    So lads, I need mostly your opinions, in the whole "etiquette of relationships" thingy. Heres the story so far,
    My other half takes exception to me walking outside bra-less, and I think hes being ridiculous. Now Im not talking going for a jog in a tight top with boobs-a-bouncin'', I mean walkin out in the pjs to water the flowers in my garden.
    So, is he bein ridiculous, or am I bein naive

    Lads, take the floor

    Yes my OH also likes me to wear a bra outside. I think SHES just been silly


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,230 ✭✭✭✭ejmaztec


    Perhaps he doesn't want you using his wheelbarrow, and would prefer you using a bra.

    Yep, agreed. He's being ridiculous.

    Its another thing if you were wandering about the main streets in your pj's but just outside your own door! Way over-reaction.
    If he's like that now, just start to imagine what he'd be like if ye were married!

    Time make some hard decisions before ya get in deeper!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,159 ✭✭✭✭phasers


    Speaking as a woman: Put on a bra.

    Not as a style thing, it's just that from personal experience men notice/ it's uncomfortable.


    Also you'll be all saggy in a few years :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,070 ✭✭✭✭My name is URL


    He's afraid you'll catch a bewb cold.

    Nobody likes a blue nipple


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,814 ✭✭✭TPD


    I dont think enough women walk around without bras.

    <.<
    >.>


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,473 ✭✭✭✭Super-Rush


    As long as you're not going to Tesco in your pj's then he is over reacting. Bra's get in the way imo.

    Go out and water the flowers again, only this time do it topless. Nothing like exaggerating a point to make a guy see sense.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,547 ✭✭✭✭Poor Uncle Tom


    That's the start of it, You'll be doing commando cartwheels to go to the shops next.

    Stamp it out now, chastity belt, bra and shades are mandatory for watering the flowers you know.

    Didn't you ever see day of the triffids?

    You're using a watering can....right?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 99 ✭✭ahara


    You should wear a burkha and chastity belt as well when engaged in such unseemly activity as the watering of flowers (after all they are nature's harlots).

    You haven't mentioned it but I'm presuming you have a suitable chaperone when venturing outdoors.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,654 ✭✭✭cruiser178


    Ladys of ireland,BURN YOUR BRAS.....not the mingers of course


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,816 ✭✭✭Calibos


    As a man, I think there is absolutely nothing wrong in walking past some lady watering the flowers braless in her Pj's in her garden on my way to work. I'll even say "hello, lovely morning isn't it".........

    .........as I gaze at the glistening beads of sweat from her exhertions slowly run down in rivuletes between her breasts visible from the top of her PJ's as she bends over to water the Hydrangia....as her breasts hang there defying gravity, I long to reach in and cup her fleshy orbs of womanhood while caressing her pert nipples erected by the chill morning air between my thumb and forefinger...........

    Cough.......

    Yeah, I don't see anything wrong with it love.

    :D

    *lol*

    If nobody else can see the twins, then I really don't see the problem.

    But make a habit of it and the twins will suffer later. And I'd say the lads here wouldn't like that. Maybe he's thinking long-term here :-)

    OP - do as he asks, but in the interests of equality, he must wear one too?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,376 ✭✭✭gaeilgegrinds


    Jeez ye have me thinking now, mine are really pert so they don't go all floppy without one so I'd often leave out the bins without one. My better half rather dislikes bras!

    It depends on your age and bra size. Not that I am asking for details(!), but if yours are say, over a B cup, then you can't afford to skip wearing one unfortunately.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,376 ✭✭✭gaeilgegrinds


    I don't hugely agree, it depends on how toned they are too. I've a nice set but they're not all floppy as I said. I can just about get away with it. I like wearing bras but refuse to in bed, hate that!

    :-) I find it more uncomfortable not to wear a bra; damn bosoms! ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,953 ✭✭✭Vinta81


    Depends what kind of pjs. It's obviously skimpy enough if he's kicking up a fuss.

    Then again, I wouldn't open my door in pjs let alone walk out into the front garden in them lol! My parents wouldn't be too thrilled!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,220 ✭✭✭✭Loopy


    He's being a tit.
    Wear what you bloody well want too..

    I swear, if Id known this thread was gonna be so funny Id have posted ages ago :D:D:D RLOL RLOL. Ive been in fits.....


    Anywho, not to blow ones own trumpet, (manner of speakin) my rack is not "swingin-a'tween-the-knees". And I only remove the bra at night, cant sleep in the god-damn things. Its part of my relaxy routine.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 195 ✭✭Astrogeek


    You water the garden? In Ireland?

    But as a woman, I say either ignore him or do it topless to piss him off and if this really pisses him off you really want to be in a relationship with this guy?
    He isn't gay by any chance?

    Well, a girlfriend being topless while watering the flowers would piss me off a little. :D

    it depends OP, how big are they?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,376 ✭✭✭gaeilgegrinds


    Hmm...reverse psychology. Maybe he's just more conservative than you? I'm just thinking of my last boyfriend and how he nearly died when it finally dawned on him on holidays why I don't have tan lines. He was not a happy camper. Some men do not like that kinda thing.
