I was listening to the news on the radio the other day and I heard them talking about a solar bra. I think that falls into the ‘weird news’ category or maybe strange gadgets. Perhaps not the weirdest of all stories I have shared here, but still strange. If you think that is strange then you better brace yourself for the butt bra.
Reuters has reported that a Japanse company is designing a solar-powered bra (Taiyoko Hatsuden Bra) capable of generating enough electricity to charge a cell phone or iPod. It charges when the bra is worn without other clothing. I don’t know about other women, but I’m not comfortable walking around in the sun in just a bra.
The Bum Bra
US psychologist Dr Karin Hart has patented a bra for the bum called the Biniki. The new bum bra will help sagging buttocks. There is also a version for men called the Maniki. The bum bra comes in three size a a, b, and c. What no D? The bra is currently available through direct sales from the inventor Dr. Karin Hart. Visit biniki-fashions.com.

Nah, only 6.
When I was younger, most women wore bum bras–we called them girdles, and they were torture devices .

hmmm, think I could wear my speedo over one??? on second thought, I have to remember I’m a bit long toothed to wear a speedo, my crowd might lift an eyebrow or two—but then again they could easily totally ignore me—I hate that , when they do that.
