I Am Going Braless!

I Am Going Braless!

I am absolutely tired of being confined by my bra. Undergarments are great, they support, look sexy, hold you in, but most of the time I just hate them. I feel like I only wear a bra because other people are uncomfortable with the fact that I have nipples. OH NO!!! I hang out with more men than women, and they are often not wearing a shirt. Guess what guys, you have nipples too and I can see them!

Nipples are universal yet only women's are sexualized. It does not seem fair that women’s nipples are looked at differently than men’s. Although women’s nipples have a purpose if a women has a baby, but what about the rest of the time, or what about the women that never have a baby? There are so many double standards in this world and I feel like to confront them you are labeled as a feminist. Well guess what?! I am not a feminist. I do not consider myself a feminist, I do not always agree with the fight that feminist are fighting, but this does not mean I do not see the double standards. A woman named Caresse Crosby invented the bra, according to Google. I wonder if she would be amazed by all the different bras and styles of bras that are out today. Aside from a sports bra, I don’t think bras are comfortable. I even search and buy bras without underwire because after you’ve had two or three bras stab you out of nowhere that shit needs to go!

So I am going to try this for a while. I am not small breasted either, I am coming in at a DD. It might get interesting some days. I used to live in a place with stairs and I had to hold my breasts when coming down the stairs as to not hit myself in the face. So I am wondering how it is going to play out. I am wondering if I will be treated differently, and if people will stare at my chest more. Like I have said in an earlier article, I do not wear low cut clothing; I am covered up all the time. I also normally wear a tank top underneath my shirts which should make my nipples more discrete. I am so excited. I want to let the ta-tas out! I want to feel free. Most of all I am excited not to have red marks on my body at the end of the day from a bra! There are meme’s all over the internet about what a woman does when she gets home: takes off her bra. That moment is liberating. I think I will feel more liberated all day if I never even put a bra on! So here goes nothing, I am going to let the girls out.

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
