I Think I Speak for Most Men When I Say This is a Great Bra Idea!

Magnetic fasteners!

No more this awkward fumbling, trying to see if we’ve hit the right combination to free teh boobies from their repressive confinement! (Hopefully, the design will go mainstream and not be strictly limited to those with reduced mobility.)

Hmmm, I don’t think this is such a great idea for younger, more active ladies. I would be ticked off if I were running down the stairs and my bra unfastened itself and I ended up smacking myself with my own boob or something. It is a fantastic idea for the less mobile though!

If you can’t release the boobies with a single quick movement you need more practice. I hate training aids.

I have my doubts that a mere magnet can hold these bodacious ta-tas – can’t see it doing much unless you’re basically immobile (but for the less mobile, sounds like a great idea!)

heres the actual product:

I can’t quite tell from the pictures but I don’t think it’s just magnetic, I think there is also some other sort of catch. I agree with pbbth, I don’t see how a magnet on its own will stay in place.

That’s kind of what they’re going for. Women who are disabled and who need help dressing can’t fasten a bra by themselves, and it’s hard to fasten or unfasten a bra on someone who is not cooperating. If you need help getting dressed, you ain’t going anywhere.

Dude, tearing the bra doesn’t count as a “single quick movement.”

The text says “magnetic and hook and loop fasteners”, meaning a combination of magnets and Velcro ™. That makes a lot more sense than magnets alone, which would pull apart too easily. What magnets CAN do is catch quickly and hold the bra halves together while the wearer or helper fastens the real fasteners.

As the site notes, the bra is unsafe for pacemaker wearers. You’d also have to be careful about holding credit cards and such close to your chest. I hope the magnets aren’t strong enough to attract random bits of metal; leaning over your desk and coming up with a string of paper clips in your cleavage would get old really fast. Unless you could count on suitable help to remove them, that is :).

In that case lets hope your not a seamstress. Those pins and needles may hurt a bit more.

It’s also impressive.

Not sure if you’re just teasing, but I can unhook a bra as quick as any woman. And it only takes me one hand.

Who said anything about tearing?

Hey “Bra fumbling” is a humiliating rite of paasage that all young men must go through!!

I’ve already delt with my awkward years of fumbling and so should every kid behind me!! It’s only fair.

My design design variation: the bra has a small battery and electromagnets, and a switch to reverse the current. Flip the switch, and it actually leaps off the boobs.

Take it from me, women are less than happy when you try to do it with a box cutter for some reason.

I think the things should just dissolve instantly upon removing a shirt. Too many extra steps.

When I worked for the local radio station, our corporate name tags were held in place with magnets instead of pins. They were pretty powerful magnets, held my name tag in place on a roller coaster ride. I was never attacked by loose paper clips.

Your ideas intrigue me and I would like to subscribe to your newsletter.

I’d like to think a man would be willing to do a little work to get access to my weapons of mass distraction.

Sorry, I didn’t make it past the link saying “SAY GOODBYE TO BACK FAT ROLLS!”

Excuse me sir, but why are you wearing a name tag just above your pants?
It’s held in place by a magnet and slips around.
Good at first I thought you were advertising your pants pet.

Mmmm, back fat rolls. With extra bacon grease.
