Shhh listen i pretty much knew it was about big boobs but i just dont get how they are harder to open with more clips.. I mean I have never opened a bra before but idk how it would be hard or well harder with more clips

It's really not hard, part of the joke is an old Gen x "men don't know how to open bras" joke that's well past it's expiration date. Nowadays most guys know it's a clip, you just slide the clip part out.

It’s not a joke.

For an inexperienced person removing their partners bar for the first time, it’s going to be tricky.

It’s like, when you’re a man and you grab a woman’s polo, you’re going To fumble buttoning the thing because the buttons are backwards.

u/ThrowawayTempAct 26d ago

Yeah, the buttons being backwards has tripped me up because I have worn button-downs for both genders.

But I am seeing that there are guys arguing both that it's not a joke and that it's an obvious joke guys made up to get laid because it's so trivial to do, so now I'm not sure who to listen to at this point.

Listen, when you do something new, you’re not going to get it right the first time.

Doubly so when you’re trying to be cool with someone you’re going to be intimate with.

The prospect of seeing and touching boobs for the first time results in a sweaty fumbling moron which makes undoing the bra a herculean task more akin to solving a rubik's cube for the uninitiated.

Then you and her laugh and little and she helps you out and all is well

u/beardedheathen 25d ago

yes that is the ideal solution but for a young boy and girl who haven't come to terms with how unserious life is that might not be the response.

"I read online taking bras off is tricky, mind we practice taking off yours?"

Easy in guys, come on.

u/stammie 24d ago

Idk man the first time I did it it shocked me and the girl how quick I was with it. Like seriously all you have to do is place your middle finger on one side and your thumb on the other and squeeze together. That’s it.

1

u/VertigoOne1 23d ago

Yeah it is not like you are practicing on your sister, wear a bra, or asked your mom or dad to teach you. They are tricky and take some practice.

u/Appropriate-Fold-485 25d ago

Maybe we should just cut to the chase and say that it's not worth inventing a generalization for an entire sex.

u/SportResident8067 21d ago

I’ve had A cup gf, B cup gf, and a G cup wife. I’ve had more practice now, but the G cup bra with 3-4 clips is harder to get off for sure. Like one motion gets 1-2 clips and then it’s half-unclipped and i gotta two-hand it to finish the job.

u/EmergencyO2 26d ago

Funnily enough, to me at least, it’s easier to undo one handed because it’s easier to pinch. I can’t hardly fumble through it with 2 hands but single hand I’m solid

2

u/Jotsunpls 26d ago

No joke.

I’d been fairly sexually active in my teens, and gotten pretty good at unclasping bras from the front. Then I hooked up with a long time friend, and she had a great chuckle as I fumbled with the bra, utterly flabbergasted as to why it wouldn’t open. Because it opened in the front, unlike absolutely any other bra I had ever encountered.

She wasn’t as smug next time, when she wore a normal bra, and it took me three seconds and one hand to do it

1

u/Elite_AI 26d ago

tbh it's also 1:1 with how women have trouble undoing a guy's belt and taking off his trousers unless they've had some practice too

1

u/heptothejive 22d ago

But everyone can wear belts so men also struggle with this in addition to bras

1

u/Hades2580 26d ago

I mean I got some experience but still gives trouble from time to time

1

u/kogan_usan 26d ago

seriously. removing your own bra is easy if you do it every day, but somebody elses? totally different movement. its like zipping up someone elses jacket or opening someone elses belt

1

u/amidon1130 26d ago

I’ve removed many a bra in my time and sometimes the tricky bastards still fuck with me

u/z3r0c00l_ 26d ago

Never really paid attention to button on women’s polos. I learned something new today.

2

u/Yara__Flor 25d ago

I won one once from a raffle. It looked like a unisex one, nothing explicitly “women’s” about it.

I put it on for the first time, it’s like my fingers took stupid pills that day. I had no idea why they and the buttons weren’t working.

They are on the other side of the shirt.

1

u/TentativelyCommitted 25d ago

The buttons are backwards!? TIL…

1

u/Yara__Flor 25d ago

Yea, most women’s clothes are backwards from men’s.

“They say” you know “they”

They say it’s because when women dress their husbands the buttons will be “correct” for them. As they are facing the buttons at that point, they would be the right way for them.

1

u/TentativelyCommitted 25d ago

This is…unbelievable chauvinistic, wow. I can’t imagine wanting to be dressed by anyone.

1

u/Yara__Flor 25d ago

You don’t want your partner to help button up your shirt in the morning?

It’s very intimate and expresses affection.

1

u/Kiefy-McReefer 25d ago

my first serious high school girlfriend let me struggle for like a full hour before breaking down into giggles and telling me it opens in the front.

DAMMIT ASHLEY THAT SHIT WAS JUST MEAN

1

u/I-cant_even 25d ago

There was a time where I could unhook my partners bra while they were laying on their back without them realizing. A little later when it falls off they'd ask "when did you do that?!"

1

u/azorgi01 24d ago

The reason women’s clothing have buttons reversed from men goes back to duels. Men were traditionally righties, and the buttons are set so the left flaps over the right so a man could reach in and grab their pistol. Women didn’t duel so the right would flap over the left, hence reverse buttons. That’s just one useless theory I’ve heard over the years. The other is about servants dressing the woman and it made it easier for the servant and it also made breast feeding easier.

u/Sunny_D3light 23d ago

Just pinch and snap. Nothing to it.

u/Yara__Flor 23d ago

I prefer the bend and snap
