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?

Oh, no!! YAB so U!

Keep it on, can't imagine the horror of unleashed norms in public. Or private, for that matter. No need for this!

White rabbit.

Marian. don't you have some pearls to clutch? Grin

MarianForrester · 01/04/2014 10:26

Happy to clutch pearls as long as nestling between my fully cantilevered boobs Wink

I have lost my bra in many a traffic jam in the days before aircon.

I have also given a male friend a lift without removing the evidence from the passages seat Blush

Loving the term "libooberated". Definitely adding that to my vocabulary.

Just to confirm, CCTV couldn't have picked up my Ninja-Bra-Skills.
I didn't wave it around my head or anything afterwards

DD does the ninja removal on the sofa when we're watching telly.

Sometimes she flings it at me when I'm not looking. The fucker is sometimes WARM. Yuk!

My life has been revolutionised by maternity bras. The little release mechanism that means you can have half of the release relief with none of the obvious loose-norkery.

Although sometimes nothing compares to just full libooberation. There's something even better about public libooberation.

I love libooberation, mine are fully libooberated today, somehow never got round to finding a bra.

Tomorrow they have to be constrained, lest they frighten the ladies of the WI.

I have done this before when pregnant and bra was agony.

BOFtastic · 02/04/2014 00:56

I would venture that you don't need a Bra Intervention: IME, a well-fitting bra is generally agony by 6pm.

I find it's the sitting down for long periods that does for it - unless you have an impeccable, ramrod straight posture then you end up slouched and the wires and edge of the bra can get a bit irritating even in the best fitting bra.

Sometimes libooberation does occur stealthily at the office, re: the long periods sat down.
