Whining about the bra...

This is a funny way, that I have of complaining about the bra...at least my own perspective...each to their own...Enjoy!

I miss being just a girl,

with no b***s.

I mean really, all they do 

is get in the way of things.

Sure men love them, but some 

of us, gals, hatem.

Can we be blamed?

Once puberty hits, 

there is no hiding it.

I mean, no matter what you do,

they just pop out!

And boys go crazy,

while at least I wanted to hide.

And then came the talk,

with my mom.

So awkward yet then came 

the bra.

I could not comprehend,

why this thing,

would become part of my life...

So the time, to get a bra,

and go to the store

with my mom.

The clerk asked, if I knew

what size, and

all I could do was shrug...

To this day, I hate the fact

that without a bra,

I become bait.

And so, each day,

as I wake, and know 

that I must get up and dressed,

I look around, for the bra,

and make sure it covers all.

So uncomfortable and itchy,

worse when the underwire comes loose!

Sticks into your skin,

and if you try to pry it loose,

you get all these funny looks

cause your hand is inside your bra!

I mean, come on please,

what else to do, put up a sign,

Look that way, please!

Such a bummer and yet a necessity

to wear a bra, day in and day out.

So I miss, being a child, that had 

no worries, about dealing with b***s.

when I looked almost like

a boy, but still had a girls body.

I know, opinions differ on such a topic,

but my main complaint is dealing with

b***s, I mean sure, I fed my baby

when she was a newborn, but after that,

nothing much more to do,

so I go on complaining, 

about the fact, that as a woman

I must continue wearing a bra, or else!

This is so funny! Yes, I've had the underwire issue, they can get so twisted if they get into the Normal wash load, I've worn 'em wrong side out and that seems to work until they must go the way of all "things" eventually - in the trash. My main complaint is the crumbs mine have caught by the end of the day! I could 'restle up a whole new batch of cookie/chips/cake/donus with the debris I've caught some days! This was a delightful read.

Lol. True..or when a piece of food goes on down and you sneak to the bathroom to take it out

You have captured every thought we women have ever thought about bras! Amazingly thorough! I love the part about going shopping for the first bra -- I completely forgot about how that goes, but you got it right. I myself have not worn a bra for very much of my life. It's a ridiculous requirement. Why don't men have to wear a bra when their man-b***s get even larger than mine? No fairness in the way women are expected to do lots of things for attractiveness only. Good rant!

As a woman I understand the struggles of wearing a bra completely! I loved this poem and it's comic relief, keep up the good work and keep on writing.

I love this, it expresses so well whats being a girl and having to hold such a necessary evil and the ironic of the situation.
