Underwear under there?

Why the hell would anyone charge 90 dollars for a /bra/? How much fabric and thread is involved here? Women's clothes as a whole are overpriced, but underwear is really ridiculous. I mean, we're not even talking silk and handmade lace, here. Even if we were, I can get a shirt of the same material for probably ten dollars less!

What is /up/ with this?

True. XD Like I said, men wear them for times they're expecting extreme stresses, whereas women need them for normal, everyday stresses.

Also, they don't have to make do with ones that don't actually fit because they don't have the money to go to a specialty shop and buy the right size since the size they need doesn't actually come in the off-the-rack versions that can be afforded. x__x WHYY. C'mon, there's got to be enough DDDs out there to justify making them in offtherack WHY is the largest I can find a D?

Gah. Yeah, brafitting is /really/ annoying, especially if you have a non-standard size. And a lot of American women do have non-standard sizes, for various reasons.

Also, finding a large-cup bra with comfortable straps that /don't/ do the grandmother thing? Very annoying!
