Why Frankenbras are the fucking dumbest idea that I have ever heard

aA lot of women have asymmetry in their breasts. In fact, most women have some degree of asymmetry. A lot of it is not noticeable, some of it is noticeable but not a big deal, and sometimes breasts can naturally be two different cup sizes. Perfectly even breasts are usually the work of science, not nature. I have this problem myself and once Googled it as a teenager to learn more about it. There’s not much to learn other than the fact that this happens to a lot of women and it’s usually not an indication of poor health or potential problems.While I was Googling I came across a site that recommended that you deal with the problem by creating “Frankenbras”. Like Frankenstein’s monster, but for lingerie. The basic idea is that you buy two bras; one in one cup size and one in a different cup size, each one fitting one breast. Then you take them apart and re-sew them until you have created a bra that fits your breasts correctly.After I finished reading the idea I thought to myself that this is so insanely stupid I didn’t think that anyone would ever bother doing it. The more I thought about it, the less it made sense. So if anyone here is thinking about making a Frankenbra, here are a few things that you should think about.1. You have to buy double the bras – I’m not sure where you shop for bras, but bras can range from $10 to upwards of $70 EACH. Even if you buy bras on sale, that means that the bra you once bought for $10 is now $20. So you have to either buy fewer bras or spend more money.2. You have to sew – Plenty of women think nothing of whipping out their sewing machines and going to town on a new project. But I am a total beginner. I don’t know if I could take a bra apart correctly, let alone sew it back together. Even if you’re completely comfortable with that, it’s still going to be a lot of work.3. Your breasts will now LOOK uneven – When you buy bras to fit the larger breast, molded cups will give your smaller breast enough shape to make it look natural. As long as your larger breast isn’t spilling over the top, you’ll look pretty balanced, just by the cup. With two completely different cups, it will be more obvious that your breasts are different sizes and more difficult to hide.4. There’s no hassle in wearing bras that fit the larger cup size – As I wrote before, molded cups can help fill out shirts and make you look more natural. As long as the bra fits your larger breasts, there’s no discomfort or pain from wearing a bra that is too big in one cup. If a bra looks strange with part of the cup not filled out, just find one that looks okay.In conclusion, I’ve been wearing regular bras with asymmetrical breasts for… minus 12… I’m not 30 yet… 16 years (sorry, had to do some math) and never had a problem. Creating Frankenbras sounds like a lot more trouble than they’re worth. If the difference is small, then don’t even think about it. If the difference is a cup size, then buy bras carefully. If the difference is so severe that it’s effecting your balance, posture or health, then look into corrective surgery. But don’t waste your time ripping bras apart and sewing them back together.
