generally should not have these, but it wasn't me wearing it.  I was in church on Easter Sunday a couple years ago, and there was some girl who I suspect was in her late teens who was wearing a one-shouldered top that fit rather closely sitting a few rows ahead of me.  I know that it fit rather closely because I could see her bra distinctly beneath the shirt...a normal bra with only one strap in use, the other inside the shirt.  It looked bad enough from behind, and you could see the derelict strap dangling trapped in the probably-a-size-too-small shirt.

It got worse.  On our way out, I saw her from the front...one boob was a good two inches higher than the other.  I really wanted to say something but decided it was a bad idea what with me being a guy and all.  I didn't want to look but it was so funny looking and distracting that it was hard not to.  Poor girl...I really was hoping someone would tell her, but it sure wasn't gonna be me.

As long as I am alienating everyone who doesn't want to hear it, I have a public service announcement about another right-bra-for-the-outfit issue, which I also posted a while back on the MiniTokyo forums.  I think I sometimes think too much.  I think most of the people around here are smarter than the people I posted this to help, but since it seems related and the one-boob-bra shirt church story seems rather short for an entire entry, I reproduce it herewith.

I have noticed a disturbing trend as hot weather begins to sweep into North Texas. Now, I know that a lot of you girls pay a lot of attention to the clothing you wear, and many of you pay close attention to what you wear with what. However, there has been a disturbing trend that I wish to help you girls avoid.

The trend is that as they have been changing into their summer shirts, girls have been wearing the wrong bras. Now don't get me wrong, I understand the need for clothes which suit the weather. The problem is that lots of girls I have seen around have been wearing bras with very prominent lace or embroidery or something that is raised from the surface. This makes their boobs look very lumpy, sort of like how some bras have a seam that is very visible beneath a shirt, except all over the entire bust (or what portion the bra happens to be covering). The bra may be fine under a jacket, sweater, or a thicker shirt, but it does not work for close-fitting T-shirts of moderate to thin material, especially in lighter colours. It just looks like lumpy boobs, and it looks bizarre.

I certainly don't object to lace or otherwise fancy bras, just wear them responsibly.

Please, avoid the lumpy boob look. Wear a bra that suits the shirt.

Thank you.
