yes i know. but mine arent the TRADITIONAL corsets with boning or metal rods going up and down. in place of those hard things, there are strips of flexible plasticy material. so its wayyyy more comfy. like, some under-wire bras have metal, and some have comfy plastic, its kind of like that…and if u get the right size (ex. not one 2 sizes too small) then they are very comfortable to wear.
