I do not like this subtle mind-fuck change.
I don't either, but I'm sure we'll all get used to it eventually

Because it's supposed to help 'seat' your breasts properly in the cups, if I recall correctly.
I think I will give this a try the next time I put on my bra, to see if it makes much of a difference.

I know, in about three days I'll be like, "Wait, WHEN were the numbers on the right side?"

I actually find that re-seating my breasts once the bra is on is much more effective than the leaning thing, but I think gravity works extra hard on me.

Did you know, $16 billion is the amount of money spent annually on bras worldwide?

Seriously, I would never have guessed that. But then I don't have the average amount of bras either.

I didn't know that actually. With that much spent each year, you'd think that each woman would own a lot more than 9 bras.

That is what I usually do. It feels kind of weird to just put on a bra and go, without wiggling everything around first.

I agree. Unless there is a lot of women buying diamond plated bras or something that hike up that number.

Agreed. I think I've spent maybe $20 (yay clearances!) on bras in the last 2.5 years. I should really get some new ones, but eh. I don't hear my boobs complaining.

I know! I have like 3 bras that fit right now, which all together probably cost me like $40.

Grrr! yeap they totally was on the right they even when I first came here tonight. Why would they do that to us? (

I think the most I've ever spent on a bra was $50, but that was using a gift card that my boyfriend's mom at the time gave me. I normally spend about $20 or so, but I don't go bra shopping very often.

The average bra size now is 36C. Ten years ago, the average was 34B.

Huh, I'm average 10 years ago.


I have to wonder tho, how much plastic surgery may or may not play in to the average size now.

I wonder how in the world that happened. Connection between food, preservatives, etc. Oh great I was average 10 years ago but below avrage now.

I've probably got between fifteen and twenty-five bras, most of which I spend a bout $20 and a couple which I spent up to $50 (Victoria Secret) but I keep them for probably longer than their lifespan's supposed to be. I usually will get 4-5 a year and only retire them if I need to.

That is a good point, I wonder if they distinguished that in their facts.

Probably that and just people in general are getting bigger. I know from like the 1700s to 1900s, most people didn't get any taller than around 5'10", which is pretty short compared to people now.

Does anyone have any questions so far?

I have to laugh when I hear that 5'10" is short, because I'm 5'2", lol

No, I just meant that now there's a lot of people around 7 feet tall.

I always say I need new bras, but I never listen to myself. At any rate, I usually end up whipping 'em off as soon as I get home. It's nice to be freeee.
