No Bra Day

O BRA OR NOT TO BRA, THAT IS THE QUESTION ... APPARENTLY! 🐹 πŸ’— πŸ’— πŸ’— πŸ‘™ πŸ‘™ πŸ‘™ πŸŽ€ πŸŽ—οΈ πŸŽ—οΈ πŸŽ—οΈ πŸ₯•


Do you have a PPOL β€” Personal Pig of Lingerie β€” to advise you on such matters? Apparently, an astonishing number of ladies are wandering around in the wrong bra size. Who knew? πŸ‘™πŸ€”

But seriously, folks... No Bra Day, observed during Breast Cancer Awareness Month, is associated with raising awareness of breast health. πŸŽ€

And there really is a piggie connection: guinea pigs can develop mammary lumps and tumors too β€” both females and males β€” so regular hands-on checks are a useful part of keeping an eye on piggie health. 🐹 ❀️

The modern brassiere also has an interesting history. In 1914, 20-year-old New York socialite Mary Phelps Jacob patented a brassiere after discovering that her fashionable evening gown and the rigid corset underneath were simply not on speaking terms. πŸ‘—πŸ˜ 

β€œBring me two of my pocket handkerchiefs and some pink ribbon,” she reportedly told her maid. A little strategic sewing later, they had created a light, backless undergarment that suited the new fashions and offered considerably more freedom of movement. Jacob patented it, and the rest, as they say, is lingerie history.

We should all have a maid we can summon at a moment’s notice to attend to our needs.

Oh, wait. The piggies already do.

Wheek! Wheek!
