Just when guys were starting to figure out the field of women’s lingerie, the environmental movement has to go and come up with new mind altering ways of using women’s lingerie in particular their bras.
So where does the title come in and why the Are You Thinking category?
Let us review the products promoted in this piece and ponder the ramifications of if they went into production or encouraged similar development in other undergarments.
“Solar Power Bra”
Description: “It features a solar panel worn around the stomach” and “The bra is also equipped with pads designed to hold water, resembling mini drink pouches, in order to reduce the usage of cans and plastic bottles. It doesn't hurt that the pouches also help fill out certain chest areas.” There is this minor detail that it can’t be washed or allowed to be rained on.
Comment: Even as a demonstration of new ideas and not designed for being on the market, what is the point? An undergarment that cannot be exposed to water (electrocution potential?) which does not get exposure to the sun is quite a pointless creation. So let us add to an electrical generating bra some pouches of water which you have to hope will not break because it will ruin the bra or cause electrical shocks. How in any way is this idea good? So is the purpose of the bra to reduce the carbon emissions of a person by electrocution when their water breaks?
The Braticon
Description: “A bra that turns into a reusable shopping bag”
Comment: Now if you can automate the transformation of this bra, you will have a brand new cast member to the Transformers 2 movie coming up. Toss in a touch of the All Spark and you are good. Or was it inspired by the new look Bumblebee has? Seriously though, how are you supposed to get this into a shopping store, hold much of anything without getting an indecent exposure charge to take it off and use it? It truly would be one item that is “more than meets the eye.” So much for that “No bags in the fitting rooms” sign. If it supports shoplifting, then it must be a Decepticon.
Chop Chop
Description: “one (bra) that featured metal chopsticks to promote the use of reusable chopsticks”
Comment: Now that would be attractive on a date in a restaurant. ‘Please wait while I pull my chopsticks out of my bra.” So when you are done eating, do you need to take the chopsticks in back so they can be cleaned and sanitized before reinserting them into your bra? Otherwise, that bacteria and food particle build-up may make for some nasty smells from the bra. This would be a hand wash only too as having metallic chopsticks flying around in a washing machine or dryer may not be that kind to the machines.
I can only wonder what the new uses for panties, negligees and panty hose will be. There are limitations to the practical usage of items. So from the sheer basic standard of practicality, those who make transforming multi-purpose unusable undergarments get the award for Are You Thinking?
