It is still a bra!

Tank top OK

Sports Bra not OK

Not sure I see the difference

That's not a car Snufferdoodle , that is a car thong!

Yes, since this is really a thread about the right word for garments, that is a car thong.

I hate when cars show their whale tails.

I'd avoid 5k's in the summer OP, you will see a lot of women wearing just a running bra.

That would be mild compared to the Bay to Breakers.

 

[Imzadi]

Oh puhlease??? Read the OP's words. She was clearly talking about seeing the girl's cross country team practicing!

So she mentioned WHO she saw the sports bras on, and suddenly it has to be jealousy?

If I saw a wrinkly pruned, 90 year old granny, I wonder about the appropriateness of wearing a sports bra. Yeah, I must be jealous. Not!

I will be referring to all my sports bras as snufferdoodles from this point forward.

I will now call my bras snufferdoodles.

I want a push-up snufferdoodle.

My bras will all be called snufferdoodles too.

My DDs will be extremely confused the first time I tell them to put all of their snufferdoodles into the laundry.

I'm jealous. I fondly remember the days when I could wear only a sports snufferdoodle to run. But now, for the sake of my neighbors and my knees, a t-shirt goes over the snufferdoodle and the speed at best could be described as a brisk walk.

Honestly if I saw a wrinkled pruned 90 year old granny wearing those and running I WOULD be jealous. Go, Granny!!

That is what I was asking.

But, that particular sports bra looks like a mini tank.

I've seen some sports bras in which all the "support" part of the "bra" is showing. So it definitely looks like a "bra."

I'd be jealous of a 90 year old wrinkly granny wearing a sports bra in public. I wish I had that level of self confidence and "I do not care what you think" attitude.

I know you're making a different point here, and I'm not trying to argue against it, just saying. I'd totally be jealous of that lady. I want to BE that lady when I grow up.

I concede to that one!

Way to many rules to follow.

So if you have small girls, a sports bra is ok but if you have big girls it's not ok?

What do you swim in?

A "tankini" top with wide straps, covers my midriff, and a swim skirt.

I don't think its a secret about what's underneath here, shirt or not. Some ladies need a bit more support. Some swimsuits do that too. Still covers a bunch more. I can assure you, underwire is much preferred over ta tas bouncing everywhere. I see underwire very infrequently though.

Fair enough. So it's just the belly part that bothers you?
