Bras
Goddamn bras were invited by Behelzebub himself!

I love love LOVE coming home and removing said item...before removing rest of clothing. Chuffing things. That feeling of sweet sweet relief is indescribable!

I also love being a girl and having peripheral vision. Mr Mogg thinks I'm witch as I always catch him doing something he shouldn't be. I always let him do it for a few moments, just enough time for him to think he's getting away with it and his confidence grows THEN I SNAP HIM LIKE A TWIG ahem....

Ummm...
Everyone has peripheral vision. At least: I do and
*checks genitalia to make sure*
Yup. I'm not a girl.

girls...
...have a wider angle of vision compared to boys.

@stubblychin
Really? I've heard that girls have slightly better night vision, and that men are slightly more susceptble to glaucoma (ie tunnel vision) - but isn't the width of your visual field simply to do with refraction and stuff like that?

women
have better colour vision. And I swear that's behind the love of shoe variety.

Men are far more likely to be colour blind - it's very rare in women.

Women may have better vision
but they still can't read bloody maps!

<sub>Disclaimer: This is a sweeping generalisation. Some women may be able to read maps just fine, it's just that I've yet to meet one.

Other navigational aids are available</sub>

^hpft!
My 3D spatial awareness is shockingly bad but maps are fortunately 2D, so from a sample size of 1, you are wrong! Also, my co-driver (male) got lost on the E50 motorway across Europe. Twice. It's a straight road.

I can read a map!
Very well actually.

Unfortunately my mother is useless - I once had her accompanying me in the car while I went to look at some goats I was going to buy. I pointed out where we were on the map and where we were headed - our exact route and simply asked her to remind me when to turn as we approached the roads.
I began to drive off and she asked me, "Um...where are we?"

How can someone not be able to find themselves on a map - not an OS map (which if you're in the middle of nowhere I can see would be tricky) but a STREET MAP!

Shortly after that she invested in SatNav....which she can't use because she doesn't understand that (bless her, complete Luddite) and she won't drive anywhere she doesn't know either - pointless buying SatNav then...No. I borrow it.

You need a better-fitting bra, then.

What Bob Todd said
You shouldn't notice you are even wearing a bra if it fits well. Thing is, it appears nobody really knows the right sizes. I once got told I was a DD cup size. "Eh?!" And getting measured often is good incase you've changed weight and need a new size for a comfortable fit.

6 of one
Girls have wider peripheral vision but men can apparently see further, so Mr Mogg would just have to sit far enough away from you so that he could see you but you couldn't see him. Although that may be akin to shutting your eyes in the middle of the playground during hide and seek...

there is nothing in the world
that compares to the feeling of sheer bliss you get when you take off one of those hideous over-the-shoulder boulder holders.
you think you like taking your bra off? try being a 46 GG

Smash Monkey
Snap :)


And you'll prob agree it's not because the bras don't fit, it's because having a tent wrapped around your ribcage for 12 hours a day gets a bit irritating and constricting to say the least! Especially when said boobage is big enough to remind all of the opening scenes to Raiders of the Lost Ark and need to be kept in control!!!
(Mogg Questioned her own sanity on, Mon 17 Mar 2008, 19:50, closed)

yes!
they fit just fine. in fact, they fit on my head. the intense amount of pressure needed to prevent your boobs becoming a fleshy knee-warmer, however, also means large red strap marks on your shoulders, red under-boobage, yanking underwire out of your armpits and the groaning of enough synthetic whalebone to make greenpeace feel very, very nervous.
