Erin Go Braless

From tiny gals with itty-bitty bippies to larger ladies with super-dooper droopers, we curse the “men” who design underwire iron maidens. My “pointers” don’t bounce (as a friend observed), so why submit to torturous braziers? I’m glad they don’t droop – makes body surfing easier, though surfboard owners argue, “Rudders help." Despite chidings from my sister (estranged now; I don’t miss her), I saunter through life in comfort. From 32A to 44 Triple-D, who will stand unbridled with me as we create a “bonfire of the vanities”? On a huge wooden statue of Genghis Khan we’ll place our bras – strap them on and dance in a delight only primitive tribal ladies know. You can add girdles, chastity belts too, and every foot-crunching pair of shoes. On St. Patrick’s Day we’ll march proud in a parade, singing, “Erin, go braless” all the way!

LOL, wow, that would sure be a sight for sore eyes! Actually, Sue's boobs are pretty big, but she hates bras and never wears them (she said to tell you that despite that, hers haven't gone south yet!!!)
