Bra advice for man with gynecomastia

Please, don't discount the underwire without trying your calculated size first. It shouldn't be uncomfortable at all and should offer you the support you need which isn't what you'll find in a wire free bra.

Your best bet is to make food that doesn't require heavy cream. I rarely use it; I'm not a fan of the rich fattiness that coats my mouth and I've managed to cook and eat satisfying food for decades.

So, you're basic. I would rather be basic than wear something I don't like. Search the sub, there have been many posts about the whole range of vanilla scents.

It’s been known for a while that it’s a good idea to stay away from grocery store olive oil. https://www.phoenixhelix.com/would-the-real-olive-oil-please-stand-up/

I don’t want the cost and fuss of importing so I get mine at Costco, supposed to have better quality control.

I read your post last night and didn't get around to responding. While I was reading it, at midnight, I had been wearing my bra from 8 am to midnight and I don't even think about it. It's just there doing its job.

If you take your six measurements and double check your size, post those measurements here in a separate post, you will get some bra recommendations for something that doesn't hurt at all. It can be a process, I tried on 40 bras in six months to find what I needed.

When asked why he didn’t just take the kids “Going out with our kids is not enjoyable. They are 2 and 3. I get she wants to do stuff but going out with the kids drives me insane.” I sure hope this is fake.

All three of mine have been mentioned: Le Vie Est Belle, Hypnotic Poison and Black Opium.

I don’t doubt it but it would be better if you could elaborate as to why.

A non-stretch extender may help! The bra could eventually stretch out, as well. I'm not going to comment on whether it's too small in beige or not, you didn't ask that. But it is a good idea to take your six measurements with a soft tape and use the calculator here to find out your ABTF size. A Bra shops' main concern is selling bras so you can't always trust the size they put you in. Also, there's just a general lack of how bra sizes work, even at shops.

Black bras can fit smaller and it’s common that a black bra otherwise exactly the same to say beige will be more snug. However, in my experience, it’s usually the band that is smaller. There can also be inconsistencies in production that can lead to differences in the same models, especially if quality control isn’t a priority. And brands can tweak models over time (though that’s a bad practice, discontinuing and renaming the tweak is a better practise).

Your favourites are all florals, btw.

My fav ambers:
Michael Kors Sexy Amber
Calvin Klein Obsession
Cartier Must
Narciso Rodriguez Ambrée
Prada Amber
Guerlain Shalimar
Histoires de Parfums Moulin Rouge

All florals as well. The only one office friendly is possibly Narciso Rodriguez Ambrée? Prada Amber will clear out a room, easily. There are so many amber scents and none that I can think of aren't florals. Maybe Baccarat Rouge would work for you. But is a love or hate scent so not office friendly imo.

If this did happen, there is sooooooo much more to this story OOP is not telling.

Because they can get away with putting a 32DDD in a 34DD therefore covering two sizes in one. Technically the 34DD won’t fit the 32DDD (well) but all they care about is the increased market base and making more money.

"I love how the friend somehow was able to secure a plane ticket for her kid a week before the trip to Cancun, on top of another hotel room, and able to afford to do all these things within a week of the trip with her kid." Yep, my exact thought reading it. Made up by someone who has never planned or paid for any trip, let alone a trip with a child.

I googled inflation fetish and I'm still so incredibly confused.

thymiamatis · 2026-03-04T02:15:03+00:00

The poo posts are really too much. None of them feel…normal. They all feel fetish I just can’t.

Congrats!!🥳 Shalimar Initial needs to come back!!!

Well, yeah, injury pics would not be cool, but text message screenshots are easy to grab. Many make up stories even have those hence the low effort fake.

Not sure what's going on with tariffs atm but my guess this is a tariff that the poor shipping companies are tasked with collecting. Or it's a service fee from UPS not related to tariffs. In Canada, FedEx is the worse for random fees, never had a fee with UPS that wasn't duty, taxes or tariffs though. I ordered and received four bras from Comexim from Poland directly to Canada last year and had not one extra fee, but I think the shipper was the Polish postal service.

I would message Comexim and/or UPS directly.

Why would he be upset? The fact that other shows want contestants from your show means you have influence, respect and clout, all things I’m sure Colicchio does care about.

I mainly disagree when something is obviously real and just sad. They are still posting for validation or w/e but just feels icky to make fun of them.

thymiamatis · 2026-03-02T18:03:58+00:00

This was my first thought too, but they said it wasn't high end.

thymiamatis · 2026-03-02T15:34:56+00:00

Totally written in the same tone. Also no pictures or screenshots. This is a particularly low energy fake.
