View Full Version : FYI: A lady's corset provides minimal protection against a dildo attack.

Okay, I'll preface this by saying that my wife and I are in the SCA (medieval research/ re-enactment society), so you know that we're not quite right.
My wife was working on making a new corset. It's a very nice corset. Heavy cotton on the outside layers, canvas on the inside, steel boning running vertically at points. Those of you who know my wife know that she is very busty, so this thing was built to contain her ample assets. Lacing up the back, very stylish. Neutral colors, so it can be worn with pretty much anything.
Okay. I am an armorer. Not a very good one, but not bad. I do leatherwork, mostly. I fight in all of the armor that I make- it is fully functional. Well, I am toying with the idea of making an armored surcoat- a knee-length shirt with plates sewn in between several layers of cloth. It will be flexible, but also very strong, since I'm using steel plates.
My wife, after completing her project, let me try it on to see how the design worked, assuming we could redo it with larger pockets on the inside to hold the plates instead of the boning. It was very firm. I was impressed.
It was then decided that we should test it, to see how well it worked. After a few slaps on the tummy with a hairbrush, she grabbed the closest thing to hand that approximated a 'real' weapon- a double headed, 18" ice blue jelly dong.
Never mind, that's not important right now.
She slaps me with it a few times, and then fetches me a blow to my ribs that ends up leaving a bruise even through the corset. It still stings if I breathe deeply.
So fellas, a word of warning. If you ever want your lady to hit you with a dong, be sure to wear something a little more substantial than her underwear. Leather is definitely preferable.
Forget the dong. It is only tangential to the moral of the story.

Must have been a +2 Dildo of Smiting. I know I never ran across one of those in Diablo II or Baldur's Gate. I am curious that your wife's character class is apparently expert level in beating with meat. Usually that's a guy thing. I suppose you could consider it a flail, though.
So, next time you stride out on the field, are you going to forego your usual long sword?

Oh, c'mon, people! Can't you see? The corset being worn by a man, the hairbrush, the dress Strongbow is making (sure, he calls it a surcoat! Read his description - it's a dress!) What we have here is a classic thinly-disguised plea for understanding, and an admission that Stonebow is a cross-dresser! (Not that there's anything wrong with that!) :D
But I would like to ask just what "real" weapon is being approximated by said ice-blue jelly dong?

What does it say about me that when I read this thread the phrase ding dong, the witch is dead, the wicked witch, the witch is dead. . . keeps running through my head?
I don't believe that steel corset stays are period, and I won't even begin to imagine the 14th century equivilant of an ice blue dong. Back in the day, my boyfriend once gave me a short blunt object suitable for thrusting. I think I still have it up in my attic. I would have given it back to him after we broke up, but his new girlfriend said he wouldn't need it. It's probably pretty brittle by now, after not being used all these years.

Limestone chafes. *shudder* and produce has to be continually restocked or else...well, therer's just a limited shelf-life.

Because I am proud of my handiwork on this particular piece, I will humor those who have requested pictures.
Remember, this was a corset I made to wear under Medieval garb, so it's not what one would expect to see in a Frederick's catalog. It's very plain-cotton and canvas. No lace, no see-through parts. It's a utility garment.
Still, though, I think it looks pretty good (http://www.ipa.net/~naoutar/corset.jpg). It laces in the back (http://www.ipa.net/~naoutar/corsetback.jpg), and the lacing eyelets (http://www.ipa.net/~naoutar/corsetdetail.jpg) are hand sewn-no grommets! I am actually quite proud of this effort, and I'm now starting the dress to go over it.
Mods- all these pictures are work safe.

Well, it wouldn't matter at all. They wouldn't believe it and they'd substitute it with whatever story they wanted. All the more reason to make up a really good one on the ride to the hospital so they'll buy it.
