National Cleavage Day What??

Oh.
I am so disappointed.
Wonderbra is the epitome of the bra manufacturer that does not, would not ever, make anything to fit me or anyone remotely shaped like me. They're part of the Victoria's Secret phenomenon, the whole cadre of manufacturers of lingerie who only make sizes 34-36-38 A-B-C-(D). Now, that's their prerogative, sure, but the problem is that when companies like this become industry leaders, they inspire loads of knockoffs... and nobody makes anything but those sizes.
It is a very, very short logical leap from thence to the "indisputible fact" that all women are these sizes and these sizes only, and if you can't make those sizes work for you, you are some sort of freak of nature. Because if there was a market for those sizes someone would surely make them.
Right?
Anyway only fat chicks have fat tits and we are SO ASHAMED OF FAT and would not want fatties in our store!!! If we made FAT bras then we would no longer be a glamorous brand and skinny hot chicks would not shop here anymore and that would be AWFUL.
BE ASHAMED OF YOUR SHAMEFUL FAT BOOBS YOU SHAMEFUL FATTY. SHAME.
So since those sizes aren't made by mainstream manufacturers, nobody knows they exist, so nobody shops for them, so nobody makes them...
To my knowledge no one has ever actually scientifically attempted to survey the actual bust size of a broad sample of American women.
Obviously, I'm digressing. Those are two totally separate arguments going on right there, but each of them, separately and intertwined, have given me horrible issues for years, so...
But anyway. Here, for the record, is my that-size-doesn't-exist freak-of-nature cleavage, in one of my Pennsic cholis. Nuts to you, Wonderbra.
