I went bra shopping

It used to be females were XX.

It used to be society had a definition for a woman.

It used to be women could do her business in a restroom without a hairy man in the next stall asking to borrow a tampon.

It used to be women could strive for blue ribbons but now have to quietly bow down to men and settle for participation ribbons.

It used to be women could get dressed in a locker room without a fully intact XY picking up our panties that fell on the floor.

It used to be little girls and adult females didn't have to worry about creeps sniffing us or going in for some touchy feeling in front of national news cameras.

It used to be women garnered some respect.

It used to be women walk into any store and grab a bra off the rack with our sizes clearly labeled A, B, C or D... Apparently, size A women are having to endure yet another slap down. There is no more size A. Sorry, ladies, you've been eliminated. You aren't worthy enough to have your size category and are now separated from fuller sized women. You have been down graded to merely small. Small. Why is that, huh? Huh? Tell me.

Men won't give you respect when you act like men and dress like whores.

Destroyed from the naming rift…

It is likely discussed during Festivus’ Airing of Grievances.

That’s pretty much on point.

Doubling the labor force didn’t help society.

I agree but here is a caveat.

I used to think I was just a normal human woman and that went on for a really long time, years in fact. The last 10 years have been an eye opener and that is another “in fact”. It so extremely so ‘in fact’ I no longer have a right to being a human and aged person...at least of get VA care in Pittsburgh.

I wasn’t aware of my downward spiral until I had a problem and went to the VA. On this particular visit I went to see if there was any way I could avoid vomiting early in the am after eating dinner at virtually any hour. I had, myself, found if I ate anything before 5 or so pm I wouldn’t vomit at all.

Being 84 yo had nothing to do with it in my mind. Amazingly I was so wrong, I found out my real problem, the one nobody talks about is that I am actually so old I am not worth of penny of anyone’s time. And it’s not just me...it’s all of us who are now considered too old to qualify for much of anything in the medical field or any other field.

What do you think of that? I think it is a severe slap down, especially considering how able most elders are capable of many activities until they aren’t one way or another.

It is severe slap down because what do I then do about anything that can even be “cured”. Really an ultimate slap down and it done by the 40 (or so) yo “Nurse Practitioner”.

One of my degrees was the Family Nurse Practitioner and I never heard of this type of comment by an NP or anyone who taught us what we needed to know. I have actually not heard it from an MD either.

What do you think of the 70, 80 and 90 ys old still having fun and living life but having minor problems not necessarily associated with being “old” but being considered not worth the effort being so “old”.

Do you know why God created Adam before Eve?

God did not need a woman standing there telling him how to make Adam.

They made their own beds, and now they can sleep in it, alone.

On bra size A....after 34-odd years in the military or associated, I can’t that I’ve seen more than three ladies who might be in this size category.

> What will be the next slap downs because there will be more.

No doubt.

The things you list first are the result of decades of liberal social policies, mostly voted for by women, and prior posters have covered that ground more than adequately.

I just want to address your complaint about A-size bras getting labeled "small".

I'm a guy, but over the years I've known, dated, and had lengthy serious relationships with A-size women. My ex-wife, the mother of my daughter, was A-size on a good day downhill with a tail wind, except when she was nursing she edged toward a B.

A-size women endure a lot of jokes and criticism but IMO it's undeserved. There's nothing wrong with small titties, they're just small, that's all. Perfectly serviceable and IMO they can be just as sexy as big titties, just more subtly. In general small ones are more convenient a lot of the time.

As to the labeling, well, us guys have endured "small", "medium", etc. labeling of our private parts, and never had the luxury of an A, B, C, etc. classification system, despite a similar need with regard to underwear. It's one reason a lot of us have opted for boxers rather than briefs -- briefs are a crap shoot with regard to genitalia fit, whereas boxers are the male equivalent of a no-bra loose blouse for females.

Which is to say, I feel your pain, but it's not only yours.

I hope your day gets better from here. Cheers. :-)

Au contraire! It’s the liberal freaks of ALL genders who got this rolling./s

Just essentially pencil erasers upstairs.

My best friend, an ER doctor, recently passed away, (miss her dearly), but you made me chuckle when i fondly remembered that I called her Pirate’s Treasure, because she had a decent booty and a sunken chest.

And there was no denying that she was a real woman. (Miss here dearly).
