The Hand Bra: Hey, here's something that doesn't need to exist
I just want to go on record right now with my opinion of the Hand Bra as an acceptable lingerie choice: No. My opinion is a big, fat "No." What's a Hand Bra? Sadly, this:
Obviously, this is a gag version. Unfortunately, and for reasons I can't begin to fathom, a real version appears to be in the works (possibly NSFW):
Again, for the record, Hand Bra: No.
And while we're at it: Snuggie worship? Also no. How do we not have flying cars yet, but sh*t like this is invented every single day?

I'm okay with the concept. What I'm not okay with is the chubby fingers that look like a toddler's.

Heather, stop being a hater and just wear one already!
I have a feeling that a few of your commenters would love to offer you the "real life" version!

Boobs seem to have become a common theme in your posts as of late. Not that I'm complaining but rather an observation.

@brodiemash: Maybe. Or maybe that's just what you choose to remember.

@karma: You're right: the hands-on-boobs thing isn't exactly original. Barbra Streisand rocked the look back in the day.

Wow. That has got to be one of the most disturbing things I've ever seen!

Okay, Heather....about this mammofixation.
There is a, uh, "support" group.
Contact me.

this could really work to prevent cold nips from poking through your t-shirt...now you will just see big fat fake hands...NOT.

oh...dear...god...
Since they are producing the pasty white version, here are a few more suggestions:
1) "Shop Teacher Hands" for the lady who wants a bit more exposure.
2) "Coke Nail Hands" for the lady who wants support and may have an itch to scratch.
3) "Hair Knuckle Hands" for the lady who desires support and warmth.
4) "Callused Hands" for the lady who thinks a nice bumpy massage is of greater priority.
5) "Piano Player Hands" for the lady who requires more.
6) "Michael Jackson Hands" for your favorite tween...

Incidentally, the silver hands you have a picture of I saw many years ago online. If I remember correctly it was actually an art piece someone did in solid silver, or something similar. I can't find any reference to it now, though, just instances of that photo all OVER the place, on numerous blogs.
This reminds me of the "Holding Your Own Boobs" thing Sarah Michelle Gellar did on Saturday Night Live a long time ago.

this also begs the question as to why there isn't a guy version in the works. Perhaps an athletic supporter?
