Q: Why the giant clasps?

Now, I have seen a fair amount of bras here in China; both in shops on on the bodies of nubile females (or fat hoppers). One thing I can't understand - why the massive clasps? There is barely anything to hold in! (generally)

 

Back home (UK) they have two hooks at the back on a thin strap. Three at most.

 

Is it a challenge? Is it a small back brace?

 

Theories please!

They are security freaks like having metal doors, iron bars on windows, eight locks on bicycles etc. Maybe it makes them feel safe.

I put it down to the density of liquid silicon padding. It's a lot denser than natural bra filler, so it needs more support.

 

Throwing a Chinese bra away from the bed during a passionate interlude can often result in tables and chairs being knocked over. I once heard of one going through a plate glass window and mortally wounding an innocent passer by 20 floors below wink.

There are 2 types of women here; skinny and butchers wife. the clasps hold in all that bulk for the butchers wives trying to thin themselves out a la corset.

A:Good question!  I'd say, if you study at Uni in China beside working full-time as an E.T. with Residence permit, you don't interfere with your full-time employment.It's your free time and you can do anything you want, with respect to the Chinese laws and customs. Have a look at terms of Z visa/Residence permit and ... ".. you cannot work (and earn monies!) with another employer ..."That's all it is! Your RP sponsor title is written on the RP stamp in your passport, I think. It's in Mandarin, so I've heard about that from someone ...At I.D.-ing by cops, they know where you work and than more details about you are just a phone call away ... and it happened in person ... LOL ... during the day-time stroll through Wulumuqi, Xinjiang, 2012/13 semester. Now under RP, you're free to surf Internet, jog, ... and study, too. I suggest, you look and ask at the Uni, you plan to study in the future. Have a detailed look at requirements for studying and attending chosen Uni.Good luck! -- icnif77
