Argumentative Essay: What Is A Bra Necessary?

Superior Essays
If any woman states that she enjoys wearing a bra, she is a liar. There are endless choices when it comes to selecting a bra. Some of these options include push up bras, t-shirt bras, sports bras, strapless bras, bralettes, and so on. As a seventeen-year-old who has tried them all, I have come to the conclusion that I hate bras. Yes, they may provide support for the “girls” but I believe they cause more grief than they are worth.

These also happen to cost a fortune. Is it too much to ask of the hardworking women to want to be comfortable throughout their daily lives? According to society, yes. The strapless bra is next to be placed on trial. Meant to be an easy way to wear strapless clothing, this bra has an adhesive strap that supposedly stays in place throughout the day. However, bras are diabolical devices and never intend to actually be helpful. Throughout a normal day, people tend to sweat, move, and breathe. Strapless bras do not accommodate any of these demanding tasks, therefore forcing the woman to tug the bra back into its rightful position all day. As you can see, no matter which bra style a person chooses, comfort is not an

    In the articles “Three Cheers for the Nanny State,” “Ban the Ban!,” and “Soda’s a Problem but…”, all three authors present their arguments with facts, opinions, and counterclaims. However, one article presents itself better than the rest. I believe that the article “Soda’s a Problem, but...” was the most convincing article. Sarah Conly- the author who wrote “Three Cheers for the Nanny State”- argues that the soda restriction is a good idea because people would be stopped from making foolish decisions that they’ll pretty definitely regret.…

    Hungry for Change Why is it that law mandates public school meals have a minimum calorie intake, but not a maximum? This owes itself to the fact that when nutrition standards were established for public schools, it was to solve the problem of undernourishment. The majority of school aged children used to walk to school, played more outside, and were more active in sports. This resulted in children burning more calories than school meals provided.…

    An Eye for an Eye When turning on the television, radio, or simply opening the local newspaper, news of arrests, murders, kidnappings, rape, and other such tragedies bombard people. Rarely is there an occasion where people can go throughout a day in this world without hearing of these events. There is a risk one takes when he/she decides to pull a trigger or plunge a knife, but around 1754 B.C. the stakes were even higher. “An eye for an eye” was the motto back when everything was done exactly as it sounded. If a person were to destroy the eye of another person, the man would get his eye taken out; this is why the phrase “an eye for an eye” was made (ushistory.org).…
