Let me preface this by saying I am a man, and smoked a little too much, so I’m sitting here thinking… what is or was the original purpose of a bra? Weight support? Vanity? Covering the nips so people’s eyes met your eyes and you can have a normal conversation? Like what’s it all about?

    Just wondering, but why did you use punctuation in the last half of your comment, but not the first?

      I think she wrote the pros and cons as a vertically stacked list, but formatting forces it into a paragraph, unless you add a double space at the end of the line.

      So this:

      Advantages of bras: Look nice (if you’re into that look, which many people are) Keep your nipples from chafing Support/containment for larger boobs Keep prudish people from being mad at your nipples Can be worn without a shirt for sports if they cover enough real estate When breastfeeding, help catch/absorb leaks

      Becomes this:

      Advantages of bras:
      Look nice (if you’re into that look, which many people are)
      Keep your nipples from chafing
      Support/containment for larger boobs
      Keep prudish people from being mad at your nipples
      Can be worn without a shirt for sports if they cover enough real estate
      When breastfeeding, help catch/absorb leaks

      Or, with the addition of bullet points:

      Advantages of bras:

      • Look nice (if you’re into that look, which many people are)
      • Keep your nipples from chafing
      • Support/containment for larger boobs
      • Keep prudish people from being mad at your nipples
      • Can be worn without a shirt for sports if they cover enough real estate
      • When breastfeeding, help catch/absorb leaks

        Aw damn thanks for fixing that! Yes I wrote it as a list and yes I forgot the double space. Still haven’t figured out bullet points in lemmy

          No problem at all - and bullets are just a star and a space, then your text and then the two spaces at the end, and then repeat :-)
