No More Bad Ideas

my actual real bra size, after i spent the time and effort to measure myself properly and try the sister sizes, is around 30DD. you guys have seen me, i am not busty. the reason i have "double Ds" is because my boob+chest circumference is around 34", a certain number of inches larger than my rib circumference alone, which is around 29" (maybe down to 28 now with the corset changes but i havent re-measured). its the ratio between the two numbers which determines cup size. this is bra size basics for the US market. Asia as a continent uses a different system that involves measurements in CM and also appears to be not actually related to the numbers on the label (bras i order from asia arrive in basically random sizes), and then the UK uses a third system which is similar to the US one but not the same.

anyway like i said i, objectively, do not have large breasts. a smallish-medium navel orange fits in one of my bra cups comfortably. theyre like television nudity sized boobs. you know the ones i mean

Please buy according to your daily size. If there are two sizes available, such as: D or DD, it is recommended that you order the DD one size larger here. Band Size : 34=75 36=80 38=85 40=90 42=95 44=100 46=105 48=110 50=115 Size Type :Asian Size .Please takes one size up for your usual size.For example: 85C in US,90C for this one

28" (my band measurement) = 71.2cm, but im not supposed to order my band size in cm, im supposed to order a 34 band size, even though a 34 band size would be equivalent to 86.36cm, not 75 as it is shown in the text quote from the listing. plus im supposed to add sizes for "asian size" difference. so i have to assume vanity sizing has just gotten really crazy in the asian market and thats why most asian bras that ive seen are extremely padded anyway, to obliterate the actual breast shape and cover it all with foam. there are probably more fitted bras available but they just arent being exported, which is a shame because that size range would be useful to people with smaller rib cages in other regions

This site does NOT try to sell you anything. It is not run by a corporation.

It also does NOT tell you to add inches to your underbust to get your band size. That is completely wrong.

(And every other website out there flat-out lies to you about this. I don’t even know why. But they have all been lying to us since at least the 1960s. It’s no wonder everyone thinks bras are so uncomfortable. All of the “standard” or “official” sizing instructions are flat-out, simply, wrong.)

Do not panic if you get a cup letter that sounds “big” (usually combined with a band size that sounds “small). Just try it on.

You’ll feel super skeptical at first. I did, too. Like “no way. I can’t be a [DD or whatever]. It’s impossible. The calculator must be broken.” But I promise. Just try it.

Americans who do not normally care about international football but fucking love a sport and cheering so we're just hyping whatever team is nearby, like we see a party and just show up and learn the chant. Like sorry many of us don't know shit about soccer but if we see a bunch of people in viking helmets or kilts or holding a bunch of flags and cheering we're game.

TAILGATING!!!!

it is necessary instead to sit down and kinda try and quiet that voice, and then start with considering my physical needs, kinda mentally run through the maslow's pyramid from bottom to top as if I'm dealing with a little kid throwing a tantrum. like, did we sleep last night? have we had lunch? am I lonely? should I call my aunt? do I want to finish the book I've been reading? do I want to boil chicken bones today? what's bothering me? I'll then try out a couple of things that seem likely and while they may not be The Thing it's useful to build momentum anyways.

but like, if I give it space, the answer will float upwards into view and it's usually something I've been putting off for a long-ass time.

and it'll sound So Stupid to the Talking Mind, who has important tasks that it's trying to get done, but we're going to tell that voice that the kitchen will wait while we take down the Christmas tree, fold the laundry that's been in the basket for a week, sketch the idea, call my aunt, whatever it is, and inevitably the Linchpin Task will take about half an hour, and once it's done I can feel the weight lifted off my shoulders.

Linchpin Tasks are sometimes that it's time to deal with The Emotions At The Bottom Of The Pile, which is when a pile of stuff builds up to cover whatever is at the bottom being emotionally fraught. (letters, the shirt I wore the day my grandpa died, y'know, The Emotions)

I've gotten better at identifying when those piles are starting to accrete and dealing with them before they get bad, but like, you gotta be able to identify the pile of stuff your eyeballs keep slipping off because it feels too emotionally difficult to deal with right now, and like, learning to ignore the part of the mind that wants to assign task priority levels is a counter-intuitive way to get things done.

see i just dont think thats true.
