给女性美满性高潮的四种姿势
四种保证美满性生活的最佳方法：
CAT
直线交合技巧(CAT)，是指在采用传教士式时，前后摇摆的角度成直角。
大多数女性不是仅靠抽插就能获得高潮，所以这一招就是让你的阴蒂也参与进来。著名的CAT体位的原理也很简单：
·他在你的上方，让他的骨盆在上方与你的排成一列，这就意味着他会在上方的位置比平时要高，而且他要用肘支撑身体，这样他在进入你时他会移动得更高。这就意味着接着他在冲刺时会压向你的耻骨及阴蒂。
·为了加大压力，他会将全部体重压在你身上(如果他的体格比你要大很多很多，就不要尝试此法)而你就要用双腿夹住他的大腿。
·然后，在他向下推进时你就将骨盆向上顶，而且只要保持稳定的节奏来互相挤压，高潮肯定就会来临。
寻找G点
专家们指出，难以捉摸的G点与大脑中的性高潮中枢相连，所以才会成为著名的快感核心。尽管有很多人怀疑G点是否真的存在，还是有很多女性体会到在这一点上更为深入、持久和激烈的高潮。如果你想体验一下G点的感觉，要注意你只能在“性致高涨”时才能感觉到这一点。因为只有在兴奋状态下，这一区域才会因充血膨胀而凸现出来。
你可以在阴道内5厘米(2英寸)处的前壁上找到这一点。
G点高潮
在性爱中刺激G点的一个好方法就是采用老式的桌上做爱法。
·背部放平仰卧
·当他靠近时将你的双腿架在他肩上，并且让他在进入时用手扶住你的臀部。
·一旦他开始律动，他的阴茎就会结结实实的撞在你的G点上。
·第一次经历G点高潮，你或许会有想要小便的感觉(G点靠近尿道)但这种感觉很快就会消退，然后被高潮的感觉所替代。
PC肌
我们都有一种“爱情肌肉”，就是所谓的PC(pubococcygeal)肌肉。在女性体内，它们控制着阴道大小以及夹紧动作，所以要让它们发挥功能是很重要的。如果这些肌肉得到增强，就能增强你的性高潮。而且这些肌肉变得强壮些，也有利于让你的男友达到高潮。
要锻炼这些肌肉，你只需在小便时将尿流暂停10到15秒钟然后继续释放。定期进行这种练习，就可以使你的性生活得到十倍的改善。
测试这些肌肉的最佳体位是“男下女上式”，就是爬到他的身上。要确定插入时你的重量是分散在双腿上的，在你上下摆动时试着旋转式的移动。
当他忍耐不住的时候，你就要向下压去，同时夹紧你的PC肌(开始要慢一些，避免力道过大)这样他就能感觉被你夹紧。同时让他充分利用他的双手(爱摸你的乳房以及阴蒂)，接着你就可以向后仰身迎接幸福的顶峰。
向后弯曲式
(“男下女上”式的变化形式)
·让他坐在一把牢固的椅子上，然后爬上他的大腿。
·用双腿钩住他的大腿，身体向后倾斜。
·你的最终目的就是躺在他的大腿上，将你的头部和肩部悬过他膝盖边缘(让他负责支撑你的身体)。
·如果你感到不安全，就把双臂举过头顶，这样就可以触到地面了。
·接着你要抱住他的臀部，把自己拉向他，然后让他进入。想要更激烈的？那就在他冲刺时将你的背部和骨盆向上拱起。
插入式
(这是传教士式的变化形式)
身体缓缓后仰，用双手然后是肘部支撑身体，一直向下压。这样，最终你会平躺在自己打开的大腿上，双腿折叠压在身下。
接着将双臂举过头，让他在你身上躺下然后进入。
这一招的目的并不在于姿势，而在于可以提供一个使他更加深入的角度，绝对会让你心满意足(这全亏了你的膝盖把你的骨盆顶了起来)。
倚墙式
(站立式以及小狗式的变化形式)
面向卧室的墙壁然后弯曲身体，这样你就可以伸出双手撑在墙上。
·分开双腿，将臀部向外翘起。
·接下来，让他从后方接近，将身体倾向你，扶住你的臀部从后方进入。
·同时让他将双手绕向前方，刺激你的阴蒂。
·如果你们俩人因身高相差太大而不能采用面对面的站立式，使用这种方法的效果会更好。
速战速决式
对于那些对细节马马虎虎、又懒得脱光衣服的朋友们来说可是上上之选。“速战速决式”的冲击力很强，但只要你没有苛刻的要求，也可以与“持久战”一样火热、圆满。
还有一个好处就是，你在任何地方都可以采用这种方式(只要把短裤拉到一边就行了)，它打破了只能每周定期在床上进行性生活的陈腐观念，而且的确摄人心魄。

Bra Glossary
Bra Glossary
Athletic Bras (Also see Sports Bras.)
When you move, so does your bust. It's called "bounce." And it can cause discomfort during workouts. Repeated bounce can even damage tissue. The solution? A good athletic bra. Athletic bras give needed support to help control jarring bounce. Most provide either medium or high motion control, depending on whether they're designed for moderate or intense activity levels. Many athletic bras also wick away moisture to keep you cool and dry.
Average-Figure Bras (Also see Moderate-Support Bras.)
Do you wear bra size 34 or 36, with a B or C cup? Then you'll want an average-figure bra providing moderate support. Fortunately, most bras come in your size, so you have many styles to choose from!
Banded Bras
A banded bra has a fabric band that extends beneath the cups. Usually this band is elasticized for easy, flexible fit. Often it's plush-lined for comfort. It keeps the bra anchored in place plus provides added support. Banded bras can be either underwire bras or wire-free.
Bandless Bras A bandless bra has no fabric band underneath the cups. Instead, the underwire channels form the bra's bottom edge. The bra's center and sides connect directly to these channels. The result is "less bra, more you": a clean, contemporary look.
Breathable Bras
Want to stay cool when your day heats up? Choose today's new breathable bras. Some are made with special fabrics designed to wick moisture from your skin, so you stay comfortably dry. Others have cup linings with tiny air pockets to allow refreshing ventilation.
Comfort-Strap Bras
Do your bra straps dig into your shoulders? Try switching to comfort-strap bras. Comfort-strap bras have wide cushioned straps that disperse pressure, relieve strain, and ease dig-in. Some comfort straps are cushioned with fiberfill. Others are filled with gel.
Contour Bras (Also see Molded-Cup Bras.)
Contour bras conform to your curves for a naturally shapely look. Most have sculpted cups, either lined or lightly padded, plus wires for lift and shaping. Many contour bras give superb support, so they're ideal for full-busted women. Others also enhance the bust, so they're perfect for smaller figures.
Convertible Bras
Sometimes you'd like to wear a strapless gown. Or a halter top. Or a tank. But who wants bra straps peeking out? Your solution: a convertible bra. Convertible bras have detachable straps that allow several wearing options. Remove the straps to go strapless. Attach them halter or crisscross style to wear under sleeveless tops. Even attach one strap diagonally to wear with one-shoulder fashions. A must for every woman's wardrobe.
CoolMax® Bras
That sweaty feeling? Forget about it. Choose a bra made with CoolMax polyester. This smooth performance fabric wicks moisture away from your skin, so you stay cooler and drier. Many sports bras and even some everyday bras contain some CoolMax fibers.
Cut-and-Sewn Bras (Also see Seamed Bras.)
Do you prefer bras that provide extra support? Consider a "cut-and-sewn" bra. Cut-and-sewn bras are highly constructed, with two-section or three-section cups. The cup sections are sewn together (seamed). The more seams, the greater the support. Which means you look and feel better. Choose from both wire-free and underwire styles.
Demi Bras
Do you long to take the plunge--with v-neck or low-cut fashions? Wear a demi bra underneath. Demi bras cover the nipple but not the entire breast. They have lower-cut necklines than standard bras, and wider-set ("camisole") straps. So, you can wear your favorite low-cut looks without worrying about peek-a-boo bra tops.
Foam-Cup Bras or Foam-Lined Bras or Stretch-Foam Bras
Do you wear knits, T-shirts, or other body-conscious styles? Then you'll want at least one foam-lined bra. Foam bras have cups lined with sleek, thin stretch foam, made of non-allergenic material. This foam conforms to your curves for gap-free custom fit. It provides smooth, natural shaping. And, best of all, it helps block show-through, so you can wear clingy clothes with confidence. Plus, since this foam is thinner than padding, it doesn't add extra bulk.
When stretch foam is ultra-thin, it's called micro-foam. When it's contoured — thinner at the sides and thicker toward the center — it's called graduated foam.
Front-Close Bras or Front-Hook Bras
Most bras fasten in back, usually with hooks and eyes. But front-close bras fasten in front with either hooks or clasps. This allows fast, easy "on / off." Ideal when you're dressing in a hurry. Great for women with arthritis. And perfect with low-cut tops.
Full-Figure Bras (Also see Plus-Size Bras.)
Do you wear a bra size between 38-50C-DD--or larger? Then you'll want a full-figure bra (either underwire or wire-free). Full-figure bras provide greater support than petite or average bras. Often they have wide cushioned straps, foam lining or fiberfill padding, and closures with three or four rows of hooks and eyes. Many full-figure bras are custom-designed for plus-size silhouettes.
Full-Support Bras
Even if you don't need a full-figure bra, you may require full support. Full-support bras provide lift and support via clever design details: seamed cups with banded edges, hidden under-cup slings, wide side wings, plus two- or three-hook closures. They may be either wire-free or underwire.
Gel-Strap Bras
Prefer bras with cushioned straps? Then you'll love our gel-strap bras. The straps are infused with silicone gel, so they're especially light on your shoulders. They disperse pressure more evenly, relieve strain, and ease dig-in, for comfort hour after hour.
Half-Size Bras
Are you between cup sizes? Is A too small but B too roomy? Is B a bit snug while C's too large? Try one of our half-size bras (exclusively from our Playtex® Thank Goodness It Fits® collection). These bras come in both full and half bra sizes, including NA (Nearly A), NB (Nearly B), and NC (Nearly C). So, they provide a more perfect fit, customized to your curves.
Laminated-Cup Bras
Laminated-cup bras are a lot like molded-cup bras. The cups consist of two fabric layers bonded or sealed together. These cups look sleek, not bulky. Yet their two-ply construction gives them extra strength for better support and shaping.
Light-Support Bras
Do you wear a bra size between 32 and 36, with a cup size like AA, A, or B? You'll want a light-support bra. Many light-support bras are unlined and wire-free, with seamless cups, bandless edges, and cutaway wings. These bras provide shaping plus just a bit of support. And, when they're made of soft fabrics like microfiber, they feel like they're "barely there."
Lycra® Spandex Bras
If your bra stretches, then it probably contains spandex. Spandex is a synthetic fiber with built-in "stretch memory." It's usually blended with another fabric, such as cotton, polyester, or nylon.
When you stretch, your spandex bra stretches with you. When you relax, it "remembers" (and recovers) its original shape. Result? You enjoy custom fit, all-day comfort, free-moving ease, plus shape-keeping durability. Many spandex bras contain anywhere from 2% to 15% spandex.
Lycra® spandex is a premium spandex produced and marketed by Invista. It is used in many stretch bras.
Maternity Bras or Nursing Bras
During pregnancy and right afterward, you need a special bra: a nursing / maternity bra.
Maternity bras come in softer fabrics to pamper tender tissue. The cups usually stretch to accommodate changing breast size. Plus, the cups have special openings for easy access during nursing.
Microfiber Bras
For skin-caressing softness, nothing beats microfiber fabric. This high-tech synthetic is made with ultra-fine filaments, tightly knit for super smoothness. So, it's literally softer than silk. Plus, it breathes well, for cooling comfort.
All microfiber bras come in this ultra-soft fabric. These bras pamper your skin, keep their shape, and wash with ease. And, since they're so smooth, your clothes glide right on and drape more gracefully, too.
Microfiber bras can be either nylon or polyester, often with a little added spandex for stretch-perfect fit.
Minimizer Bras
Do your blouses gap in front? You may need a minimizer bra (available only in larger cup sizes). Minimizer bras reduce your bust-line by up to one cup size or more. They gently redistribute tissue to shape and streamline your curves. Result: Your clothes fit and feel better. Choose from seamed and seamless minimizer bras, in both wire-free and underwire styles.
Moderate-Support Bras (Also see Average-Figure Bras.)
Do you wear bra size 34 or 36, with a B or C cup? Then you'll want a moderate-support bra. Fortunately, most bras come in your size, so you have many styles to choose from!
Moisture-Wicking Bras
Perspiration can feel hot and sticky. The solution? A moisture-wicking bra. Moisture-wicking bras feature special fabrics that pull moisture away from your skin. (It's called "wicking.") The moisture then evaporates quickly and leaves you comfortably dry. Moisture-wicking bras can be either sports bras or everyday styles.
Molded-Cup Bras (Also see Contour Bras.)
Prefer a naturally shapely look? Choose a bra with molded cups. These cups conform to your curves and mimic your body's contours. So, they fit like a second skin...and work with your shape, not against it. Usually they're lined or lightly padded, with underwires for lift and shaping.
No-Wire Bras (Also see Soft-Cup Bras and Wire-Free Bras.)
No-wire bras have no underwires...which can mean greater comfort. And today many no-wire bras also offer great support, thanks to clever design details: criss-cross frames; inner under-cup slings; 2-ply, molded, lined, or padded cups. Some no-wire bras give light to moderate support, for petite to average figures. Others furnish full support.
Padded Bras
Sometimes you want a little extra boost. That's where padded bras come in. Padded bras have thicker padding than regular stretch-foam bras. Their cups are lined with enough foam or fiberfill to add volume as well as shaping. Many padded bras add up to an entire cup size. So, they're ideal for women who'd like to enhance their assets.
Plus-Size Bras (Also see Full-Figure Bras.)
Do you wear a bra size between 38-50C-DD--or larger? Consider a plus-size bra (either underwire or wire-free). Plus-size bras provide greater support than petite or average bras. Often they have wide cushioned straps, foam lining or fiberfill padding, and closures with three or four rows of hooks and eyes. Many plus-size bras are custom-designed for women with fuller figures.
Push-up Bras
Every woman needs at least one push-up bra. So, go ahead--indulge! Push-up bras make your cleavage look fuller, rounder, and sexier. The cups are cleverly angled to give your curves a boost. Plus, they're usually padded to shape and enhance your bust. Sometimes they have small removable pads--called cookies--for extra volume.
Racer-Back Bras
Racer-back bras have Y-shaped backs that curve in between the shoulder blades. These racing-style backs add extra support plus keep bra straps anchored in place. Many sports bras and even some everyday bras have racer-back designs. Racer-back bras work well under sleeveless tops: The bra straps won't peek out or slide off shoulders.
Santoni® Bras (Also see Seam-Free / Stitch Free Bras.)
Santoni bras are seamless all over, not just in the cups. The only seams appear where the bra straps attach to the bra. Result? Santoni bras feel blissfully soft and look super-smooth under clothes. The secret's the special fabric, knit in one seamless piece on a circular knitting machine. For ultimate comfort, try a Santoni bra made of silky-soft stretch microfiber.
Seamed Bras (Also see Cut-&-Sewn Bras.)
Do you prefer bras that provide extra support? Consider a seamed bra. Seamed bras are highly constructed, with two-section or three-section cups. The cup sections are sewn together (seamed). The more seams, the greater the support. Which means you look and feel better. Choose from both wire-free and underwire styles.
Seamless Bras
Want a smooth no-line look under clothes? Opt for a seamless bra. Seamless bras have cups with no seams, for a sleek modern silhouette. Many seamless bras have clever details designed to add support--such as special linings and hidden under-cup slings.
Seam-Free / Stitch-Free Bras (Also see Santoni® Bras.)
Seam-free bras are seamless all over, not just in the cups. The only seams appear where the bra straps attach to the bra. Result? Seam-free bras feel blissfully soft and look super-smooth under clothes. The secret's the special fabric, knit in one seamless piece on a circular knitting machine. For ultimate comfort, try a seam-free bra made of silky-soft stretch microfiber.
Shelf Bras
Shelf bras provide a light layer of fabric for modesty. Usually they have an elastic bottom band for support. Shelf bras are often sewn inside camisoles and swimsuits.
Soft-Cup Bras (Also see No-Wire Bras and Wire-free Bras.)
Soft-cup have no underwires...which can mean greater comfort. And today many soft-cup bras also offer great support, thanks to clever design details: criss-cross frames; inner under-cup slings; 2-ply, molded, lined, or padded cups. Some soft-cup bras give light to moderate support, for petite to average figures. Others furnish full support.
Sports Bras (Also see Athletic Bras.)
When you move, so does your bust. It's called "bounce." And it can cause discomfort during workouts. Repeated bounce can even damage tissue. The solution? A good sports bra. Sports bras give needed support to help control jarring bounce. Most provide either medium or high motion control, depending on whether they're designed for moderate or intense activity levels. Many sports bras also wick away moisture to keep you cool and dry.
Strapless Bras
If you're wearing a strapless gown, you need a strapless bra — a bra with no shoulder straps. Today's strapless bras stay up better than ever, and also give great support, thanks to design details such as padding, boning, and shaping panels. Many strapless bras come with detachable straps for multiple wearing options.
T-Shirt Bras
Like many knit garments, T-shirts cling. Which means your bra seams (and your nipples) may show through. The solution? A T-shirt bra. T-shirt bras are usually seamless, so they're smooth under clingy clothes. Plus, they're either lined with sleek foam or lightly padded with polyfill, so they block embarrassing show-through.
Tricot Bras
Many full-support bras come in tricot (either nylon or polyester). This finely knit fabric doesn't stretch, so it provides more stable support. Plus, since it's thin and fine, it looks and feels light and sleek. That means tricot bras bring you the best of both: full support plus airy comfort.
Underwire Bras
Underwire bras have flexible wires inside the bottom cups. These wires provide lift and support for a shapely, sag-free look. Usually they're plush-backed or cushion-tipped to help assure no-poke comfort. Most underwire bras offer moderate to full support.
Wire-free Bras (Also see No-Wire Bras and Soft-Cup Bras.)
Wire-free have no underwires...which can mean greater comfort. And today many wire-free bras also offer great support, thanks to clever design details: criss-cross frames; inner under-cup slings; 2-ply, molded, lined, or padded cups. Some wire-free bras give light to moderate support, for petite to average figures. Others furnish full support.
SPORTS BRA GLOSSARY
MCR
Motion Control Rating. MCR evaluates the amount of breast motion ("bounce") involved in physical activities. It gauges the level of support a sports bra must provide in order to control bounce at particular activity levels. High MCR sports bras control bounce during intense activities. Medium MCR sports bras control bounce during more moderate workouts.
DOUBLE DRY® SPORTS BRAS
Double Dry Champion sports bras feature our exclusive Double Dry fabric. Unlike many wicking fabrics, Double Dry has two layers. The inner layer's capillary action quickly wicks moisture to the outer layer, where it cannot re-contact your skin. Result? Ultimate moisture control, for cooler, drier workouts.
SEAMLESS SPORTS BRAS
Seamless Champion sports bras are made with a revolutionary seam-free knitting process. There are no seams, not even side seams, and virtually no stitches. As a result, these sleek-fitting sports bras give you maximum support while reducing painful chafing. Some Champion sports bras combine seam-free styling with Double Dry moisture control, for ultimate support and comfort.
FULL-SUPPORT SPORTS BRAS
Certain Champion sports bras provide comfortable full support for larger-busted women. These bras combine sleek compression fabrics with designs that encapsulate the bust. Result: stable, secure support for C, D, and DD cups. That means full-figured women can participate in high-motion workouts—comfortably—with confidence.
COMPRESSION SPORTS BRAS
Some Champion sports bras are made with compression fabrics. These sleek stretch fabrics hug the breasts closer to the chest wall, for greater support and comfort. Most compression bras boast simple designs—no wires; non-adjustable straps—for faster, easier on / off. So, they're great for active women who put a premium on convenience.
UNDERWIRE SPORTS BRAS
Underwire Champion sports bras have flexible cushioned wires inside the bottom cups. These wires lift and support the breasts, for a shapelier, sag-free look. They also add extra stability to help control jarring bounce.
SPORTS BRAS WITH MOLDED CUPS
Some Champion sports bras have molded cups, designed to conform to your curves. These cups control breast motion ("bounce") without compressing your bust. Result: a sleek, sculpted silhouette with naturally shapely contours
INNERWEAR SPORTS BRAS
Many Champion sports bras are made to go under your clothes. These bras encapsulate the bust, to separate and stabilize the breasts. Result: ultimate support for high-intensity workouts. Often these innerwear bras include thoughtful design details and advanced performance features—such as comfort straps, cushioned underwires, and Double Dry moisture control.
SHAPING SPORTS BRAS
Champion shaping sports bras create naturally contoured curves. Typically they have molded two-ply cups and/or spacer-fabric linings...so they subtly enhance your bust as they shape, support, and define. The result is a truly feminine look that flatters every cup size.
T-BACK & RACER-BACK SPORTS BRAS
Many Champion sports bras have T- or Y-shaped backs, which curve in between the shoulder blades. These racer-style backs add extra support to help control damaging bounce. Plus, they keep bra straps anchored securely in place.
BACK-CLOSE SPORTS BRAS
Many Champion sports bras fasten in back with plush-lined hook-&-eye closures. The advantage? A sleeker, less bulky look in front.
FRONT-CLOSE SPORTS BRAS
Some Champion sports bras fasten in front, usually with plush-lined zippers. The advantage? These bras slip on and off easily—a special boon for full-figured women.
Athletic Bras (Also see Sports Bras.)
When you move, so does your bust. It's called "bounce." And it can cause discomfort during workouts. Repeated bounce can even damage tissue. The solution? A good athletic bra. Athletic bras give needed support to help control jarring bounce. Most provide either medium or high motion control, depending on whether they're designed for moderate or intense activity levels.

This foam conforms to your curves for gap-free custom fit. It provides smooth, natural shaping. And, best of all, it helps block show-through, so you can wear clingy clothes with confidence. Plus, since this foam is thinner than padding, it doesn't add extra bulk.
When stretch foam is ultra-thin, it's called micro-foam. When it's contoured — thinner at the sides and thicker toward the center — it's called graduated foam.
Front-Close Bras or Front-Hook Bras
Most bras fasten in back, usually with hooks and eyes. But front-close bras fasten in front with either hooks or clasps. This allows fast, easy "on / off." Ideal when you're dressing in a hurry. Great for women with arthritis. And perfect with low-cut tops.
Full-Figure Bras (Also see Plus-Size Bras.)
Do you wear a bra size between 38-50C-DD--or larger? Then you'll want a full-figure bra (either underwire or wire-free). Full-figure bras provide greater support than petite or average bras. Often they have wide cushioned straps, foam lining or fiberfill padding, and closures with three or four rows of hooks and eyes. Many full-figure bras are custom-designed for plus-size silhouettes.

Some no-wire bras give light to moderate support, for petite to average figures. Others furnish full support.
Padded Bras
Sometimes you want a little extra boost. That's where padded bras come in. Padded bras have thicker padding than regular stretch-foam bras. Their cups are lined with enough foam or fiberfill to add volume as well as shaping. Many padded bras add up to an entire cup size. So, they're ideal for women who'd like to enhance their assets.
Plus-Size Bras (Also see Full-Figure Bras.)
Do you wear a bra size between 38-50C-DD--or larger? Consider a plus-size bra (either underwire or wire-free). Plus-size bras provide greater support than petite or average bras. Often they have wide cushioned straps, foam lining or fiberfill padding, and closures with three or four rows of hooks and eyes. Many plus-size bras are custom-designed for women with fuller figures.
Push-up Bras
Every woman needs at least one push-up bra. So, go ahead--indulge! Push-up bras make your cleavage look fuller, rounder, and sexier. The cups are cleverly angled to give your curves a boost. Plus, they're usually padded to shape and enhance your bust. Sometimes they have small removable pads--called cookies--for extra volume.
Racer-Back Bras
Racer-back bras have Y-shaped backs that curve in between the shoulder blades. These racing-style backs add extra support plus keep bra straps anchored in place. Many sports bras and even some everyday bras have racer-back designs. Racer-back bras work well under sleeveless tops: The bra straps won't peek out or slide off shoulders.
Santoni® Bras (Also see Seam-Free / Stitch Free Bras.)
Santoni bras are seamless all over, not just in the cups. The only seams appear where the bra straps attach to the bra. Result? Santoni bras feel blissfully soft and look super-smooth under clothes. The secret's the special fabric, knit in one seamless piece on a circular knitting machine. For ultimate comfort, try a Santoni bra made of silky-soft stretch microfiber.
Seamed Bras (Also see Cut-&-Sewn Bras.)
Do you prefer bras that provide extra support? Consider a seamed bra. Seamed bras are highly constructed, with two-section or three-section cups. The cup sections are sewn together (seamed). The more seams, the greater the support. Which means you look and feel better. Choose from both wire-free and underwire styles.
Seamless Bras
Want a smooth no-line look under clothes? Opt for a seamless bra. Seamless bras have cups with no seams, for a sleek modern silhouette. Many seamless bras have clever details designed to add support--such as special linings and hidden under-cup slings.
Seam-Free / Stitch-Free Bras (Also see Santoni® Bras.)
Seam-free bras are seamless all over, not just in the cups. The only seams appear where the bra straps attach to the bra. Result? Seam-free bras feel blissfully soft and look super-smooth under clothes. The secret's the special fabric, knit in one seamless piece on a circular knitting machine. For ultimate comfort, try a seam-free bra made of silky-soft stretch microfiber.
Shelf Bras
Shelf bras provide a light layer of fabric for modesty. Usually they have an elastic bottom band for support. Shelf bras are often sewn inside camisoles and swimsuits.
Soft-Cup Bras (Also see No-Wire Bras and Wire-free Bras.)
Soft-cup have no underwires...which can mean greater comfort. And today many soft-cup bras also offer great support, thanks to clever design details: criss-cross frames; inner under-cup slings; 2-ply, molded, lined, or padded cups. Some soft-cup bras give light to moderate support, for petite to average figures. Others furnish full support.
Sports Bras (Also see Athletic Bras.)
When you move, so does your bust. It's called "bounce." And it can cause discomfort during workouts. Repeated bounce can even damage tissue. The solution? A good sports bra. Sports bras give needed support to help control jarring bounce. Most provide either medium or high motion control, depending on whether they're designed for moderate or intense activity levels. Many sports bras also wick away moisture to keep you cool and dry.
Strapless Bras
If you're wearing a strapless gown, you need a strapless bra — a bra with no shoulder straps. Today's strapless bras stay up better than ever, and also give great support, thanks to design details such as padding, boning, and shaping panels. Many strapless bras come with detachable straps for multiple wearing options.
T-Shirt Bras
Like many knit garments, T-shirts cling. Which means your bra seams (and your nipples) may show through. The solution? A T-shirt bra. T-shirt bras are usually seamless, so they're smooth under clingy clothes. Plus, they're either lined with sleek foam or lightly padded with polyfill, so they block embarrassing show-through.
Tricot Bras
Many full-support bras come in tricot (either nylon or polyester). This finely knit fabric doesn't stretch, so it provides more stable support. Plus, since it's thin and fine, it looks and feels light and sleek. That means tricot bras bring you the best of both: full support plus airy comfort.
Underwire Bras
Underwire bras have flexible wires inside the bottom cups. These wires provide lift and support for a shapely, sag-free look. Usually they're plush-backed or cushion-tipped to help assure no-poke comfort. Most underwire bras offer moderate to full support.
Wire-free Bras (Also see No-Wire Bras and Soft-Cup Bras.)
Wire-free have no underwires...which can mean greater comfort. And today many wire-free bras also offer great support, thanks to clever design details: criss-cross frames; inner under-cup slings; 2-ply, molded, lined, or padded cups. Some wire-free bras give light to moderate support, for petite to average figures. Others furnish full support.
SPORTS BRA GLOSSARY
MCR
Motion Control Rating. MCR evaluates the amount of breast motion ("bounce") involved in physical activities. It gauges the level of support a sports bra must provide in order to control bounce at particular activity levels. High MCR sports bras control bounce during intense activities. Medium MCR sports bras control bounce during more moderate workouts.
DOUBLE DRY® SPORTS BRAS
Double Dry Champion sports bras feature our exclusive Double Dry fabric. Unlike many wicking fabrics, Double Dry has two layers. The inner layer's capillary action quickly wicks moisture to the outer layer, where it cannot re-contact your skin. Result? Ultimate moisture control, for cooler, drier workouts.
SEAMLESS SPORTS BRAS
Seamless Champion sports bras are made with a revolutionary seam-free knitting process. There are no seams, not even side seams, and virtually no stitches. As a result, these sleek-fitting sports bras give you maximum support while reducing painful chafing. Some Champion sports bras combine seam-free styling with Double Dry moisture control, for ultimate support and comfort.
FULL-SUPPORT SPORTS BRAS
Certain Champion sports bras provide comfortable full support for larger-busted women. These bras combine sleek compression fabrics with designs that encapsulate the bust. Result: stable, secure support for C, D, and DD cups. That means full-figured women can participate in high-motion workouts—comfortably—with confidence.
COMPRESSION SPORTS BRAS
Some Champion sports bras are made with compression fabrics. These sleek stretch fabrics hug the breasts closer to the chest wall, for greater support and comfort. Most compression bras boast simple designs—no wires; non-adjustable straps—for faster, easier on / off. So, they're great for active women who put a premium on convenience.
UNDERWIRE SPORTS BRAS
Underwire Champion sports bras have flexible cushioned wires inside the bottom cups. These wires lift and support the breasts, for a shapelier, sag-free look. They also add extra stability to help control jarring bounce.
SPORTS BRAS WITH MOLDED CUPS
Some Champion sports bras have molded cups, designed to conform to your curves. These cups control breast motion ("bounce") without compressing your bust. Result: a sleek, sculpted silhouette with naturally shapely contours
INNERWEAR SPORTS BRAS
Many Champion sports bras are made to go under your clothes. These bras encapsulate the bust, to separate and stabilize the breasts. Result: ultimate support for high-intensity workouts. Often these innerwear bras include thoughtful design details and advanced performance features—such as comfort straps, cushioned underwires, and Double Dry moisture control.
SHAPING SPORTS BRAS
Champion shaping sports bras create naturally contoured curves. Typically they have molded two-ply cups and/or spacer-fabric linings...so they subtly enhance your bust as they shape, support, and define. The result is a truly feminine look that flatters every cup size.
T-BACK & RACER-BACK SPORTS BRAS
Many Champion sports bras have T- or Y-shaped backs, which curve in between the shoulder blades. These racer-style backs add extra support to help control damaging bounce. Plus, they keep bra straps anchored securely in place.
BACK-CLOSE SPORTS BRAS
Many Champion sports bras fasten in back with plush-lined hook-&-eye closures. The advantage? A sleeker, less bulky look in front.
FRONT-CLOSE SPORTS BRAS
Some Champion sports bras fasten in front, usually with plush-lined zippers. The advantage? These bras slip on and off easily—a special boon for full-figured women.
性爱时女人小阴唇的作用
性爱时女人小阴唇的作用
女性性器官的组成部分之一就是阴唇，它们是环绕阴道口的两对唇状组织，靠外而较大的一对是大阴唇，靠内而较小的一对是小阴唇，它们（尤其是小阴唇）除对性刺激十分敏感之外，还对其内邻的尿道口和阴道口具有保护作用。www_sexjk_com
小阴唇是女性外生殖器的一部分，为一对纵长的皮肤粘膜皱襞，位于两侧大阴唇之间。
小阴唇柔软、无皮下脂肪，有丰富的皮脂腺和汗腺，表面湿润、光滑无毛。粘膜下有丰富的神经分布，因此感觉十分敏锐。
小阴唇较薄，其大小和形状因人的不同而存在较大差异。有的并不对称，一边大一边小，这都是正常的。
未婚及已婚末产女性，小阴唇是闭合的，起着保护阴道和内生殖器的作用，是女性自然防御机能的一部分。
小阴唇前端相互融合并分为两叶，前叶包绕阴蒂形成阴蒂包皮，后叶形成阴蒂系带。小阴唇后端与大阴唇后端相汇合，在中线形成一条皱襞，为阴唇系带，分娩时易撕裂。
小阴唇位于大阴唇内侧，也是皮肤皱襞，其上无阴毛生长，表面光滑、细腻，富有弹性，多呈淡红色，湿润似粘膜，有皮脂腺分布其上。皮下有血管、弹性纤维和少量平滑肌，并有丰富的神经分布，感觉很敏锐。小阴唇的形态和大小存在很大的个体差异，有的人小阴唇长得很窄，有的人小阴唇却长得很长，一直垂到大阴唇的外边。有的十分肥厚，有的却很单薄，有的呈不规则伞状；有的像指甲盖那样大，呈典型的半圆形。有的人呈淡红色；有的是棕红色；有的人小阴唇甚至有两种颜色，外侧面呈棕黑色，内侧面为粉红色。一般而论，其颜色随年龄和分娩次数而加深。有些非洲部落的妇女以小阴唇的长度为骄傲，故从小牵拉它，于是成年后的小阴唇又厚又长，高高地突于大阴唇之外，但其大小对性反应并无明显影响。
不论是未经产妇还是经产妇，在她们进入性兴奋期之后，小阴唇都会充血肿胀，其直径都会显著扩张，到平台期时可增加到2—3倍。随着直径的增加，它由保护性的大阴唇屏障中突伸出来，这将使性交时的阴道管的有效长度至少延长1厘米之多，并有助于阴道口的张开。一旦直径增加之后，小阴唇就为其最独特的女性性生理反应（色泽改变）作好了准备。在平台期里，几乎所有妇女的小阴唇都会出现鲜明的颜色反应。未经产妇由粉红向亮红色变化，并沿阴道外口向周围扩散，包括阴蒂包皮在内。
经产妇颜色由亮红色变为深紫红色。作为一个规律，小阴唇的颜色改变越深，盆腔和阴唇的静脉曲张的程度也就越严重。由于平台期颜色改变是如此特殊，故把处于性反应状态的小阴唇称之为“性皮肤”。在绝经期之前的妇女中凡已达到平台期性紧张水平并出现“性皮肤”颜色改变者，都会经历性高潮过程。为支持上述论述，必须假定引起性皮肤颜色改变的特定形式的有效的性刺激持续保持而不发生重大改变（这里提到的性皮肤是特指的，不要与人们平常说的雌性猴、猩猩动情期的皮肤颜色等改变相混淆）。如果撤除有效的性刺激就不能达到高潮期释放，小阴唇的颜色改变也将迅速消退，它的消退比性紧张造成的阴唇直径的增加之消退要快得多。
很明显，性皮肤可以就个体所经历的性紧张程度为临床提供满意的证据，颜色改变与个体对特定的性刺激的反应是成正比的。必须强调性皮肤反应的发生是临床上高潮表现即将来临的征兆。在所有观察到的得到性紧张高潮释放的妇女中，都能证实事先曾发生过性皮肤颜色改变。
在消退期，小阴唇颜色迅速地（10—15秒内）由深或亮红色消退成浅粉色。颜色消失的第二阶段（完全恢复到未刺激状态的色泽）也很快，但远不是那么特别有规律了。在性皮肤经历的这种持续的或继发性的性紧张色泽改变时，消退不一致常导致皮肤外观呈斑点状。
当小阴唇已经出现平台期色泽改变后，其直径至少会增加2倍，这将有助于阴道外口的张开。此外，性皮肤着色不仅预示着强烈的女性性紧张度水平，并且在保持有效的性刺激的情况下成为即将迫近的性欲高潮的临床指征。

But before you give in and throw on that bulky college sweatshirt, check out our guide to dressing for your chest. Whether you want to add some oomph to smaller busts, accentuate what you already have, or minimize what's on top, take a look at some of our great clothing finds for smaller, medium, and fuller chests. These picks will bring out the best of your body and have you loving every inch in no time flat.

Fuller Chests: Emphasize Shape and Cover Up With Class
If you're blessed with an ample bust, there are a few things you can do to create a more elegant look. The point is not to hide your assets but to complement them with fabrics and cuts that won't compete with your body's natural shape.
Goals:
Minimize extra large breasts. Solution: V-necks are the most becoming, as they open up your face and neck, pulling attention upward. Choose a fabric that won't cling too tightly to the chest, like cashmere or another soft knit.
Highlight shape. Solution: Wrap cardigans separate the chest instead of smooshing it into an unflattering shape. The lightweight knit of a cashmere sweater doesn't add extra bulk, and belted styles create a flattering cinching of the waist.
Cover up and still look chic. Solution: A blazer will help to camouflage larger chests and add style to any ensemble. Steer clear of double-breasted jackets, and aim for ones that end near the waist.
Bonus Accessory Tip: Large earrings keep the attention on your face instead of on your chest. Try teardrop-shaped chandelier earrings.
Medium Chests:
Turn it Up, Turn it Down
Women caught in the middle enjoy the best of both worlds. You can play down your chest when necessary, or show the girls off when the mood strikes.
Goals:
Emphasize your assets. Solution: Empire seams are flattering, as they draw attention to your chest. An empire waist tank dress is the perfect party dress, combining sophistication with fun.
Downplay your chest without disguising your femininity. Solution: Try a long scoop-neck cardigan, the perfect way to stay casual without covering your curves. Another option is an oxford shirt. This guy-inspired design probably wouldn't flatter other sizes, but for a gal in the medium range, it's a perfect way to cover up and still look like a woman.
Get some support while experimenting with different necklines. Solution: Lucky you—you've got the chest to fill out a dress, but you don't need serious support. Because you have the luxury of wearing so many styles, a convertible bra will be an asset to your wardrobe. Its convertible powers adjust to fit under anything from a strapless gown to a cute halter top.
Bonus Accessory Tip: Any style will work for you, so you can wear beaded necklaces knotted, layered or long.
Smaller Chests: Optical Enhancement
Just because you don't have double Ds doesn't mean you won't look great in today's fashions. There are plenty of styles you can wear that larger breasted women can't.
Goals:
Highlight your small frame. Solution: Use a halter top to show off your petite structure. The halter dress is perfect: its cut accentuates the shoulders and back, but won't be too revealing.
Create a bustline where there is none. Solution: Seek out pieces with fabric gathering near the chest area, as this adds dimension. Ruffles strategically placed pump up the volume where you need it.
Stay cozy but don't flatten your form. Solution: Opt for chunkier cardigans that will add texture to your outfit better than thinner fabrics.
Bonus Accessory Tip: Long pendant necklaces are perfect for smaller chests, as they will lie flat against your torso. Pendants might get lost on bustier women, but for you they will be perfectly chic.
Wardrobe Malfunctions: Fix 'Em Fast!
We all know even the most flattering pieces don't always behave. In order to prevent potential chest disasters, here are some tricks of the trade that will ensure great coverage and eternal peace of mind.
Problem: Button Gap
Try tape strips to keep your shirts and tops in place. This is an adhesive that comes in various shapes and sizes, so you can put them just about anywhere they're needed. These little guys are also lifesavers for strapless dresses and plunging necklines.
Problem: It's Cold Inside
Silicone gel petals are so practical and discreet, women of every size should own a pair. They prevent embarrassing peek-a-boo moments and lend a general smoothness to your fabulous chest.
