do you like wearing a bra

[ImagineKate]

So the only reason I wear one these days is because my clothes unexpectedly rub on my nipples and it's NOT fun. I don't have much "heft" or "bounce" yet but that will come.

A nice GF suggested playtex 18 hour bras to me some 6 months ago. They are so comfortable you do not even notice you are wearing one, so yes.  I need a bra since my breasts are growing nicely. I'm maybe small B cup with nice nipples.

i love wearing a bra and always do at home

My boobs aren't that large in relation to my body, but I make the most of them. I wear a sports bra most days so I don't feel all over the place. To say that it's "enjoyable" is not accurate-it's necessary.

There has only been a handful of days this calendar year that I have not worn a bra of some type, and I'm pre-hrt still (that should change soon!)  normally it is just a padded sports bra, but allows me to feel more femme, even if I'm in guy mode (which I still am most of the time for work).  Once they become necessary, I may not like them as much, but I don't think I'd mind them.

How odd this popped up when it did.  Just last night I put on the one that arrived in the mail (difficult to find an A cup in a 40 in. band size).  It seemed on some level, like I had moved through some kind of barrier, because at first the old part of me was not accepting.  However there was a newly opening part of me that was rejoicing that the step had taken place.  My current development has amost entirely filled this cup size.  I then put on a tank top on over it and settled into my armchair for the rest of my new beginning.   Dani

Congratulations Dani, I have that similar challenge of finding a band width and cup to fit.  I am about the same size and growing into a B.  I feel like i must try these things on to be sure but where did find you success on line?

Hi Tessa, I ended up finding it at the Macy's online shop.  They make the search kind of easy because the band size and cup size can be entered, then it is just a matter of picking out the style you like.     Normally I order most of my clothes from either American Eagle or Victoria's Secret, but the one area they are deficient in is the bra area.  I did buy a really nice nice bra from VS, but it is in a C cup, so it remains the focus of dreams when I look into my closet.     Dani

Thanks Dani that helps. I too went to Victorias secret and got my "angel fitting" only to find that nothing fit me, sigh.  I sure know about the stuff of dreams but now i don't need breast forms or other stuffing.  That's for turkeys:-) 

Nothing like looking down and seeing the real deal after forever feeling they were there in my previous shadow life.  Way nice to step out from those shadows for me.

Well, I don't really have much there yet, but I've been wearing a sports bra for what little has developed. It helps some of the soreness and I don't mind wearing it so far. Maybe I'll care more after I have more noticeable results.

Funnily, a female friend told me to enjoy while I can still live without "constraints of society" as she described it - like, if they will keep growing the time will come when bra will become necessary, but meanwhile - let them be free .

interesting how many of us son't really like to wear a bra or don't even think about it one way or another.
i love bras as they help define physically and emotionally what a woman is. what i mean by that, before anyone jumps down my throat, is when you see breasts or a bra, you immediately think woman or girl.
trying to affirm the woman within, i used to enjoy bras just because. but now that i have just started hrt, i too am beginning to wonder if i still will like wearing a bra when i have no choice. but for now, i sometimes forget i am wearing one until i look down and see the two delicious girly bumps...
i don't need wear a bra just yet but i wear one anyway because i love the peaceful feeling it gives me. i wear either an A or B cup (since i have some development already) depending on the manufacturer but a push-up really makes look busty! today i am wearing a regular cotton bra and it still looks pretty obvious. while i look forward to more growth, i hope my breasts won't run away from me too much as i am not sure i would enjoy anything bigger than a C cup!.
for now, i am just enjoying the ride towards womanhood and wearing a bra for me is a must.

I do and don't at the same time. I am pre every thing so I have no boobs yet so I really like the image that I have when I where a padded bra and look down to see a what looks like boobs and other then that I don't have the right band size on my bras

Having boobs really presents different situations, problems, and psychological thoughts, some really nice. The underboob sweat that was mentioned, the extra hygiene involved that one didn't have before they started to develop. Just like the extra care when one has longer hair. It is truly a marvel when you think about it. The whole bra thing is all part of it. Personal choice vs necessity. Keeping the nipples from showing. The extra support. Whatever the reason for wearing a bra, I think it is all worth it as part of showing ones femininity. All aspects of it can be enjoyed in one way or another.

So interesting reading everyones comments on this topic.. After four years of hrt, I am lucky to have substantial development, although I do not wear a bra daily, because I just love the jiggle and swing as I walk or move, for me, that is a far more potent sign of my femininity than simply wearing a bra.

However, during those four years, I DID wear a very tight cupless underwire bra constantly, in order to develop the infra-mammary creases as soon as possible, and that was a great success.

My first ever post, so I just thought I'd share...

Hi,

So to help  define physically and emotionally what a woman is, Hmmm interesting,

Iv not worn bra,s for over two  1/2 years and more likely wont again  as i dont need them  and they dont do any thing for me  for my body shape and size  my breasts are 16 D, or 40  in,s , I spent over 6 months with out them because i injured my right shoulder and neck  and could not get them on so did not bother after that ,

What defines myself is being female and how i look or dont is not an issue,   being born female is what defines who i am  from 67 years ago, so clothes or adornments dont change who i am ,

Heres a detail for you does not having breasts stop us from being women because of breast cancer or we dont have our womb  , so what really makes us women .

Being female to start with ,

even if we are born different or with out some of our body organs,

...noeleena...
