The compilation of her interviews with Craig are an utter delight.

Ladies, no one is stopping you from whipping them out.

Except other ladies. And creepy dudes. And back pain. And gravity.

[–] AnarchistArtificer@lemmy.world 39 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Ah, gravity, my arch nemesis (I have a disability that makes me fall over a lot. I also have boobs)

[–] OneOrTheOtherDontAskMe@lemmy.world 29 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Your ARCH nemesis.

I'll see my way out, thank you.

[–] kuadhual@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Did somebody manage to make Arch the BTW edition?

And other men using the "she was asking for it" card.

[–] greenskye@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

I think this is probably true now, but wasn't true even 20 years ago.

[–] Potatos_are_not_friends@lemmy.world 68 points 1 year ago (1 children)

As a man, I think this is a excellent opportunity for me to mansplain things.

[–] lseif@sopuli.xyz 47 points 1 year ago (1 children)

for the women who are confused: 'mansplaining' is short for 'man explaining'. hope this helps!

[–] BigDanishGuy@sh.itjust.works 14 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

This used to be a joke about how women are intellectually inferior and easily distracted. It was meant sarcastically, but as some asshats actually believe these things, I've decided to remove my comment.

Instead, please enjoy this limerick:

Once a man, his wit astray,
Misogyny in words, led him away.
Regret took its toll,
He sought a kinder role,
Apologies now pave his new day.

dont forget their favorite pasttime of raising children. i dont expect them to know as much as us men.

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 58 points 1 year ago (4 children)

He also says "they wear them" when the question was if they like them. The two are not necessarily mutually exclusive. Make him wear a bra and ask if he likes it, then interrupt him and say he is wearing one.

[–] snooggums@kbin.social 83 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I assumed he was setting her up for the punchline of repeating the question about whether they like to wear them. It comes across as self deprecating humor at his own expense while reinforcing her point.

[–] Soulg@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

Yeah him speaking up made the moment way funnier.

But also man talked, bad man bad

[–] Neato@kbin.social 43 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Ask him if he likes wearing a tie. I don't know anyone who actually enjoys the process of wearing one, just being seen in one. Little garrotes are uncomfortable.

[–] Zehzin@lemmy.world 18 points 1 year ago (1 children)

But I like looking dapper 😔

[–] GregorGizeh@lemmy.zip 19 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yes but do you like wearing them, aside from social interactions? Do you relax at home fully suited up where nobody sees you?

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Auto erotic asphyxiation doesn't count.

Fun fact: the first modern brassiere was two jock straps sewed together.

[–] EatYouWell@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

That's kind of a jock strap.

I know a guy who likes to wear bras.

[–] Kase@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I know a guy who likes to wear pants

[–] Zess@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Wrong. His original question to her was if she wore one, then she turned to the audience and asked the ladies if they liked wearing them. He thought she was about to ask if they wore bras and preemptively said "they wear them."

[–] LemmyKnowsBest@lemmy.world 48 points 1 year ago (1 children)

This morning I stood there almost completely dressed and then I thought,

I should wear a bra. But I don't want to wear a bra. But if I don't wear a bra I will be walking around with my hands curled in so my forearms obscure my chest, all day long walking around curled up like an insecure T-Rex because that's how I posture myself when I don't wear a bra.

If OTOH I do wear a bra I can walk like a normal person, which will retain my self-esteem so although I don't want to wear a bra, I put one on anyway.

[–] ax_xa@lemmy.world 28 points 1 year ago

An insecure T-Rex is cute while also being extremely dangerous.

Before he moved to the BBC, Graham Norton had a late 90s/early 2000s show on Channel 4, which (amongst other things) featured random shit off the internet.

I swear, half the weird internet stuff would be prefaced with 'So, Carrie Fisher sent me this email- '.

There are really comfortable bras now, wide bands, x across the back, they're supposed to be a game changer. Especially for women with bigger boobs. However… I forgot what the brand was.

[–] yourgodlucifer@lemmy.world 17 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Sports bras?

I woulden't say they are super comfortable but way better than a regular bra

[–] Neato@kbin.social 16 points 1 year ago

I know someone who wears Tomboy. They say they are very comfortable and still provide enough padding up front to be sightly.

The Bralettes have an X back.

[–] AnalogyAddict@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

"Comfortable" is still only in comparison, though.

[–] EatYouWell@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I'm sure Torrid carries them.

What is that disembodied hand around her throat in the third pane?

[–] NeoNachtwaechter@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago

Just her neck and some streak of light.

[–] SkyeStarfall@lemmy.blahaj.zone 11 points 1 year ago

I think that's called "skin"

[–] iheartneopets@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

I was just listening to her book Wishful Drinking this evening! The Princes Diarist is next. She was such a funny, insightful writer. Her dark humor regarding pregnancy is especially good and cathartic for the phase of life I'm in now.

A wonderful voice was lost when she passed.
