It's been on since 6 this morning and I'm in agony - band is digging in ferociously to my back. On train home from work (work in London live in the midlands). Train is busy but no one sat next to me.
I reckon I could get of off in stealth - Ninja style and slip it in my bag.
AIBU and should I just sit here and suffer for the sake of bra/train ettiquette?

Are you on cctv, though?

KirstyJC · 30/03/2014 20:58

Would you be able to just undo it? I've done that in the past!

Gileswithachainsaw · 30/03/2014 20:58

Do it. No worse than men adjusting themselves.

GreenLandsOfHome · 30/03/2014 20:58

I'd probably leave it on but just undo it at the back

FunkyBoldRibena · 30/03/2014 20:59

I do this after a long day - slip the strap down your sleeve and once you have done that you can slide the whole thing down your arm and straight into a bag.

extremepie · 30/03/2014 20:59

I probably would lol I wouldn't sit there in pain!

Objection · 30/03/2014 20:59

I'm checking the place for CCTV.

Feel a bit criminal - ly

you need a bra intervention..

emmie31 · 30/03/2014 20:59

I'd unhook , but leave it on, should release the pressure . I could never take mine off completely id look really droopy.

AreYouFeelingLucky · 30/03/2014 21:00

Undo it if you have too but don't take it off. That's odd.

I sympathise because trains are rubbish, I seem to spend my life commuting on them.

AreYouFeelingLucky · 30/03/2014 21:00

There is CCTV.

RevoltingPeasant · 30/03/2014 21:00

Um so what if there is CCTV? Is it illegal? Just dominant revel in the comfort!

LineRunner · 30/03/2014 21:00

I think if you do the down-the-sleeve technique you should be ok anyway.

SauvignonBlanche · 30/03/2014 21:00

Can't you nip to the loo and take it off there?

RevoltingPeasant · 30/03/2014 21:01

Hmm "do it and" not dominant

Objection · 30/03/2014 21:01

Can just undo it unfortunately. I am a lady of large norkage and my top is quite loose. I'll never get it done up again and it will flop forward (bra not boobs) and most likely land on the unsuspecting elderly man in front of me when I stand up

LineRunner · 30/03/2014 21:03

I am quite well norked as well and I have just tested the sleeve technique out and my underwired bra won't fit through it. I feel cheated.

mrknowitall · 30/03/2014 21:03

cant you just go to the loo on the train and take it off ?

Dsheetsbucks9 · 30/03/2014 21:04

Can't you just go and do it in the bathroom?

Objection · 30/03/2014 21:05

Loo is out of order Sad
