Switching to a bra-less lifestyle is a full on commitment. You have to own and embrace this way of life, deciding to enjoy every moment of it-- good or bad. If you're thinking about taking on boycotting bras, or already have, these are some things you are guaranteed to experience.
1. You hear "I wish I could do that" all the time.
So... just do it? If I can do it anyone else can do it. All you have to do is throw those bras in the garbage, and start the first day of the rest of your life. I'm not understanding what is stopping you?
2. Hello extra money.
Aside from the empowering feeling of freedom, the money you'll save is the next best thing. Instead of buying over priced bras, spend that money on wine, tacos, get away weekends, whatever your heart desires.
3. Rachel Green becomes your spirit animal.
If she can embrace the bra free life style on national television, you can handle this feeling in your average life. Own it, girlfriend.
4. Conservative family members think it's "inappropriate."
Try to contain your eye roll and backlash comments. Some people are never going to change. Let them be the one's to suffer with the boob holding contraption they feel they need to wear every day. You do you and enjoy the comfort.
5. You become a spokesperson for the movement.
Resisting public rants about "Free The Nipple" and the social constructs of a bra is harder than it sounds. I don't care if nobody actually wants to hear about it, I want to talk about it.
6. Pasties are a blessing, but not on a hot day.
Dear God please do not let me sweat these pasties off.
7. You feel like a badass b*tch.
Once you kick that confidence in, you feel like nothing can stop you. You're owning your body. You might as well be Beyoncé.
8. Visible bra straps make you feel uncomfortable.
I know that doesn't feel good. Do you actually think that looks good? Pretty soon it will be the first thing you notice about someone and you'll instantly wonder that they are thinking.
9. You no longer have to deal with this traumatic experience.
You're welcome. Thank me later.
