Someone Notices Rihanna’s New Lingerie Is Different For Thin And Plus-Size Women, Posts Side-By Side Comparison

I agree with Meowton, but really, the importance of female clothing issues is often underestimated. I understand ending a war is more important (I was literally born into one), and I understand very poor women cannot even afford to buy and wear ANY bra. But does that mean that I have to live a miserable life because there's no support and no clothes that would emphasize my otherwise beautiful body? Life is not eternal and youth is short. You have to enjoy it while you can, but without proper clothes, there's something that's missing. It's about self-expression we're talking about, not about some self-entitlement and exaggerated demands.

Your post isn’t offensive but it is objectively wrong. Alysse wasn’t offended, she was pointing out a flaw in someone’s supposedly inclusive clothing line. It’s not a big deal, but you’re like panicking about it. I guarantee that chick cares about at least one of those issues you pointed out, as it is possible to care about more than one thing at a time. I care about the shutdown and Syria, probably more than many people, and I still get frustrated when I can’t find a bra in my size. It’s f*****g annoying. I see my tits and think, “I’m pretty normal looking, my boobs are common enough,” but then go shopping and struggle to find a 34DDD that looks good and isn’t all grandma looking and have to pay $100 for it. It must be nice that you don’t have that issue, congratulations. I don’t even know how you’d handle it since you don’t see the difference between being offended and annoyed and you can only care about one thing at a time. That sounds crippling.

Come on, Hans, I'm prrrretty sure you do know that people can care about multiple topics! Just because this particular topic does not affect you, doesn't make it useless. And no, I'm not offended by your comment, just shaking my head because we all live in a complex and diverse world and therefore we all deal with so many layers of political implications of all sizes (pun intended) on a daily basis.

I read your response, Hans. My response to you would be that you yourself are part of the discussion now too. Despite how absurd you think it is. I agree that it’s silly to expect Rihanna to understand lingerie when she’s just a singer. But her makeup line caused a dramatic shift towards inclusiveness in the beauty industry which you know nothing about because you don’t wear makeup. Like it or not though, beauty is firmly tied to women’s issues and the fact that an average woman with a slightly substantial chest like me can’t find a bra that fits is a f*****g shame and a problem. And it would be a bigger deal to you if you had to, as a man, drop upwards of $100 to get underwear or just wear underwear that you know doesn’t fit like most of us. Don’t minimalize a woman’s discussion when you aren’t even a woman and have zero clue on why it’s frustrating. Normally I love your comments, so it’s not a personal attack. I like you, but your original comment isn’t correct.

Right, because each of us gets to care about exactly one issue, and one cannot spare even a thought for anything but that one issue, which makes this a poor choice of what to care about!

If you don't have boobs you really shouldn't comment. You think that because it's about bras it is not important? If you had to wear a tight belt around your ribs everyday maybe you would be a little more concerned. And it also sounds like fat shaming, I mean big girls trying to look sexy? Big girls have been put in there place by society for years by people that sound just like you. Don't try to be the expert on how important things should be to women.

Why do people click on a post that has a title clearly explaining that it is complete nonsense, then commence to complain that the post is nonsense? Baffles me.

You're right Hans, finding the right size bra is so not an important issue, considering everything else that's going on (and I'm not being cynical).

Well to be honest, men are the ones starting and keeping up wars. Why should woman try to save them all the time. Basic facts. So maybe you just let us have our own wars. Where we are further than the male. Peace out man

Idk Hans sounds like you're pretty offended by this post, why don't you go be offended by the more important things you listed instead of worrying about someone else's observation about lingerie?

It also seems that the examples are cherry-picked - another common tactic of the perpetual offended.

Pretty sure nothing about that bra was meant for support anyway

Good point. It is just impossible to do identical design when there is a huge difference between the sizes. It would not be wearable.

Nothing about that bra design was meant to be functional 🤣

A bra with a velvet heart over the nipple and a string holding it to the remainder of the structure is in no way a functional garment 🤣

You always say that, and I have to wonder why you're here in the first place. Well fitted bras are IMPORTANT.
