You may be green, but what about your bra? Triumph International is making women’s sexuality even more appreciated, turning donated lace and underwire into Refuse Paper and Plastic Fuel (RPF). RPF is a cool form of energy that costs a lot less than Joe-average-coal and produces a hell of a lot less carbon dioxide. Sounds ...
The lingerie line “Hope” recently released TV ads instructing women to use their “natural charm” when breaking bad news to their boyfriends. Crash your boyfriend’s car? It’s okay, just make sure to take your clothes off before telling him. Spend all of his money? Use the same trick and you’ll be fine. Whatever you do, ...
Women in politics are constantly trying to prove their worth in Washington. They are expected to fit in with the men and keep their wardrobe appropriate. But what happens when wearing a simple white button down shirt creates discomfort and unwanted male attention? Well, for Rochelle Behrens, a political lobbyist, she decided to do something ...
Men find bras annoying, but they have no idea. Their only difficulty comes in the removal. We have to deal with the entire brassiere life cycle. Our excitement upon receiving our first adult garment quickly waned when we attempted to put it on for the first time (they’re called training bras for a reason). Posters ...
In spite of my ample bosom and the praise it has garnered me over the years, I have always been jealous of small-busted women. They can wear no-back, halter, and deep neck tops without having to worry about how their bra will suit their outfit or if they need to buy a new one with fancy straps. ...
Laura Jacobs, an artist, has designed underwear, bras, and corsets made from antlers and shells. They are beautiful to look at and are made for art’s sake.
And it’s not just from implants. It’s also not because there is more obesity now. By some stroke of fate, women’s boobs are increasing in size.
Models may be stunning but to claim they show that “perfection…varies” is ridiculous. This is what Love Magazine is claiming to do with naked supermodels (such as Naomi Campbell and Kate Moss) on their next cover.
A weather-beaten eye cast over the media: HatManJim looks at a story in the headlines and as a feminist with a penis (Menimist? Femi-meni-mist? I just believe in women’s rights, I’m not having gender-reassignment. OK?), attempts to map the sexism inherent in the press, without inadvertently saying anything lecherous about breasts.
Equmen is a company making bras for men! Well, not quite, but I have to wonder how well these form-fitting, supporting, slimming tops would actually work if the man wearing it wasn’t already buff and skinny like the models (see picture). Equmen makes “Core Precision Undershirts” as well as “Precision Underwear” described as: Optimising support, improving posture ...
