It makes me laugh. Hard.
I just got around to listening to Friday’s installment about a woman’s teenage bra mishap.
Having been a teen-age girl, I’m no stranger to the unexpected bra mishap. Strapless bras have slipped off in the middle of dance floors, they’ve come unhooked at inopportune times, and made unannounced showings.
But nothing I ever experienced comes close to the horror that Betty Jenkins (now 94) suffered on in an unpressurized airplane cabin over South America while wearing one of the first inflatable cup bras.
You don’t need Krulwich to figure out why this is a bad combination that resulted in a blow out.
I feel a little guilty laughing, but not too much, because all girls have at some point suffered through underwear-related humiliation. More than that, I’m laughing out of relief that it wasn’t me.
