For most women, it's unthinkable to go without their support, and not having that support can lead to some awkward, embarrassing and sometimes sexy situations. And men - we like that. So, what are your favourite situations, real or imagined, in which a woman has to go braless? Here are some of mine.
1) Lost luggage. The nightmare scenario for a holiday-goer, the luggage - and all the clothing inside - go missing, either misplaced by the buttery fingers of the airline, or left behind on a road trip. Add to the embarrassment by being unable to buy a bra, and it's eye candy for the locals!
2) Changing room mixup. Changing rooms can be chaotic when crowded -- after a sports match, or during a performance. It's not inconceivable that someone grabs the wrong thing and runs off, leaving someone in the middle of getting changed, and without their bra.
3) Forgetting. Probably the least plausible, but it must happen on the very odd occasion. If not getting up in the morning in a hurry, then forgetting to bring one for getting changed, such as swapping from a smelly sports bra after a gym session and realising that she hasn't brought a bra to change into. This kind of happened to a friend who worked out of town and only returned once a week. She forgot to bring her bras, and was lucky that she was wearing her work bra during the trip.
4) Late night outing. It's way past bedtime and she's sleeping comfortably, but has to get up to do something and she's too tired and lazy to get properly dressed.
5) The wind took it. One of the popular trends is for travelers to go to remote places, take off their bras and flash the open wilderness. A slip of the hand, an opportune breeze, and those bras could go fluttering away into the valley below.
