What’s the most loving day in February? Not Valentine’s Day, but the day before. February 13^th is Dead Bra Day, named by Sue Richards of Breast of Canada to celebrate better breast health. It’s a day to show some real love to your “girls” by tossing out your tattered tit-slingers and replacing them with more supportive foundations. Let’s be honest, most of our everyday bras can’t last the year, unless we’re hand washing and hanging them to dry. And if you haven’t been fitted since last Valentine’s Day, it’s about time you paid attention to these appendages which lay so close to your heart. 

Those of us tired of the daily torture can rip off our wired cages without guilt. Experts agree there’s no medical reason to wear a bra. They won’t stop your breasts from sagging. That’s got more to do with your DNA than whether you’re strapped into the right cup size. Women wear them for convenience and fashion. It’s easier to keep our breasts confined during the work day; and more fun to place a perky pair aloft for an evening out. Which brings us to another good reason to celebrate Dead Bra Day: your sweetheart is sure to appreciate any gift you give to your tits. Proving the old saying that what’s good for your boobs is also good for a gander.  (Thank you, Sue Richards!)

The Boob Lady nearly busted out of her bra when she found this 2007 wall calendar for her Boob Cave! I’d been looking at several breast-baring timekeepers and found many celebrating our girls, but most favored a similar breast size, shape, and age. This “mammist” view of the world seemed a bit unreal—and not very friendly and inclusive (a lot like walking into an ice cream store only to discover one, albeit tasty, flavor available).  

Fortunately, Sue Richards, founder of Breast of Canada, has captured the unlimited spirit of women’s breasts in the beautiful 2007 Breast of Canada Calendar. It contains a wonderful variety of topless poses, from humorous and casual, to sensual and serious; each month more inspiring than the last. And Breast of Canada is filled with useful boob info, including helpful quotes, statistics, and even a picturesque breast self-exam chart. Plus, all proceeds benefit breast health.

If you’re a boob admirer, please order this calendar today. Give it as a gift to the boobs you love best, whether yours or those of a breast friend. It’s sure to provide an uplifting start to your New Year!
