I am not a sexist, but I don’t think men would find this post of any interest to them!!! I am now going into Advanced PD. I find all the jobs i want to do I can’t as my hands and fingers don’t work anymore. I drop drinking glasses, Can-not thread or hold a needell, ect in fact cannot even tie laces/ribbon into bows. The biggest thing though is my bras I pull them tight but when I try to hook each side together, my fingers just let go. So its gets to the 10th attempt and I give up, I call for my husband /carer. Next sent for front fastning bars, just the same, Then I watched the Lioness win the Euro game, one of the ladies took her top off and revealed her sports bra,So i brought some to try ??? BINGO these bras are too good to be true, Now don’t it wrong if I was a young girl with boob’s that needed showing off no way would i have brought these bras but seeing as i am a mature lady and feel like the madona with the fallen boobies, then the boob covers get a thumbs up.
Hello mary1947
Never thought to say, I’ve been using sport bras for years and don’t wear anything else. Just kicking myself for not mentioning it before. Glad you did.

OH!!! Tot you are awful but I like You!!!
Thank you for your honesty and humour. These kinds of practical challenges are so real for many people and sharing your workaround could really help others. It’s often small things like a change of clothing that bring back some ease and independence. And you told it beautifully.
i agree absolutely. I just cannot put any bra on anymore. My fingers go claw like - so i tried front loaders, but they are no better. Zips no longer work for me. Hooks and eyes are Imposible. i had not thought of sports bras- I will get one now! The only thing that has worked so far is o . have a bra with extenders. Once these enlarging strips are fixed on i never undo the bra at all. I can pull it right down and step out of it ,-or wriggle one arm out and get it off over my head. I can step into it and pull it up no problem, - and sometimes i ask my husband to check if I am twisted at the back-bu hi seyes sight is so bd he cannot tell. As for the fallen boobies … i only bother with a bra at all nowadays if I know i am going to go out and meet people.
Hi Teapotspout I am glad that some lady has the same problem as myself if it’s any help i brought my bras from a site thatv starts with A and had 3pairs for £24 00 and they are excellant quality.
Hi Mary1947,
Thank goodness it’s not only me who wears sport bras. I think they should be renamed “ comfort bras” or “ the only bra women need.”
I’ve been wearing them for a few years now and love them.

Hi Jackie Hope fully from our post’s all of our ladies will take our advice, Thanks for your reply. The only other thing I would like to add if I was Age 20/30 I would only wear the kind of bras when taking part in a sport but Jackie you have hit the nail on the head just by saying they are comfort bras,
Like most men I have never understood bras so I cannot help you. Sorry.
As a boy I struggled to figure out how a Litesome cricket support was worn, all those confusing straps !!!
What an innocent fellow I was and still am.
Best of luck.
