    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.

    I ordered some of the Bezi bra discs this morning. Will report back. Shipping is ridiculous ($8.50 for tiny little things?!), but with the $10 off promo for signing up for their mailing list, I was willing to give them a try.

    I'll be interested to hear your opinion Emily. I wonder how they will feel in hot weather. I envision an unbearable urge to rip them off...but it would be nice to have something that worked.

    Just an update -- I got these back in late June and have been very happy with them. They are comfortable. Most of the time I forget I'm using them. And they work as advertised. They're also more comfortable than a padded bra on a hot day.

    Cool! I cannot seem to find ANYTHING to dim the headlights, even good bras with padding doesn't seem to help I may have to give these a shot, thanks!
