I imagine both sets of straps hold the weight. There is probably a mathematical formula to determine the ratio of each, dependent upon breast size and shape, that someone who is not me should research. And then report back.

With Pictures...  Lots and lots of Pictures.  All in the name of science.  I'm willing to do so, can I also get government funding for this project?

Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

Of course, the smart wife may start having "accidents" with your clothes shortly thereafter...

That was tried. The ensuing counter strike made her surrender.  :O

I do the laundry.  If she wants special care for something, she is required to set it aside.

FTR I run the wife's bras through the dryer.

A particular cartoon I read daily, Wapsi Square, has a VERY busty character that the author catches flack for because of her breast size. I have learned a lot about the issues large busted ladies (and some "men?" have with bra fittings from the comments. He apparently has well endowed friends/lovers with this problem.

Sorry to bust the APS bra strap research committee before they even get started.

I see what you did there!  And I laughed.


It's either that or the 'duty cycle' of the elastic in a bra is different than a waistband.

i.e. repetitive jiggle wear is harsher than static stretch.

Also, a few years ago I took Doggy Mommy (not to be confused with "Bitch") to a boutique known for fitting bras and catering to the local showgirls.  Did wonders for her.

I tried to get a job as a bra fitter at Victoria's Secret using my medical background but I was still turned down. I am pretty sure it was discrimination because I walk with a limp!!   =D

Did you have the limp when you went in the place, or just after you left?
If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

I do the laundry at our house. I learned long ago that color is less important than fabric weight when it comes to sorting. And I can keep a shirt looking brand new even after five years of washing.

My wife's laundry techniques are.....disturbing....
Impressed yet befogged, they grasped at his vivid leading phrases, seeing only their surface meaning, and missing the deeper current of his thought.

The limp before, the black eyes and fat lip on the way out.  =(   =|   ;)
