For years now - since about the age of 13 or so, in fact - I've been amazed at the level of ignorance and cluelessness some female-bodied people in our society express when it comes to said female bodies. Really amazed. Because most of this ignorance is sexual, and therefore directly related to the sex of their bodies:
How do you masturbate? What's a clitoris? Do I have one? Where is it? What's an orgasm?
Etc.
I have asked myself and others where this level of HUHWHAT? comes from. Don't these people read books? Magazines? Do they read at ALL? Do they have any curiosity? How is it possible to even reach the age of 15 and not know these things...let alone 17, 18, 19, 24....?
At this moment, however, many of these people are probably one-up on me.
There is a good chance, you see, that most of them actually know their correct BRA SIZE. Or are closer to knowing said bra size than I am.
It's a bit difficult to pretend superiority when you've just discovered that for a few years now at least, you've been underestimating your bra measurements by AT LEAST two cup sizes. That for years now you've somehow convinced yourself that your 30C bra was pulling apart at the seams despite the most minimal usage because it is TOO BIG, and not because it is TOO SMALL.
And that right there folks, IS NOT MADE OF WIN AND RAINBOWS.
At least now I know why it's been hurting so much more to bind in recent years. And why my binders fall apart much faster.
OMG I HAVE TEH DUM.
GAH.
