You’d think that, being a body image blogger, PR companies may be a little more careful about the materials they send over. When I receive a pitch e-mail from a PR agency, I almost ALWAYS look at it – unless “Bieber” is in the title. Sometimes I regret it, sometimes I’m extremely happy with the pitch contents! This morning, however, I was let down. Bigtime.
Subject: Top 10 Bra Don’ts
Ok, interested… I’m a buxom chick, and I’ll see what this has to say.
It’s some pre-formed content – a list (obviously) – and I see that it’s written by the owner of a lingerie webstore, which I won’t name because I’m a classy ranter.
The first few “Don’ts” were acceptable. Typical things – avoid quad-boob, don’t put up with slipping straps, yadda yadda. Then this:
4. Don’t forget about gravity. Wearing a bra is not just a matter of appropriateness it’s a necessity. After babies, a little weight gain and general aging, your breasts are simply not what they used to be.
…They aren’t? What? Are you judging my breasts from a PR e-mail? For real?
