girl stuff behind the obligatory lj cut...

Period rant.

I'm one of those dames who takes the pill three or four months without the week off of hormones so I don't get a period every month. Well, this month is break month, so I've got my period. Boy, do I have it. Not heavy, but CRAMPS! I HATE CRAMPS!! I hate the rest of it, too, but cramps are the worst...Yuck. I hate being a girl.

Bra rant.

What the hell is the point of an A cup bra having underwire? There's nothing there to support, really, so why the piece of coat hanger under my tits? The extra support only makes what little is there slightly more perky than it would be without the hardware. A man musta come up with that idea...

Then there's the padding/no padding debate. Bras in my size either have a matress worth of padding/shove-em-together-to-make-em-look-bigger fortune cookie looking things or are as thin as tee shirt material. On the padded extreme, one looks obviously padded and false, particularly if one doesn't fill up the cups with their business. On the other extreme, if one gets a case of titty hard-on, one's nipples are so prominent through the thin material that one could cut glass with one's erect nipples through it...Me, I prefer the middle ground. Hanes her way cotton back hook no underwire bras are just the right amount of padding. And, they are notoriously hard to find, likely cuz everyone else likes em, too. Is everyone in Kenosha a 34 A for Gods' sake!??

Colors are also an issue for grrls who belong to the ittybittytitty committee. White, black, or beige. In the cotton hanes her way white or grey. More colors are available with that damned wire stuff. Anyway, I found some colored bras without the confounded wire that aren't terribly padded, either! Hanes her way has a new line that has soft cups without wire and vasarette has a "wireless" line now, too. I got plum, that funky lite flourescent lime sorta color and one that looks like a groovy shower curtain pattern from the sixties in turquoise, white and purple flowers! If the girls could talk, they would be SO EXCITED!!!

Alright, enough venting. Time for a hot bubble bath with The Communist Manifesto and then bed.

Re: boobage...

I've noticed that, the skinny youngster with big fat hooters. I'm thinking bra help is a big factor, though some may be implanted. I had a roommate who was a little 5'3" 90 pounder and she was all boobs. Hers sagged mightily at 20. Certain industrial strength shape and form bras would give her a more rounded shape up top.

I lost in the ass lottery, dammit. I always had a flat ass up until about the past year. I'd love an ass that sticks out! As well as hips. I have absolutely none!! Ah well... I guess the boobage makes up I think...
