To Bra or Not to Bra - That is the Burning Question...

in life •  8 years ago 

I'm with you on this. It's a cultural obsession in the west. We've bound our breasts, corseted them, and crammed them into bras for generations now to please the eye of those with power. Or to hide them from those in power. Personally, in the winter, you'll likely find me braless, under a couple of shirts and sweater, even when I go out.

Your point is valid, we've been made to feel so much shame about everything that nature has provided us with. Decency is subjective and no matter how old I get, I always have this voice in my head asking me if what I'm wearing is decent, will I bring shame upon myself? Sometimes I tell it to bog off, but I'm not comfortable. I know I should be, but, DECENCY. It's so irritating being a strong, liberated woman with this nagging constant reminder from your childhood.

Great post, lady, and keep them coming! :)

Oh yeah, I know that voice too. Where did it come from? My mum? My mum's mum? It's just a little voice that's been passed down through generations of women now. Gawd bless those winter sweaters though - makes it a much easier choice!
