Hey PDaddy, i dont read the PALS posts too often but i am so glad i read this one..... If you were like my husband, you would come up with a great arguement for your wife not to wear a bra! What a way to get your wife to go around without one, my husband would love that! Too bad for him...........
 
Thanks Samantha, and everyone else! I didn't think this thread would be this popular. But, alas, my wife still wears hers... :neutral:

And Wright, thanks for your wonderful comment early on in the thread.

THANKS ALL!
 
Wow honey, aren't you getting kinda personal on this forum. I didn't know you missed un-hooking my bar that much. The wife is always the last to know. :-D Now that you mention it, I miss that too - but at least you're still interested, you still have your sense of humor, and best of all you are still you, the greatest husband in the world.
 
OOPS! Hope we are not the cause of any family arguments around here! :-D LOL
 
That is too cute!
 
This thread is so good I had to let my wife read it too. :)
I could never undo the straps when I was well. Butter fingers. I think a woman must have designed the do hickie, whatchamacallit, thingy, on the back of the bra. :-D
 
I thought I read somewhere that it was a man that invented it. A very very sick sense of humor he must have had.

AL.
 
Sick and twisted!

Hello Gentlemen! A little info as to who to thank for bras!

According to "HOORAH FOR THE BRA"...A PERKY PEEK AT THE HISTORY OF THE BRASSIERE, by CHERREE BERRY

"The heroine all woman need to thank as they fasten their bras is New York socialite Mary Phelps Jacob (also known as Caresse Crosby). With the help of her housemaid, two handkerchiefs, and a long pink ribbon, Jacob created the first-known brassiere in 1914. No more whale bones.

Woman could breathe! Jacob patented her creation, but when she was unsuccessful at marketing it, she sold the rights to the Warner's Corset Company for $1,500.00 (the patent was later valued at $15 million!) Little did she know that less than two decades later, Warner would dump corsets and solely focus on selling bras".

:-D

take care
lovelily

Well, that explains EVERYTHING!

But still, after all the bra talk (which was fun!) I still miss opening a Coke can without assistance...
 
I don't drink soda's but do still enjoy rubbing my face in a lacy dream. Even if I can't open it. LOL.

.....so.... today, I received even more forms from Social Security to fill out, and one of the questions was asking what I was unable to do, that I used to be able to, and having read this (very) entertaining thread earlier in the day, I burst out laughing, wondering how many of you guys would/could put the bra hook dilemma down....:cool:, and as for myself, I'd considered if maybe down the road I'd want to try sewing velcro to the backs of mine, and decided that just letting the girls loose seems a better plan.

Seriously, I still have finger dexterity, but I am losing strength, and I miss being able to open a bottle of wine by myself ~ and to be able to pull the cork back out after its been opened (was just battling with that)
 
Pdaddy, thanks for this. Its nice to know folks can continue to be otpimistic with a sense of humor. I worry about my husband though...this is going to be real hard for him. For example, I recently purchased a cane for him which he is using around the house. I had to go with him last week to the motor vehicle administration (too much of a task for him right now) anyway, I asked him why he wasn't bringing the cane and he responded that he didn't want to be seen in public with it. Now how do I respond to that? I guess he's going to become a hermit. We're going on vacation in October and I already told him that I was going to look into renting a motorized scooter for him. At least he didn't reject the idea. Keep smiling.
 
Thanks Rose and Just J, that's llfe.. I'm smiling every day!
