Companies charge more for XXL T-shirts; why not for DD+ brassieres?

The engineering challenges are daunting, and they require more material.

I've ordered T-shirts in bulk many times (for employers and clients to use as logowear), and there is almost always a $1 or $2 (per shirt) added charge for XXL and larger. Fact.

Ok, when i usually see XXL sized clothes they tend to be last leftovers in sale anyway, since only mutants need clothes that big. Or Americans.

Teenager finds baby bat in her bra

A teenager was stunned to find that a baby bat had been curled up inside her bra for five hours - as she was wearing it.

Miss Hawkins said the bat looked 'very snug' inside her bra

Abbie Hawkins, a hotel receptionist, thought her mobile phone was ringing when she felt vibrations coming from her clothes.

But she later discovered the tiny creature tucked away in the padded pocket of her underwear.

As staff and colleagues crowded around, Miss Hawkins, 19, produced the frightened bat, which was the size of her hand.

She said: "Once I realised it was a bat I was shocked, but then I felt quite sorry for it really.

"It looked very snug in there and I thought how mean I was for disturbing it."

Miss Hawkins said she got dressed at 7.30am and arrived for work at the Holiday Inn Norwich North, near Norwich International Airport without noticing anything unusual.

"When I was driving to work I felt a slight vibration but I thought it was just my mobile phone in my jacket pocket," she said.

It was not until her lunch break, at midday when she felt a strange movement inside her bra, which had been hanging on her washing line the previous night.

"I plucked up the courage to investigate and I pulled out a little baby bat. I just lost my breath when I saw it and I did not know what it was at first," she said.

The teenager's general manager freed the bat in the hotel garden.

"I keep thinking how could I have not known it was there?" Miss Hawkins said. "I will certainly be checking my bras every morning from now on."

Jaime Eastham, of the Bat Conservation Trust, said they had never heard of a bat being found in a bra before.

But she said the animals roost anywhere that appears dark and safe.

The engineering challenges are daunting, and they require more material. I don't think anyone cares what a COMPANY charges.

The problem here is that the GOVERNMENT decided to tax people differently based on their breast size.

I'm surprised the feminists aren't all over this one.

Then again feminists hate women with big boobs

[jackie Obrian]

Yeah, M & S aint the government yet.

This is a silly argument - of course it's not discriminatory to charge more for something that costs more to make.

A thread on boobs doesn't officially get silly until the obligatory double bounce appears:
