"she slips her bra off through her sleeve, an old trick she learned when she played volleyball in high school"

two questions here:

1. what bra-wearer DOESN'T know that trick?

2. what on earth does volleyball have to do with removing your bra???

@rigormorphis i think its meant to imply that she was taking her bra off under her shirt as like, a modesty thing in the locker room??? but i 100% could not get a sports bra on without taking my shirt off so im not sure what good that would do exactly

@Satsuma @rigormorphis 🤔 if you had a big enough shirt, you could sort of huddle underneath it like a tent to do that? But it would take so long and attract so much attention that it would almost be more modest to just strip.

Alternatively, I do have a couple of sports bras with hooks at the back like a regular bra, but they are not supportive enough for actual sports, ahaha. Maybe if you don’t need much support/control.

@Satsuma @rigormorphis wait, no, I’m sorry. It’s been a long time since high-school sports for me!

On a second read, it’s CLEARLY implying that her secret volleyball move was to slip off her bra and use it either to lasso the ball out of the air in a kind of lacrosse-esque manoeuvre, or to garotte the opposing team’s middle blocker.

@rigormorphis @villainousfriend 😂 you’re 100% right, clearly it was for improvisational garroting

@Satsuma @rigormorphis yeah that's how I was reading it too, and yeahhhhh my experience with bras was that any bra that's sufficiently well-fitting to provide real support is NOT going to be easy or even necessarily possible to maneuver off under a shirt/through the sleeve. although it is also real and true that many people wear bras that are far too loose for real support, even when playing sports!
