ani d and bras

[mtgirl]

ok first, today i listened to untouchable face by ani difranco, the fuck you and your untouchable face song. really always thought the song was great, interpreted it as refering to an ex, but this time i thought about how it would apply to my semi-current situation of knowing a really kick ass guy as well as his girlfriend. whom i like, but she's not really my type. by they are forever. every line in the song worked for me. i hit rewind a couple of times and sang it loud. sorry downstairs neighbors! ok now the bra part. does anyone else (yah i mean chics) have this issue? i can't stand not wearing a bra. and i'm sure it has to do with the unwieldly (is that a word?) size of the damn maracas, but it just drives me crazy! i'm putting my bra back on right now. i guess i could never be a full on hippy.

[takemyhand]

Don't know the song you're referring to, I can only speak on the bra issue. I f**kin hate them, it's off as soon I get in from work, rarely wear one at home, but they're little so it's not uncomfortable without.

kate, are you stoned? just thought i would ask. I can not wear a bra... but not in public, unless i have something really big on.... i had to go braless to a show last summer because i was sunburned, and it felt sooooo weird! but sometimes, i just can't wait to get the fucker off. so no, i don't have a problem with it, except in public.

weird.

i sure am not stoned. but i might get stoned! i will eat so much if i get stoned. i really shouldn't get stoned. i don't have much weed left. hmm... oh and that's another wierd thing. i luv that feeling of taking my bra off, but if it's off for awhile and i'm not like going to bed i tend to put on a very comfortable bra. damn noises in my house!

i luv hobbits.

[13throwcenter]

ah yes... the feeling of taking it off.... that in itself is almost worth having to wear it in the first place. you know, i've never had issue with my breasts, never wanted them to be bigger... if anything i'd like them small enought to be able to wear a t-shirt braless.... that's kind of sexy in my book.

[mtgirl]

yah sometimes i think it would be nice to be a guy and not have to deal with the damn things at all. unless of course you wore a bro!

i luv hobbits.

[takemyhand]

lmao......shit, I can see him wearing it now. /images/smile.gif

It would be great if we didn't have to wear one and they still retained the perkiness for our lifetime.

anne

[13throwcenter]

wouldn't it tho, anne? perkiness goes by the way side... and the bigger the breast, the less perk... i'm in no way BIG, an average C girl... big enough to not quite fall in the PERKY category. I was much perkier as a pre-partum 34B.

[mtgirl]

shit yah. sometimes i think youth is kind of a silly thing.

i luv hobbits.

[ProfessorFrink]

this boobies post is really entertaining!

[takemyhand]

well perkiness went out the window when during pregnancy, this little b thought she'd could get by without wearing a bra for most of it. I'm a dumbass. /images/smile.gif

anne

[_om_]

hey that song is great. she says "fuck you" with a lot of disdain in a couple parts. I like it.

I always wear a bra. even to bed. I don't feel comfortable unless I have a bra on. The more compressing, the better.

[mtgirl]

boobies! it's a fun thing to say even if you aren't a guy. frink i hope you leave this post appriciating your freedom from bras. yeah! wma is on! shit i luv this bass line! it makes me think of sarah! it is so fun. bu-bu-bum-bum-bum-bum

i luv hobbits.

[ProfessorFrink]

yes, I have freedom from bras. but I can never escape the burden of a large penis. sometimes I wish my whole package would be smaller, just so I could sleep comfortably on my side.

[takemyhand]

lmao.....oh you're too funny. /images/laugh.gif/images/laugh.gif

BTW...not laughing at your large penis, just your response.

anne

[mtgirl]

wow, i guess i'm not the only one! anywayz, that ani. she kills me. i tend to listen to the live fuck yous from living in clip. what fun. such talent.

i luv hobbits.

[mtgirl]

:D i think pregnancy would be extra braful for me.

i luv hobbits.

[13throwcenter]

oh and *what* a burden it is.

[mtgirl]

((((((((((((frinky))))))))))))))
wow i feel so bad for you! could i send you a fruit basket or something to ease the pain? hehehe! and you know what else! you should be glad you never have the experience of having your underwire poke thru the damn fabric and start poking you in the side and then your damn bra is broken! and also, who's with me in the can never find a bra that fits right category?

i luv hobbits.

[ProfessorFrink]

you'll never know the pain of taking a shot to the balls.

[mtgirl]

fair enuf. balls are off limits by all means. i guess i won't have to get my prostate examined all the time when i'm older too, that's a good thing. but with the family history of colon cancer, i will have to have a damn camera shoved up the down shoot all too often if i live that long.

i luv hobbits.

[takemyhand]

I don't imagine that's pleasant, I believe childbirth wins out though, epidural or not.

anne

[13throwcenter]

oh my! how ironic.

yes... the poking wire thing sucks... not only does it hurt, it means you'll have to go shopping to replace it. what a pain in the ass, shopping for bras. ugh. but then... shopping for panties.... you can't try them on, so... it's like you either stay with the same ol same ol because you *know* they fit right, or you take a chance and buy some that LOOK like they'll fit right, knowing full well you may have another pair of panties in your drawer that you will never wear and can't return.

[ProfessorFrink]

childbirth can be rough I guess. I wouldn't know really. although, there was that time I ate alot of cheese...

[mtgirl]

hmmm, nice move anne. ya gotta believe that childbirth might be up there with ball smackage.

i luv hobbits.

[takemyhand]

oh man frinks, you're on a roll tonight. /images/smile.gif/images/smile.gif I imagine the cheese movement probably felt somewhat like childbirth, but nope, we win. /images/laugh.gif

[mtgirl]

yah i go straight up vicky's secret bikini. that's all i've got. how boring. half of them are the same color too. :) indifference just came on:) how's your boot treating you there sandi? oh yah, a good pair of shoes is a wonderful thing. i am definately not an exlusive top notch shoe wearer tho. i go thru a lot of payless numbers and flip flops. i've been dreaming about this one pair of danskos for a while now. but i just can't foot(hehe) $100.

i luv hobbits.

[mtgirl]

hehehe! :D

i luv hobbits.

[13throwcenter]

no, i'm not a shoe snob when it comes to price/quality/source.... just picky about the ones i choose. i have so many pairs of shoes in more than one color just because i don't like very many of them. sometimes it's a pain in the ass being me /images/crazy.gif



Don't just live the length of your life, live the width of it as well. ~Diane Ackerman

[mtgirl]

oh yah! in that sense i am definately a shoe snob. there are few shoes that meet my criteria. this whole dansko thing is really pissing me off cause i can't seem to find a decent substitute at all. shoes. fuck em. especially in the winter.

i luv hobbits.

[margaret ann]

i'm not sure if i've ever heard an entire ani difranco song before.

about the bra issue, i don't mind wearing a bra, but i usually don't wear one when i'm at home. i always wear one in public, though i could probably get away without wearing one. even for a large frame girl like myself, i have relatively small breasts. i just barely fill out a B cup. but i'm quite happy with them, which is odd because i basically loathe the rest of my body.

"you miss too much these days if you stop to think"...i think too much

[jamijams]

I hate them, I *always* wear a bra....even at home, most of the time when I sleep too. you ladies should try the victoria secret bra-let or whatever the hell they are called, like a mini sports bra without underwires. very, very comfortable for at home wear. of course, I don't have big knockers, might not be so comfy for our large breasted friends /images/wink.gif. a long time ago, i read an article where winona ryder said her grandmother told her that if she wore a bra all the time, even to bed, they'd never sag. don't really subscribe to that theory, i just dont feel comfortable without one. but that feeling of taking it off, *especially* if you have a boy there, that can scratch your back right under where the bra was, that is the *best* thing! bras suck. oh, and so do pantyhose. torture devices. and picking out panties? what a pain in the arse! that whole comfort vs. sexy vs. will they shrink vs. old favorite. man! /images/mad.gif
kate, buy the dansko's. they are the best shoes. SO supportive. I am a total shoe snob, and I hate to admit it, but I do mean in regard to quality, which typically goes along with price. comes from working in the footwear industry for four years. you learn how good/bad shoes affect all your muskuloskeletal system. i love shoes. oh yes, i do /images/laugh.gif

[Highway23]

I'm not really one for bras, they tend to make my pecks feel as though they are covered with duct tape and being strung from a lightpost. /images/wink.gif

It depends on what kinda mood i am in as to whether or not I like a girl to have one on. I think that it's sexy when a girl does not have one on in the morning and is wearing a t-shirt with either flannel pants or really small shorts /images/smile.gif Yummy

But then there are times when I'm ready to play a little bit, and depending on the sexiness of the bra...and if it's the right mood it will certainly get the heart going...

and I really hate the word 'panties', something about it just really bugs me. Even if some model would say "these are my panties" or "take my panties off"

that just doesn't do it for me....i'm just a guy who likes 'thong' or 'underwear' or 'g-string' or 'string bikini'...no panties please /images/smile.gif hehee

yah if i get a job one of these days, and find an affordable ticket to hawaii, maybe i will buy those shoes. i have a pair already and i luv luv luv them, but now i want a black pair. also i think they are cute. comfy bras rule. and boys scratching where your bra was is definately great. and as for pantyhose.... i don't even own a pair! i do have some tights tho for under my long skirts in the winter. but yah those things are out of hand obnoxious. i just don't have to patience to avoid runs. my hands are cold cause my brother and i just walked around for three hours. i can't type very well right now.

i luv hobbits.

[mtgirl]

mmm yes i see what you are saying with the panties bit. and jami, don't make me separate you two! i hate that word as well. i usually use the term underbunders. drawls is also a fun one particularly when refering to the male version.

i luv hobbits.

[mtgirl]

yah boobs are fine, what can you say

i luv hobbits.

[13throwcenter]

i don't get the sleeping in the bra thing... i would be SOOO uncomfortable. I guess it's one of those things you kind of get used to, like sleeping with a pillow between my knees.... i definitely notice when it's not there. I had to wear a bra while breast feeding tho, just to keep the little pad in place. It sucked wearing a bra around the clock for 6 months!!!

First, I love Ani and I love that song. Second:

I used to wear briefs because boxers would not cooperate when I was putting my pants on. I have now gone to boxers and my boys are soooo happy with me. I can almost hearing them scream: "We're free!!! We're free!!!!! Free at last!!!! Free at last!!!" But I never could wear them 24/7, I had to wear boxers or shorts to bed. Too confining. But fortunately for me my balls won't be sagging to my knees when I'm 70 because I let them run free without any support.

I can go either way on women wearing bra's. It is sexy either way. I like to see them braless but I do have a fondness for taking them off /images/smile.gif. Leaving something to the imagination can be sexier than not. However I'm more of a nipple man /images/wink.gif

a.d.i.d.a.s.



Kindred to be an American!

[rockrighter]

I wore 'em for all of 2 1/2 years, and then I stopped because they annoyed the hell out of me. I felt obligated because I have female parts. Then I overcame that big honkin' pile of b.s. My friend's mother has a system: If you can hold a pencil under your breast while your arms are up, then support is probably necessary. If not, you're investing a lot of money that could be better spent buying kick-ass records or donated to a worthy charity of your choice. (That's just what I do.) Once upon a time, our next door neighbour's house was on fire and I was in the shower. I didn't have too much time, so I only threw on my shirt and jammer pants before heading outside. I felt uncomfortable because I wasn't wearing a bra. Now, I don't wear one and feel no discomfort whatsoever when out of doors, so it's basically a mind thing. Perception plays a big part of it. I have friends who can hold pencils (or 2 or 3) but still shun the boobytraps. Maybe they'll sag when they get older but beauty and looks are pretty far down the priority scale when it comes to life, if it even registers at all.

yah, thanks to the best-friend-who-is-also-the-ex :) i picked it out. my only qualm is that it is pink, i try to shun all pink things. but yah i thought it was pretty nifty cause the water muffles the sound when you're in the shower so if there are people at your house they don't know what's goin on!

i luv hobbits.
