Believe
it or not belonging is a basic need of all humans. In fact, churches, schools, etc. all provide humans with
this cover of togetherness. No one wants to be the first to step out of a group
and propose an alternate view. This need for belonging also feeds many lifestyle
entities especially the fashion industry.
Now can
you imagine the horror if one of the most widely guarded secret that women
actually have boobs, wear bras, and that sometimes their bra straps are visible or can break were actually revealed! What group would they be in: bra strap breakers?

What Does Your Bra Strap Say About You?
Bra straps still evoke many different
ambivalent feelings among women. It
would seem as if older women are adamant that bra straps are a necessary part
of a woman’s wardrobe that should remain a secret. The need to hide the bra
strap has created so many different accessories all aimed at keeping this great
secret, hiding in plain sight.

On
the other side of the conversation however, young people are demanding that
they be given freedom of expression through their fashion choices. Is it not obvious
that if I have boobs I will wear a bra? If I am wearing a bra chances are it
has a strap. If I choose to show my strap does this mean I am cheap, tacky,
tasteless or even worse names? These are questions that can only be answered on
an individual level.

What Will You Do With Your Donkey?
This
whole debacle of bra straps reminds me of one of Aesop’s Fables, ‘The Man and His Donkey.’ Everyone who came along had a different idea about whether he
should ride the donkey, or not. It escalated to the point where the man finally
chose to carry his donkey. Can you imagine a man carrying a donkey? Finally the
donkey got away from them and ran away. So the man lost his donkey all because
of trying to please everybody. I am sure after re-reading that story you remember the moral: Please all and you will please none. Remember, the first sense of belonging that one should feel is to oneself
.

So
when all is said and done I hope none of us plans to lose our donkey. I am
riding mine all the way…. What will you do with yours?
