I am a female in the army current on rotation over seas. I was just told by my team leader that my platoon Sgt (female) told him that I need to start wearing a bra while off duty. in the clothes that I wear, you can't see my nipple or even the color of my nipple nor do I wear revealing or low cut shirts. At the most, you can just see that I am simply not wearing one. Nowhere in any reg does it say it’s required not even in uniform. Can she tell me to do so?

Not sure if this may help. When I was an EOA in the US Army, May had a similar situation. A female instructor had told a female soldier that she needed to do the same as what you have been instructed. She was told this because she was even by the instructor while on post. The instructor cited polices such as good order and discipline. This was upheld because she was on post. However if she had been off post, then they would have had to look at the off post dress policy. Like you have been told here on RP, you need to check with the local policy for the installation that you are stationed in. Hope this helps.

I guess I now understand "triggered". The one thing I fucking HATED about the USAF was that you were governed by the sometimes capricious whim of another person, and that whim has the force of law. Get in a Jesus freak boss, and your performance reports suffer if you aren't bowing your head during his BS little prayer thing when he starts the meetings. Seen it happen, no shit. Commander said he would "take note of those disrespecting his religion" and so he did. No separation of Church and State in that arena. I can just imagine females allowed to fuck with other female's dress and apparel off duty and it doesn't seem pleasant to be the junior female. Especially since your platoon Sgt can fuck with you by remote control using the team leader as a waldo and cutout.

The over riding thing you have to remember is that once we sign our contract we are property of the military. They give us a lot of leeway but they tell us how we live our lives, specially when we are active.

This may sound sexist but I had a young trooper that looked great braless in a T-shirt. She was a free spirit back in the day. Before you get on my case I remember the "Torpedo Teats" from the old movies. Natural looks are nice and stimulating to us old males. lol

Well this response will upset the snowflakes, REMF's, boot lickers and such. My question for the curious supervisor would be why are you so occupied, concerned, even looking at, my chest. Just be sure you have a pocket voice recorder. Just because he has the problem does not make it your problem. Have fun. Tell him your nipples get sore when you wear one and watch his face. Then ask for a transfer because he looks at your chest and comments on it. (Which he does.) And always remember, a little power attached to a little mind is dangerous. Good luck. I came in during the bra burning times of the 70's and never complained..........:)

It's probably easier to wear a bra to avoid conflict (my personal opinion)
