Given all the lovely comments and thank you’s to my first two “golden oldie” posts, here’s another “blast from the past”.
With due deference to the meaning of the word “hooker” in various parts of this mortal coil here’s a question about putting on your bra
As most “real females” are trained to do since puberty, with my breast forms adhered, I love putting my arms through my bra straps, putting my breasts into the lacy cups then doing up my bra behind my back. “IE a “back hooker” Such a femme thing to do!!.
Tho it is not recommended by those in the know about bras, it is said this method considerably reduces the life of the bra, I have also seen and heard of folks who put their bras on by wrapping it around their middle and doing up the hooks in the bra in front . Then spin the bra around and “front load” their breasts in the bra cups
Which “bra cup” are you in?.
Happy (bra) dressing
Caty
And when the bra is a lovely comfy “Fayrefrom Coral” or one of my (on clearance) Simone Perele’s… so much the better

- Act of ” Folding hands backward and hook the Bra ” is itself very Feminine. I just Love it .
Actually even adjusting shoulder strip and band strip is also pleasurable act.

I fasten the hooks where I want them and slide it on like a knit shirt… position the silicone twins where they look right, straighten the back, if necessary and call it good. Ha!

LadyRegistered On: November 20, 2020Topics: 1Replies: 11Has thanked: 15 timesBeen thanked: 52 timesGiven a choice I front hook and spin. But being that I am using a modified bra (lined cup turned into a pocket bra) it’s front, spin and adjust. But on occasion I have used the pull over the head and pull down to adjust. The straps on a “racerback” sports bra don’t separate like a regular bra, so placement of the prosthetics into the sport model has to be done before you put it on. The only option at that point is over the head, down and adjust. I have found that hooking the clasps on a regular bra and using the same technique works as well.

LadyRegistered On: January 23, 2020Topics: 4Replies: 289Has thanked: 421 timesBeen thanked: 987 timesI prefer to fasten in the front and spin into place. That way I get all of the hook in the right holes.
A first, questions like these may be just a bit of amusing chit-chat but I bet not all ladies knew they had an option. I don’t think I did when I first wore my first bra in the distant, misty unseen past. So this is informative, even enlightening.
I prefer a C-cup, probably actually am a 50 (blush) but with extenders I can get on a 38-B/C with extenders of a pushup.
My big beef is that the spacing between breasts is sometimes a bit too narrow for some male physiques.

LadyRegistered On: July 8, 2020Topics: 2Replies: 9Has thanked: 25 timesBeen thanked: 84 timesI can do it both ways but I prefer the way I have seen women do it including my wife.
However, since I have grown my own breasts, I feel I have no choice but to do it the way bra fitters say is best.
So yes, I hook in the front and spin it around but its more complicated than that if you have breasts.
You hook it up, spin it around and then bend over allowing your breasts to hang in front while you pull up the bra cups and fit the breasts properly and then stand straight and make sure that everything is symmetrical and voila, you are ready to meet the day.Funny thing, I taught my wife this trick and she does it now. She says she has never been more comfortable wearing a bra.
Hmmm, I teased her “you have to learn these bra tricks from a cross dresser?”
Don’t mothers teach these things to their daughters? LOL4 users thanked author for this post.

Sometimes I use a special strap in back designed to keep the straps from slipping of my shoulders. When I wear those the best way to put it on is to pre-hook,attach the straps,and then put it on over my head kind of like a tee shirt. In any case if when you are done the cups face forward and the straps are on your shoulder then you have put it on correctly.

I smashed my clavicle in an accident so am left with a plate and 12 screws which makes life a little awkward wearing bras.

I’ve done the hook and spin method but don’t really like it. Too much work for me. I used to always be in a hurry when I got dressed so the back hook was quicker also.

My wife hooks it in the front and spins it around and told me that was the correct method. She also commented that I hadn’t leaned forward and scooped my boobs into the cup, which was true. But that was only because I’m still not fully comfortable wearing bras in front of her. I wasn’t sure how she’d react if I had scooped my boobs.

When spinning it to the back; I do it a little at a time, slow and careful. This way I’m not over-stretching the band and prevents “skin rub”. I’ve seen a few suggest hooking the band under the arm, I think I’ll try that method.

Then spin the bra around and “front load” their breasts in the bra cups
Front loading is the method that stretches bras more, not “back hooking”

Mostly cause I’ve seen women snag them on shelves and have them come undone. Plus they usually have a tendency to wear out faster.
After finding a front closure one I fell in love. While the back hookers are fine, I swear by the front hooking ones now.

I actually find it much easier than doing it in the front and spinning it. I hook the clasp first, bring it up to the right height, and then put my arms through the straps. With some bralettes, I bend forward and let my “little” man boobs fall into the lacy cups; that’s a nice feeling. Stay healthy, stay safe, Hugs, Krista.

The first time I tried I failed miserably, so I hooked it together and tried to pull it on like a shirt. It was a tight squeeze and probably not good for the bra. I did that a couple of times, then started fastening in the front and turned it around.
Then I read somewhere (opposite of what you’ve found it seems), that fastening in the front and turning stretches them more, so now I always try to hook it up in the back. If it’s just not working or I’m short on time, I’ll hook it on the side so I’m only turning half way instead of all the way (I read somewhere that was a compromise that stretches the bra a little less than crossing in front and turning all the way around).

Maybe practice makes perfect, but I can hook a bra up like a …, well, like a girl. Guess it was an inborn ability waiting to be utilized. Lol.

I have been a spinner which is fine but not particularly lady like. This morning I am wearing a basque, the spinning technique does not work too well so I laboriously fastened the hooks and eyes on the side and spun the basque through only 90 degrees. That worked but the top bra part still needed fastening for which I reverted to the “back hooker” technique. At last I got there. I somehow suspect the back hooking process was invented by a man!!
Either that or the method for fastening a basque was always intended to be a two person job. Sensual if nothing else.
I have however discovered a great front fastening clasp, on a Vince Camuto bra. Highly recommended. But that is the engineer in me.
Just got to get those stockings on and I am complete.

It depends mostly on which bra I am putting on. My long lines, my top favorite style, are always hooked in front and turned around as I learned when young I always got the hooks out of line, missing either the top one or bottom.
Underdressing and working out on the yard I wear sports bra and put them on like a T-shirt.

LOL. When I typed my response, the same naughty thought crossed my mind. Shame on us. And I have wondered how to GGs keep those hooks aligned? I usually have to give up and spin.

When I had some regular bras, I would hook them in the front and spin them around, loop my arms and pull them up. I am a solid A cup, although I fit in a few B cup bras. Depends on the bra.

My favorite bralettes are hooked in back; but I have a couple of bras whose hooks I can never get to align correctly. For those, I do the spin. Plus, I have a couple of very comfortable bras which hook in front.

I do really enjoy hooking the back up after I’ve placed it around me where I want it. Gives me a very positive feeling.
