Well, I finally took the advice of several posters here and just purchased my first bra from Lane Bryant (they are having a sale right now, ladies!). The smallest band size they carry is a little big for me, but I can make do so I’m thrilled. This thing is certainly a marvel of mammary support engineering. Shoves everything up and together in a serious way. I tried it on for my boyfriend last night: me: Honey, I bought myself a new bra today him: Wow! Just…WOW! That’s really…uh…entertaining! And you know I’m not even a boob man. Wow! At which point, in his fascination, he almost involuntarily reached out and squeezed what he was looking at. SQUEAK! SQUEAKY SQUEAKY SQUEAK! :eek: Seems Lane Bryant puts a small “air bag” into the bottom of the cups, to act as a push-up pad sort of thing. Almost sounded like a dog toy. He is greatly amused by this. Needless to say, boyfriend has now found a new hobby. All I can do is hope the novelty wears off soon. ---

Is he chewing on it yet, or still just squeezing? Perhaps he’d like a bra of his own? ---

I hadn’t seen you around much, **Cherry2000**. You still rock for paying my subscription, and you rock even harder for having a bra-toy. > [@featherlou](#): > > A straight man who’s not a boob man? Oh, reeeeally. I’m straight (well, questioning, but sure I’m straight or bisexual) and I’m not a boob man. I’m more of an all-around body guy. The girl I’m going to try to score with today 😃 (we were each others’ first sexual partner) has breasts that are virtually not even there. I love it; she looks _stunning_ naked. ---

I _adore_ the LB Cacique Sensual Curves underwire bra in cotton. I buy them by the dozen & it’s my “everyday” bra. The best underwire I’ve ever worn - bar (or bra - hah!) none. I remove the lil pads unless I need serious cleavage-ization. VCNJ~ ---

Yes, bf has always been a “leg and ass man”…which is ironic that he is with me, the double D girl. We went out tonight, and I wore the “squeaky toy”. Let’s just say that it attracts attention. Jeeze guys, it’s just a bra. How interesting can it be? Maybe I should demonstrate the squeaky part to everyone in the bar. Think I could score free drinks? 😛 ---
