Question for the women in your lives

[OldBlueLady]

Here's one to tickle your fancy.....having lunch yesterday with my baby group friends (the kids are now all 23!), I was greeted with a question....it wasn't "how was your holiday?", after not having seen them for three weeks, no, it was "how do you put your bra on?"

Now, the upshot of this was that out of 4 of us, 2 put it on what I call normally, that is, doing it up at the back, and the other 2 put it on back to front, do it up, then twist it round.

So, I am interested to take this research a little further, especially as, having asked the question on FB, it seems that the way I've always thought was "normal", seems to be the minority method.

Please ask your ladies do they A) put it on and do it up at the back or B) put it on the wrong way round, do it up then twist it round?

I am interested to see the outcome!

I'm not sure that's a question I would put to Mrs RHB as she would undoubtedly want to know why. Luckily I already know the answer. For the first 20+ years of marriage it was the 'normal' method. Nowdays it's the back to front manoeuvre which is very much in vogue.

An observant husband RHB, though you could have told her why!

Sorry OBL but most of us are only interested in how a woman takes a bra off

 

[OldBlueLady]

Yes, I appreciate that, but chances are it will follow the same method! :raspberry:

My wife uses the B option. I didn't need to ask her, I see her do it most days

 

[rigsby]

Yes, I appreciate that, but chances are it will follow the same method! :raspberry:

When any lady is undoing her bra then option B in reverse in front of a man is a no no. It should always be option A, with grace and with a little bit of cheek.

There are some women I would prefer to keep it on

I'm confused.....You would prefer to keep your bra on ?

"Which way do you do your bra up? Why? well there's a woman on ShrimperZone who wants to know and has been discussing it on facebook. Yes, I know you hate Facebook, but........... ".

Yeah, that would easily get me a simple straightforward answer.

Have you considered option C a front fastening bra?

 

[OldBlueLady]

Have you considered option C a front fastening bra?

Yeah, they're generally not very comfortable!!! I did ask what about the strapless ones that generally have some kind of "sucky" edging to stay on - they're practically impossible to twist round but apparently they still do that with these!

No, wrong response to the "why" - it's there's a woman on SZ who was discussing this with her babygroup mums, they've known each other over 20 years and just discovered that 2 of them do it one way and the other 2 a different way! So, she's asking around to get a bigger picture!

Well I'm glad I already knew the answer!!

OBL could we have video of you putting it on front to back and vice Versa, and then have a poll which is the best way :winking:

Errr.....no!

Errr.....no!

Boo!. For your survey, my partner is option B. ( so she tells me! ).

There is, of course, option D of no bra but I think that's not an option where age and gravity are factors
