    Am I the only woman who is more comfortable being naked/ semi dressed around men than other women?

    OP, next time go elsewhere - M&S are terrible for bra fittings.
    Gone ... or have I?

    The question is do the mens changing rooms have a sign saying no women? As far as I know they don't so maybe M&S should pull thier finger out and sort both.
    Approach her; adore her. Behold her; worship her. Caress her; indulge her. Kiss her; pleasure her. Kneel to her; lavish her. Assert to her; let her guide you. Obey her as you know how; Surrender is so wonderful! For Caroline my Goddess.
  • Take her for a proper fitting at a specialist lingerie shop, like Bravissimo. There you get dressing gowns to wear while you change as well so even the fitter doesn't need to see you half clothed. M&S is over-rated for lingerie. Badly fitted, badly fitting.

    I have changed him on a resturant table before. I have not meet anyone who was anything other than helpfull. I just think sometimes I they don't think. I don't really care what anyone thinks I do what I think is right. So if baby needs fed or changed he gets fed or changed if someones offended the I don't care.

    I think slowly society is getting better and more excepting. Breast feeeding in public is now excepted (even protected in law in Scotland). Women get to use the pub beside men. Some things are going the wrong way though. Women only swimming, Women only classes. They use the excuse or cultural diffrences, but really its segragation. When I turned up at the pool once to the women only session (by mistake:-)) there was only one woman in the pool. As its a small pool I recognised the woman who also goes to the mixed sessions.


    When I looked after my son there was a class I thought would be fun to attend with him. I was told I could not go because it was for women only and it would cause offence to the women. Its not as if they were naked. Also why not ask them if they would mind rather than assume. I think most women are relitively comfortable in a state of undress or semi undress in front of many as long as they don't feel threated?

    I hear the fraulines like big sausages in Germany ;)
    I went with my partner a few years back to a spa in Germany, everyone was naked (no choice). As a brit I stared for about 10 minutes then relaxed and did not really notice anything. Interestingly nobody seemed hung up on their or anyone elses body. There was people of all ages and shapes.

    Easy DMG.

    As for bra fitting, should the fastner be at the front or the back?

    At the back - front fasteners always seem to pop open on me (although I don't think they make them in the size I am now :eek: ), and back fasteners are a good indicator of a man's skill! ;)
