;D ;D Hope this will give you a chuckle, have a good day!! What Religion is Your Bra? A man walked into the ladies department of a Macy's and shyly walked up to the woman behind the counter and said, 'I'd like to buy a bra for my wife.' 'What type of bra?' asked the clerk. 'Type?' inquires the man, 'There's more than one type?' 'Look around,' said the saleslady, as she showed a sea of bras in every shape, size, color and material imaginable. 'Actually, even with all of this variety, there are really only four types of bras to choose.' Relieved, the man asked about the types. The saleslady replied: 'There are the Catholic, the Salvation Army, the Presbyterian, and the Baptist types. Which one would you prefer?' Now totally befuddled, the man asked about the differences between them. The Saleslady responded, 'It is all really quite simple... ' The Catholic type supports the masses. The Salvation Army type lifts the fallen, The Presbyterian type keeps them staunch and upright, and The Baptist makes mountains out of mole hills. Have you ever wondered why A,B, C, D, DD, E, F, G, and H are the letters used to define bra sizes? If you have wondered why, but couldn't figure out what the letters stood for, it is about time you became informed! (A} Almost Boobs... {B} Barely there. {C} Can't Complain! {D} Dang! {DD} Double dang! {E} Enormous! {F} Fake. {G} Get a Reduction. {H} Help me, I've fallen and I can't get up ! Send this to all that will appreciate it! They forgot the German bra Holtzemfromfloppen

Haa J.J. that was precious.....
I was to stair at it for some what, then it caught!!!
For the ladies of my land, It is {büstenhalter} a given-never is, never ever make jest of this item...some seem to forget they are supposed to be ladies, but then, some fellows forget to be gentlemen.
For the fellows {unterkleidung} as an undergarment to hide the chest hairs and the lower part to hold up the things. Well, I am attempting to be nice.

Charles, I agree jest is never appropriate in this discussion. However, you did not state that the Germans always (is it true in your experience as well?) say B.H. and not Bustenhalter. It is like Horsepower, Pferdstarke. The word is never used, and if used, it is not recognized. One must say P.S. (PayEss) for German people to understand HorsePower (as HP would not be recognized in the USA).
J.J., you are risking my life. I am sending that around the world to lady friends from sub-A to DD. My life is in your hands...

My life is in your hands... Kai the Foolish ============================================================================================ Kai, yes you are correct, we do say B.H. as with much many other. It is so tiresome to roll out such long words with the letters to describe in simple. Or to use a short term of the word Abk for {Abkürzung}. I was caught very undecided as to use the letter in-replacement of the long term, so instead, conducted the chicken route and played safe with the long term, just wished not to be a bore to our Polish friends. Some things {as of many} are still a mystery to me of the USA. For why do they cling to the English system of measurement, as metric is so more precise as used in Canada and the remainder of the known world {Europe}? I have observed though, American drivers are very good for the most part, and polite {in the Pacific North West Coast}. They speed as we do, but what they do we absolutely do not do, is for the operator with freedom to hold an object in their hands whilst on the road {handies/coffee/eating/ and what ever} and the motorway police are just as tricky with their radar. They ask for the operators license, insurance papers, but not a vehicle inspection sticker. Charles

My life is in your hands... Kai the Foolish Kai, I'll become completely reckless here. Talk about taking your life in your hands. When we were younger, long before we were introduced to the power of saintly women, we had certain adjectives that we used to describe our girls apparel. One that I remember is 'Over the shoulder boulder holder'. Now that I have painted a big red target on me, go ahead and throw (whatever you want) it at me.!!!!\ Kai, - - - Save meeeeee!!!!!!

JJ, I will come to your rescue on this one. Obviously you have never held a government contract where you had to go through anti-sexual harassment training. These are for the hands-on session. Do you note that this topic is primarily a man's topic? If I remember rightly, a silent woman / women means we are getting deeper and deeper into trouble the more we talk. Kai

JJ, Kai,
The most important thing from the harassment training is that "It is in the eye of the beholder"
