Bezi bra discs, anyone?

I have always had high-beams, and I hate it. All my bras are padded/contour, same with my bathing suit tops. I can't buy anything I can't wear a real bra with. I love the idea of these concealers on occasion so I could actually wear a little cami with a shelf bra and no real bra. I'm not that large so could get away with it in casual situations if I could lose the high beams (and mine care naught about the temperature out. 95 degrees? Check!)

Those of you without high-beams have NO idea!

I have always had this issue and didn't realize some people don't. Padded sports bras are a blessing for this reason alone, let alone making me look like I actually have a bust line.
But, if you have to wear this product with a bra, what good would they do me when I am wearing a sports top with a shelf bra? Something that sticks to my skin would work better. I have taken to wearing a strapless bra under my regular camis with shelf bras. I *do* wear my Terry Eurohalters quite frequently for running and yoga, as well as cycling and I try not to think about it... hoping the pattern on these tops obscures the headlights.

Headlights seem to matter to only some nations in this world and I'm happy I don't live in one of them....

Cheers to that. I wish I was in one of em!

Headlights are annoying when one is small-breasted.

Enough said. Nevertheless I try not to worry too much. For cycling it's just not worth it. You're breezing by!!

Haha! My ex used to say they were so pointy they could cut glass! I'm getting to a point where for the most part, I've stopped caring. I wear a bra. If they point, they point. I have boobs. Get over it.

I think it has nothing to do with self-confidence. This topic is just not present in some countries, you don't need "self-confidence" to ... have nipples (?) in those countries. I never even thought about this at all.

To be honest, I'm quite happy too that I don't have to worry about my nipples or the lines of my underwear showing through clothes. And I don't mean this in a "patronizing" way at all. It sounds really stressful to think about all those things!

I wonder if this is something "new" that came up in the last few years in your country? Or something you grew up with? (I hope it's not a "trend" that will affect me at some point. I wouldn't like to go through such hazzle.)

I deleted my previous post. I regret getting into this discussion; this is a private hang-up of mine and I should have left it as such.

[Crankin]

I understand that in other countries, this is seen as having a "hang up" about natural body parts.
I am not very modest, but I really don't want my nipples showing in any professional situation, just as I don't want my azz crack showing, or any cleavage. In my job, I have to be aware of what might be "triggering," but I would be like this in any work situation. And I don't want others to see my underwear, either.
This may be cultural, and that's OK. Jobob, you didn't need to delete your post; I think everyone understands that opinions on this issue differ in different places.

It's not earth-shattering news that there are cultural differences regarding this sort of thing. Learning about attitudes different from one's own is interesting to me.

I admit the term "headlights" makes my skin crawl a little, but that's just me. I hate "buns," too.

[emily_in_nc]

Yes, I realize high beams don't matter to some women. I applaud the self-confidence of such women.

However...I really don't want to see their high beams at work. I used to work with a gal who had large breasts and wore "soft cup" bras that did nothing to conceal them. It was very distracting...and I can only imagine what the men thought! She wasn't wearing anything "sexy", just normal tops, but it's hot here in the south, so we don't wear jackets to work. As such, I don't want to reveal all to my co-workers, and I don't want them to reveal all to me either.
