In America, if you wear a top that outlines your shape, and you have big boobs, people assume that you are using your sexuality to get what you want and you don't have any brains or talent.

I don't know where you've worked, but I'm just thankful that none of the people I worked with/for in the US would ever have made such silly assumptions.

I totally agree that it is silly.

Recently, when I was in the US, my sister and I were talking about bras and she said that the purpose of a bra is to hold your boobs in and keep them from jiggling. Very different from the attitude that I've encountered in the UK, which is that the purpose of a bra is to show off your upper body by lifting the girls up and out.

I think that the 'out there and in your face display of boobs' is more like advertisement than attractive, at least to my eye. I think there is something beautiful about a woman who accentuates the positives with confidence, and who has a natural bounce and wiggle, both top and bottom.

My ladies do need support, but I much prefer a natural cup to a restrictive type of support cup. I do wear a more 'bounce' resistant support bra for work though, as it wouldn't be looked upon as professional here otherwise.

Oh man, all this talk about minimizer bras reminds me how one of my exes thought it was just HI-LARIOUS to prance around the house wearing them as hats.

You would see the biggest gift would be from me
And the card attached would say

I can't imagine that unless he had two heads. :) Strange people you have been married to? :)

If only. At least then it'd have been someone who was considered, by some, to be funny.

Jim, he'd fold the two cups under to form one hat. And I can not believe I just wrote that. ;D

LOL, yeah! I just hope I didn't give any men reading weird ideas. And if I did, I hope their wives forgive me.

As long as no men are geeky enough to use the bra as an instant Princess Leia wig/hat......

Q. What did the bra say to the hat?
A. You go on ahead - I'll give these two a lift!

Precisely!   ;) 
A woman who worked here had the most massive set I have ever seen, they never fit in her tops and were always spilling out all over the place.  I was at first a bit shocked to see someone at the office with her knockers hanging out, but then I realized how hard it must have been for her to keep them contained!  She wore normal tops, but the girls seem to have a mind of their own!   What could she do other than wear turtleneck jumpers every day?  :P
