cmotherofpirl Posted January 9, 2010 Posted January 9, 2010 Its a dumb idea and it assumes all women actually wear bras, and assumes also that its anybodys business.

Moosey Posted January 9, 2010 Posted January 9, 2010 I don't like people making me feel like some sort of trollop who doesn't respect herself. I thought it was harmless and I didn't think the guys would care to look it up. I only posted it because it was vague and I didn't say "HEY EVERYONE! MY BRA COLOR IS BLACK!" I do like L_D's status a lot though. Okay I'm done

homeschoolmom Posted January 9, 2010 Posted January 9, 2010 I think when we (as a society) asked a certain presidential candidate whether he was wearing boxers or briefs-- AND HE ANSWERED-- we lost any shred of decency we had left.

Nunsense Posted January 9, 2010 Posted January 9, 2010 (edited) Well, to me it is a little like when I am asked for my birthdate to sign up for something - I always make one up. I am not giving out my real birthdate to anyone (one reason is identity theft), and I am not posting my real underclothes color either, so I just said white. And the reason I bothered to post a color at all, is because the woman who sent me the invite to do this has been deeply affected by breat cancer in her family, and she asked her friends to do this to show support. I did it more to please her than anything else. As for guys getting all excited at knowing someone's bra color (and lots of them might be made up ones like mine anyway) -- well, really, a little maturity wouldn't go astray here. There are a lot of things in life that can be viewed through carnal eyes, but a little will power over thoughts is possible too. I am not saying whether this is a smart thing to raise breast cancer awareness, but it has gotten people talking about - so I guess it worked in some way! Edited January 9, 2010 by nunsense
laetitia crucis Posted January 9, 2010 Posted January 9, 2010 Well, this thread totally answered my confusion about the colors... I didn't really care to ask the people posting the colors, but wow -- the comments from some status updates were really odd. New brain wrinkle. Thanks!
