Science just proved bras aren't necessary.

Let's be honest ladies, the first thing we do when we get home is take off that damn bra. The one that has been digging into you, straps falling and constricting your boobs so you'll look "presentable." Now if you are one of the lucky ones who have found a bra that you literally can't feel, GO BUY THEM ALL, because it's like finding the fountain of youth. When we were younger we thought that wearing a bra was so cool and adult, but just like we found out about driving and shaving our legs, it's not worth it. Why should we wear bras? Is there some law that says you must wear a bra at all times in public, because please take my non-bra wearing, Walmart shopping, class attending ass to jail if there is. I don't like blaming society for our mistakes, but I'm blaming society for the reason women wear bras. I know that back when bras were invented it was probably because women wanted their breasts to be out of the way during work, but then somehow it turned it to bra wearing 24/7. I go to class, grocery shopping, every day when I get home, during chapter, and sometimes at work I go bra-less. I've never felt more free when bra-less.

Sure you can think I'm just trying to tell the world that bras are stupid, but let's throw some science in there. A French scientist conducted a fifteen year study with 330 women to prove that bras make your boobs saggy. Yes, the scientist is a man and has probably never worn a bra before (lucky), but he found evidence that bras aren't necessary. His study does state that younger women should stop wearing bras because his research found no change in women 35 and older. So let your boobs explore the gravitational pull and you can have a 7-mm nipple difference than those who wear a bra. I remember my mom saying that I should sleep in my bra to prevent my boobs from reaching my knees, luckily I didn't need science to realize that it's more comfortable to sleep bra-less.

I honestly tried googling why you should wear a bra and all I found before I gave up were articles about women written by women on how they went bra-less, and the above article. There's probably plenty of good reasons like not having them smack in your face during a workout, and etc.

I understand if you have big boobs, small boobs, medium boobs, or boobs and wanting to wear a bra go for it, but if you want to #freetheboobies you shouldn't feel self conscious about it. Just do it, you can gradually work from Walmart in a big t-shirt to at the office in a blouse. There's nothing better than being able to walk around in a hoodie bra-less, or even around your house in a just a bra and shorts. Do you, boo and don't worry about people staring at your beautiful self. National No Bra Day is October 13 and I'll be celebrating along with these ladies.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…

Great Value Colleges

If you go to or went to Kent State, then more than likely you have done or will do some of these things.

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.

The winters at Kent are brutal, and while the heated sidewalks and some great snow boots are always a help, there’s no chance you won’t bust it on the ice at least once in your four plus years at school.
