We’ve come a long way towards gender equality, especially within the last couple of years, but there is still much to be done.
Women in the workplace are still losing $513 billion in wages compared to their male peers as a result of the wage gap. Women are still expected to be financially independent and to have careers while juggling housekeeping, childrearing, and getting dinner on the table. They’re forced to juggle because choosing one over the other comes with its own set of issues. Women are still discounted at every turn when it comes to sexual assault or harassment.
The list goes on and on and on.
Ending with bras. BRAS. When will some genius woman scientist come up with a way to keep ta-tas perky forever so that bras become a thing of the past? I’m waiting.

Me: “Whose bra is that?”
Daughter: “Mine.”
Me: “Why is it on the kitchen windowsill?”
Daughter: “I took it off to eat.”— Andy Richter (@AndyRichter) December 30, 2018

Every woman who has ever taken off a sports bra is a professional escape artist.

I don't carry a wallet & I often put money inside my bra.
At night when I undress, I pretend my boobs are paying me a ransom to be set free.— Carbosly (@Carbosly) August 6, 2015

If the feeling you get when you take off your bra after wearing it for 24 hours could be bottled, it would be the most addictive drug ever.

Just slung my bra off & threw it to the other side of the couch where there are already 2 other bras. If my math is right, it's Wednesday.

Just told my sister not to die in my shower because the cops would show up and then I'd have to put a bra on.

Push me aside, but I will come back. Hide me, but I will always emerge.
I AM POWER.
I AM RESILIENCE.
