Threat of Iran’s attack, whether to wear bra at night or not… Israeli women are in a dilemma

The fear of Iran’s attack is prevalent among Israeli citizens these days. People are thinking day and night about the time they may have to face in the future. Iran has threatened that it will take revenge for the death of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh in a way that Israel will remember for generations. In such a situation, many Israelis are worried about US military support. However, in the meantime, many Israeli women are in a different kind of trouble. They wonder: should they wear a bra while sleeping?

What is the problem of Israeli women

For those who have not had the experience of immediately running to the bomb shelter when the siren sounds about enemy missiles or rockets, it is important to understand that in Israel, you have between 90-15 seconds to reach a safe place. It depends on where you live. In such a situation, there is not much time to make yourself look presentable. Most women wear loose clothes at night. In such a situation, it can be difficult to prepare yourself well and get out of the house to a safe place during an attack.

For women who are facing difficulties

Some Israelis have a safe room in their apartment, so this is not an issue for them, but those living in older buildings have to run to the bomb shelter of the community building or hide in the stairwell. In these cases, you are face to face with all your neighbors, and you probably do not want to deal with all this with people you see in front of you every day.

Debate sparked on Israeli social media

This topic has been discussed a lot on social media, with Israeli women being of great interest. A recent report by Keshet 12 News about Israeli preparations for war referenced a Facebook debate in which a Tel Aviv woman posted a picture of Israeli army (IDF) spokesman Daniel Hagri, writing, “Full briefing by IDF spokesman and he did not say the most important thing: Yes bra or no bra?” Dozens of people responded to it, most of whom shared similar anti-bra sentiments. One of them wrote, “If I’m going to die, I’ll die the way I was born.”

People in support of women

In another Tel Aviv Facebook group, after the murder of Ismail Haniya, a post titled “Women, put on your bras” drew similar responses, “I will not wear a bra for a man; I will walk up the stairs in my Felix the Cat pajamas.” Another user commented that she had a lot of bras that she saved for “festive occasions” and offered to give them to women. Another user wrote that she had a safe room in her apartment and offered it to her female Facebook friends, saying.
