A Basic Guide to Bras for Men

were do we go to get the right size for men

T shirt bras are a nice bra for men that feel the need to wear a bra. Most men will enjoy wearing a t-shirt bra. I'm a 40B and feel comfortable wearing a t-shirt bra. They are available in a variety of colors.

i find that if i wear a bra under a tite sweater the men cant keep there eyes away from my chest. Love it makes me feel so feminine.

my favorite is the padded front close push up bra it really make my breast look larger and perky I wear this type of bra every where I go also like to wear matching silky panties and black nylon are a must

My favorite is Calvin Klein modern bralette. Pullover racer back style.....no need to fill out cups and I think they look hot

I enjoy wearing a bra I wear one to work and I enjoy shopping for them I feel very sexy and enjoy the fabric on me if you enjoy panties and pantyhoses then try a bra also try leggings with a no panty line panty it is amazing I wear them in public and it is not a problem with a long shirt

Have just read the comments by Oracle.I wonder why he was reading about men wearing bras if he disappoves.For us crossdressers the bra is an essential garment.Without them, our dresses or blouses wouldn’t have the shape that creates the feminity and I know I can’t wait to put one on whenever I’m dressing. Obviously all the other items we use such as knickers,slips,nighties,earrings and lipstick help to give us that lovely feeling that we enjoy.Cross dressing gives us a lot of satisfaction and harms no one if one is discreet.I attended a couple of group meetings some years ago,and it was good to sit and have a drink with us all crossdresed and discussed our ways of achieving our feminine side.I was surprised at the variety of age and appearance.Unfortunately that outlet is no longer available.Wihile sitting wring this I’m wearing a nice lacy white bra under my dress and without it I wouldn’t feel right

size girdle should I wear if I have a 32" waiste

Yes I wear lingerie. I’m 66 years old and know this nice lady that owns a lingerie boutique that caters to women and men. She knows what I like to wear and helped me look my best in women’s undies. My favorite brands are Olga; Elomi and Fantasie. Chrissy has her store in Rohnert Park; Ca. Been in business for years. She says she wants to make me over one day so I can enjoy the full experience.

I am a straight man, but I love to wear my tiny skirt and sexy see through panties and sexy stockings.

Just say "no" to "men's bras". Take a hard look at your value system, and join the mainstream - real men don't wear lingerie.

I wear a bra and knickers with a nightie in bed.It feels comfortable.I also wear a short dress with pantyhose when I'm home in the evenings.feels sexy and feminine with pearl necklace and earrings .Nothing wrong with that!My late wife encouraged me ,and helped with buying clothes for me,particularly from the op shops.

I’m 14 and I have previously wore bras and it feels good but I’m too scared to show and I hardly wear them now and I wish I could

My Sister-in-Law gave me my first Bra...She said that "you need to wear a Bra'. I now wear my Bras (and Panties) 24/7 365. I have natural 46B/C Breasts, so I need and want to wear my Bra !!! I also sleep in my Nightgown, wearing my Bra and Panties underneath !!!

I started wearing a bra recently, after a heart problem I was given a pace maker and put on medication, one of the side effects was slight breast growth and nipple soreness. The other issue is the pacemaker sits on my left breast and causes irritation. My wife suggested I try a sports crop top and that helped a lot. I tried compression tops but the were hot and quite uncomfortable and did not stop the irritation of my nipples. My wife got me a selection of sports bras and normal bras to try. I was somewhat embarrassed to wear a bra and my wife said it was a bit wierd adjusting her husband's bra straps, but after trying several styles and trying to find styles that could be worn without being seen I was prepared to give it a try. My breasts are not large and I am a 40 inch chest so an A to B cup is about right. After the initial embarrassment and discomfort, I must say the relief and support made it worthwhile. After a while I braved wearing it out of the house and now after 3 months rarely go braless even for sleeping. I have a couple of wide back from fastening sport bras that are really good. Strangely though some under wire T shirt bras work very well and are surprisingly comfortable. And much to my surprise some non under wire lace bras are extremely comfortable. I have come to terms with it now and my wife is happy that I have stopped complaining about. So guys with a little effort you can wear a bra undetected and enjoy a bit of comfort for your bombs.

Hello Hope,

I enjoyed your article very much.

Bras have been a very interesting part of my life since childhood. I have worn bras of all sorts and I have and still do enjoy them very much.

I love dressing up as a lady just about any time. My bra is usually the first thing that

I put on. Unfortunately not having breast, I must inprovise and that has to be just right.. Fully dressed, my bras is one of my main assets, besides my legs covered with my best pantyhose, and no panties normally.

I adore nice breast, just wish I had nice ones too to fill my bra with. I love the looks and the feel of lovely breast under my clothing, whether it a nice evening dress or a skirt and top for the day.

Thank you for you input in choose a good bra.

Rhonda

I've been wearing bras, panties and stocking for years. My wife knows and we wear matching lingerie to bed. The best bras are always the ones that my darling wife buys for ne.

I wear PLAYTEX BRAS and panties 24/7 356. I also wear tights, pantyhose and stockings. My toes are always painted (different color by the season). I love to wear clip-on earrings.

I love to wear bras I have small man breasts and a 36b bra fits me perfect

I am so glad there are others like me especially the feeling of a change of personality which are such a luxury. I have loved wearing bra's since I was 10 year old. My mother had a wonderful figure and was also tall. Seeing her run from the bathroom to her bedroom soon convinced that I was a boob man and after that things went from bad to worse. Trying on her bra's then knickers moving on to stretchy tops and then skirts I was hooked. I now wear a bra and panties all the times I can, I do love large breasts and enjoy filling my bra's with the breast forms. I have now found a very comfortable bra and enjoy the shaping this gives my 44" DD being easy to wear for long periods as well as sleeping in. I am concerned with this obsession with bra's and wearing them as I enjoy it to much but equally I love to see a women with nice breasts.

Only the other day in a café the waitress was very sweet and petit as I struggles to maintain my attention with my friends. She knew she had my attention and always walking around the table to show her DDs. I wondered what she would have thought that I could match her at home

Is it ok for a man to wear a bra and under pants under my pants outsid

I am wearing a D cup bra 24/7 for the last 3 years and panties sometimes I love the feel of them with just my regular work clothes nobody ever said a thing about it

I love the feeling bras and panties give me when I wear them all day long. I have been wearing them for years and I am a 38B and a size 9 panty. I prefer panties with a full back and lightly padded underwire and push-ups. I find everything I need at Walmart. I keep my secret hidden but it makes me fill exhilerated!

I personally have five bras and about 25 pairs of panties I don't have many men underwear left as I'm trying to get rid of them. I like wearing pantyhose and dresses I have 6 nice dresses mostly in pink. I have a garter belt with some nice thigh highs which I really like I try to wear them as much as possible throughout the day underneath my clothes. At night I mainly sleep in panties and a bra they feel so comfortable. I also like wearing makeup especially lip stick and eyeliner I'm getting pretty good about applying it. A lot of times at like 1 o'clock in the morning I'll go outside fully dressed with a bra panties and a full dress with makeup on I love it. Some nights I don't even care if I get caught by somebody I actually hope I do sometimes.

I do not like to wear a bra so much but I have to do it every day because of large breasts (40C). It helps, less chafing and it is a good daily support during work and gym. I don't care what people might think, it is my body and I have to take care of it.

I have been wearing panties, bras and nighties for years, I have a favourite lingerie store that I frequent to buy off the rack sets the girls are very helpful, when at home I am always wearing them plus my wife loves seeing me in sexy lingerie

Is it possible to get a bra in a "48aa" or "aaa" that looks great and feels great? I have seen very few and what I have seen look like I should be in "Bootcamp.

I love to wear bras. It makes me feel so sexy.

I've begun wearing breastforms and bras because they put me in touch with my softer, more female side. That was denied me growing up and it's hurt me. I haven't been in touch with my feelings and emotions very well and it's damaged me in my relationships. My wife supports me in this. I think she can see the difference it's made in our lives.

Is it a fetish, or an obsession? How would I know except I have a pretty good understanding of psychology. Yes, It's possible. All I know is that it's been good for me and for my marriage, so...who cares?

I have a man that likes to wear bras. But having a bit of trouble finding the right cup size. If he went with female measuring he'd be a H cup there is no way he is a H cup. If you can help please do

Thanks so much for you compassionate understanding, Hope! So well said,...so all my girdles, nylons, and delicate lovelies be not for naught, but walk in the sunlight. There is a God!

Hi all my name is erica and I have been wearing bras for many years now but I have a problem I can't afford any new bras so if any of you have some you don't want or wear anymore may I have them?

I also like to wear bra's.. I dress completely in fem most days and feel very comfortable...I have a few other cross dressing friends that I chat with and have been out for a few years....I shop in retail stores and on line but prefer in store shopping as I have found a few stores where the sales girls are very helpful and I am no longer embarrassed to tell the sales girl the items are for me.

I too like to wear both bras and stockings, I prefer a suspender belt or a girdle. I wear both at home but do visit dressing agencies where I can be made up and dressed in proper women's clothes, then I am comfortable and like to chat with other clients, I am not embarrassed and feel confident

love wearing bras and pantys,also all types on lingere am married recently,and im afraid of getting noticed by my wife,but i wont stop wearing,

I have been wearing bras and panties(and all sorts of other pretty feminine stuff) for 25yrs now. My wife knows and approves. I love to wear a bra under my shirt and go shopping. Also, I'll put on a pair of hi cut panties with a low cut pair of jeans so when I stoop down in a store they show. Very exciting!!! Nothing beats the feeling of wearing a bra and pretty panties!!!!

Susan.transgirl; Vincent; visitor209; and all...: Ah, lingerie on a budget is always a challenge. Right now Kohls has clearance items at greatly reduced prices. Last week panties were 3/9.99. This weekend they dropped them to 3/7.99. The selection of VF, Jockey, Bali, Olga, Warners, Maidenform is getting picked over but may still be worth your look. Name brand bras on clearance are 11.99. Not bad.

People noticing? Maybe some. But it will be a rare person who will say anything. Some may be in denial. That's their way of dealing with reality. Others may be kindly interested. I'm waiting for the supportive comment. I expect someone will.

If you're interested in pantliners JCPenney just got a shipment. at prices comparable and in some cases lower than their 2005 catalogue. Yes, they are catalogue order. The sizing shown in the website is accurate. I ordered one full length XL thinking I'd need the room. Too large. I ordered the Misses L next go around. They fit fine and feel great under jeans and as pajamas. I have picked up a very nice quality selection of pettipants (14, 20 and 24 inch lengths)in like-new condition at thrift stores. Sometimes their size and care tags have been cut off. I have a method to judge size by using my hand span and/or forearm length. Or you can compare with another item in the rack which has its tags.

It's a rewarding challenge. Good luck and God bless.

since this article is for men I would suggest first sizing yourself with a measuring tape no no not the hardwear store the one used by clothing makers called a cloth measuring tape. then go online and type your measurements into a free bra size caculator.(most bra size calculator pages/websites have instructions on proper bra measuring)

here is a good one I found http://www.85b.org/ they also have a size converter so you can get the right bra if your shopping out of the country.

then try these online stores (the only place I found my size) http://www.aalingerie.com/ and http://www.daintylady.co.uk/

they both carry my size witch is a 38 aa they also carry aaa

i love to wear bras and panties

I love to go shopping for a nice bra or pair of panties. I have started shopping a K-Mart or Wal-Mart for inexpensive bras. I am wearing a nice soft cup (38D) pink bra. I think it only cost six dollars. Unfortunately I have to by my favorite Vanity Fair panties at more expensive department stores. I wonder if anyone notices, when I wear just a tee shirt over my bra?

i have been wearing womens underwear of a kinds all my life i am 45 years old straight & single and very free spirited and open there is nothing wrong with wearing a bra or pantees or suspenders and stocking they feel great against your skin and the tightness against your thighs also front buttoned dresses are fantasic with the right underwear, underwired bra's are better as you can fill tem out with fillets and the stick on fillets are a lot better as they mover with you they stick on your chest and peel of with ease and will clip togeter to give you a bussom, there great,as one previous comment said women wear what they like is a woman wears a suit it classed as sexy and if you wear a dress your a perv, its time people opened there eyes were in the 21st century anyone should be able to wear what feels comfy, i have been arrested for wearing a bra in public under my clothes it was noticed and i was given a warning for lewd conduct, i was also warned whilst shopping and trying on a bra in contessa the police were called and i was humiliated in front of other shoppers also ridiculed and humiliated in a well known mature ladys clothes shop bon marche be careful guys not all women are comfotable with us guys wearing there clothes and underwear they can become vindictive and malisious towards any man that looks better in there underwear then they do,when in a private dressing room trying on a bra do it fast and quick as not all shoppers agree i have had good exp and very bad and most assistants are brillient but there are a few so be careful and hold your head up high and be proud of who you are never be ashamed or being a crossdresser or wearing a bra and if your wife has a problem with it just remind her that jeans and hair dryers were designed for men ?

I am a man that loves wearing womens bras and womens panties all the time. I also wear earrings in both ears and wear nail polish on my fingernails and toenails. I really enjoy doing all the womens/ girls stuff that I mentioned.

It's fun and exciting.

I just love wearing bras, knickers, slips nighties and dresses. Yum.

Hey just bought my first bra and panty set today... it is pink with lace and fits me perfectly. I have been secretly been wearing my mom's bra everyday. But for halloween, i decided to go as a complete girl and i had one of my friends go bra shopping with me. I love how they feel against me. I am 100% straight with a girlfriend of 1 year and she knows about my bra wearing and doesn't care. I hope to own my own wardrobe of women's clothes.

ttyl for now...

I am a 38AA and have several bras in different styles and colors. My favorite panties are Joe Boxer string bikinis.

I love wearing bras and panties, camis,v-neck shirts, and liw-rise jeans. I am 38AA and have a large collection in different styles and colors.

i like wearing sarees, most of the time i am in ladies dress, now i am not doing any job, my wife is working and i am doing household work, preparing morning break fast, lunch and dinner. and cleaning and all other house work.

I'm a straight guy who is overweight. So I can fill a C cup. I love that I can do that. But now that I'm in my 20s, I'm starting to think about my health and know that I need to lose weight. I'm going to hate loosing these boobs.

It's come to the point where I'm a regular shopper in Victoria Secrets, Fredricks of Hollywood, Charlotte Russe & Ann Taylor. My girlfriend loves that I have a vibrant feminine side. We like to have girls night out dates. Basically, we'll go out to dinner, see a chick-flick and go lingerie shopping. To top it off, I'm considered one of the girls when I go shopping with her girlfriends.

Hi Guys (and Girls)

I am new to this site and can't express fully my delight at finding that 100% straight guy like me is not alone in my desire to wear a Bra. I read the article and comments and used your info to buy my first (brand new and properly sized anyway) Bra and Panty set.

Thanks for the great suggestions.

I always wear panties as that is all my wife wants me to wear. I love wearing panties they feel so good no pinching the no ride panties are the best.

i just got my first bra it is pink and lacy

Hope I just wore a bra for the first time all day i barrowed it from my wife I honestly don't know why I waited so long to try it I love wearing a bra now maybe I will grow a pair to fill the cup. I plan on buying several so I can wear a bra daily. Thanks for the inspiration

I love dressing in womens underwear. Prancing around in lace and high heel boots is a great feeling.

I love to wear a bra and silky knickers. The girls in my local lingerie shop are really friendly and helpful and they know that I am shopping for myself and I am allowed to try any bra on in the shop prior to buying.

Wearing Bras is just fantastic, I have been wearing them for around 6 years now and its good to see im not the only one, I wear 36a most of the time and prefer Underwired Satin/Silk bras.

I love everything about them, the shape/colours etc and really enjoy going shoping for them (or buying online) Wearing them just makes me feel happy and good with myself, If you've ever been curious about wearing one then go ahead and give it a try

i love wearing a bra and panties it makes me feel like the woman i wished i was

There is nothing wrong with wareing bras and panties I have been wareing them for a very long time. In my case I do not have to answer to anybody. It is just one of my pleasures of life.

I am also considering implants (like Darrin). Nothing too dramatic, but enough to fill out an A-cup.

If you gotem wearem.

i have wear pantyand bar for50 years ihave34b breast my wife buy all lingerie the sheerpanty are the best ilike the unwirebarthey holdmy breast and show off my nipplei am luck . ihave big nipple i dress as a women very day

I have worn ladies panties before my teens, reason is they're more comfortable then mens underwear. I would like to find a 48AA or A bra to wear but I'm finding it almost impossible to find a store that sells this size.

My husband is a nurse who has very femmine looks and long hair with his ears pierced. He wears panties and bras everyday and no one blinks an eye because he looks so natural in them. They are noticible under his scrubs and his bra is very noticible every time he bends over which is alot in his daily activities. He wears nothing but victoria secrets bras and panties and I just love his of work outfits also, tight tops and jeans.

iwear a bra and panties everyday under my regular male clothes and have done so for years the wife knows and we often wear matching sets i also wouls like a long line bra but can not find one for a tall man or long torso --hope can you help us males find a good longline bra or one piece

I've worn lingerie on and off for many years. I've been recently measured for a bra and panties by a lady who runs her own lingerie business. She was very nice and was delighted to help fit me. I hope to buy some silicone breast forms from her soon.

I actually prefer ones with a underwire! I find them more comfartable and I am pretty flat chested. Also, when it does start to chafe it only reminds me that it's there. ;)

I love wearing bras ,panties ..skirts makes me feel very comfortable

Hello My man wife haha well she posted that we both love for him excuse me her to wear a bra.that's true.she also said I may tell a co-worker about it and that's why I am here. My friend is a great girl and is very open to a lot.but not sure how I may tell her about my bra and panty wearing man. I've hinted but got no reply as of yet about different things that relate.Things are going great for both of us and she lkes to wear dresses also which I think are very cute on her.Oh well hope to get things iron out with my girlfriend .

Yvettes Wife.

If you want the right size get measured I did at Debenhams. For a lot of men bra wearing is normal and necessary requirement to suppoort manboobs. I also only wear panties which are much more comfortable than pants and have just started using tights or knee-highs. They keep my legs warm and are beter for my feet. Again a lot men wear tights

i do belive for a man to wear a bra & panties. he has to be free in spirit. ive only been wearing bras & panties for about 6mo. and i only wished i had started years earlier. when i am wearing there is nothing else like the feeling that comes from a fine bra & well fitting panties

I wear a bra all the time most of my co workers know I don't have any problems.

What's wrong with a straight male wearing bras? Women have worn men's clothes forever it seems, so, why shouldn't men be aable to wear bras? I love a good molded cup bra, usually in private, a couple of times I have worn a bra under my regular clothes while going out for the day.

I love to shop for bras at WalMart and JCPennys, doesn't bother me. If a sales clerk asks me who it's for, I just say, for my girlfriend.

I love shopping in the linbgere section.

Feeling good in a bra and loving it.

It seems that a large number of males like wearing bras. I am a crossdresser so of course I love wearing a bra, as well as all other items of lingerie. I actually have about 25 bras. I prefer an underwire with silicone forms. I laso occasionally wear a bra and panties under my male clothes. I find it interesting that there are men who are straight but love wering bras. Since women may freely wear virtually any item of male clothing, perhaps this will become more acceptable. It certainly doesn't hurt anyone.

i also enjoy wearing feminine clothing especially lingerie.why should women have all the fun

hi girls i wear some type of bra and panties 24/7 sleep bras for bed and regular during the day.i feel undressed if not wearing these items.plus i wear stockings

just trying to make a comment.

I love to wear a nice bra.

that's about it

Getting an allinone that fits the male torso is not easy. If you don´t find one then maybe the combination of girdle and longlinebra might be your choice. Women and men have a different hip waist ratio so often a girdle and a longline fits much better with a man.

I love wearing bra and panty. My wife does not mind it . I also love wearing lipstick, earrings , high heels and other female dresses like skirts. I am 100% straight

As LatexLeah commnted several months ago, the "all in one" is left out. I have been wearing panties and bras and would like to get a "all in one" but don't know what size to get. I have tried some on but they never are long enough in the torso. Hope, do you or anyone have any suggestions? I just love the feel of satin against my body.

I wear Panties and bra under my male clothes whenever I get the chance. Love feeling pretty and sexy. My wife knows and does not care, but chooses not to se me in them.

I love wearing bras and do so almost every day. My wife found out about my little secrate but I have been working up to it buy wearing hers in front of her from time to time. I do wear one out and about sometimes but not as much in summer. The girls bras are the way to go to get one that fits as far as the cup goes but they are limited as far as adjustment sometimes. The hard part is to try on allot of sizes that"might not be your size" such as I find a D bra has the right size underwire for me but often the cup size is not right. No kidding you say but if you find one that is a stretchy one they do fit quite nice. The "A" cup bra is often the go to but the under wire is to small to fit from side to side so it floats on top and when you raise your arms it climbs up. So what I am getting to is go for a larger size but stretchy. Hope this helps

I have never been caught wearing a bra but I have seen another guy out there wearing one. FYI

I love wearing panties and am wanting to wear bras in public without being noticed. Any ideas.

i have large breast and was told by my doctor to get a good fitting bra and wear it for comfort and pain relief

I've been wearing bras and panties for a lot of years and was notice by a co-worker and later we started dating after I had a divorce a few years later.I am now her girlfiend and we live together.Oh yes still wear them at work and she likes the Idea of it.so far no one else know but that may change some day,she want's to tell her girlfiend at work but so far she has not but she has hinted about the subject to her.Well that's it for now.

i wear a bras when ever i get the chance it is my choice and one day i wish to have my own breast as well i am hoping that i can grow up to a size d cup and i feal like my self when i wear one and i am a strate male and men should be able to wear what ever they want

I buy my own. Be a man and buy yours too. Number one reason I ended up divorced: Wife couldn't handle the thought of me in women's underwear. Shattered her image of me. I dream of a day when men are as free as women to express themselves openly. Time to shatter the taboos... Join me by wearing your bra and panties to work tomorrow... C'mon, you know you want to.

Does anyone have a bra I can borrow. It's my first

Alas, the grand old "all in one" is left out, once again. They keep pantyhose up, breast forms in place and the look smooth. Maybe they're old fashioned in today's fast paced society but back in the good ol' days when men were men... wait, that doesn't work.

My husband wears a bra, at first I was troubled but now I'm fine with it. He wears a 36A underwire, lightly padded. I buy them for him in the girls department at Kmart or Walmart. He has a pastel blue, beige, black and white. I don't care to have him wear anthing pink or with lace. Most of the girls style bras have the adjusters on the front so they don't show as much.My sister always gives him a bra and pantie set for his birthday.

Don't knock it if you haven't tried on a bra that fits you well.

i have been wearing panties for a long time. my wife sometimes picks them out. most of the panties have lace on hem. they feel very good on my body. if women can wear boxers why should we looked like we are weird. if you have not tried wearing you are missing out on the feel of them
