The August issue of British Journal of Plastic Surgeons will apparently carry a story about “a hapless Romeo [who] suffered major ligament damage and a fracture to one of his fingers while tackling his lady’s brassiere,” according to The New York Post.
For one thing, it says surveys show that 40 percent of men in their 30s and 40s have difficulty removing bras.
And it cites a recent test that found men spend an average of 27 seconds taking bras off, when using both hands.
When right-handed men used their left hand, it took an average of 58 seconds.
