Awkwardly funny questions.

I'm sure we've all had a few.
I had one at the gym yesterday.

Since I recently had lipo to smooth out some lumpy chest areas, I'm wearing a compression binder again, which looks like a sports bra under a tank top or shirt.

Yesterday, after I'd finished my bit of cardio and took my headphones out, the lady on the treadmill next to me asked what kind of sports bra I had on because she noticed I didn't bounce at all while jogging and was just, "I'd LOVE to find a sports bra that supportive!"

I told her it was a binder as I'd just had revision surgery to my mastectomy (which is the main reason I don't bounce, there's nothing there TO bounce anymore! ) and she looked just mortified!

I did assure her that it was okay and that I wasn't offended, I know the binder looks like a sports bra, and recommended that, if she can't find an actual sports bra that's supportive enough for her liking, to look into fitting herself for a binder as those are meant to flatten and hold things firmly in place in AND if they're measured and fitted properly, you can exercise with them on.
