do you wear sleeveless? I can't stand having my floppy arms flying in the breeze looks like I am a pelican about to take off and I can't stand seeing it on other women terrible I know. Why don't they make shirts with longer sleeves than those little quarter length things. Oh well when those terrible storms blew winds 60 mph I thought they were going to catch me and fly me away

ROFL. I don't wear sleeveless because I don't like sticking to myself in the heat.

Better to have floppy arms than no arms - - -

But mine are more flappy than floppy - -

They do make shirts with longer sleeves, they are called 3/4 sleeves.

I have my Grandmother's arms... I don't look good, but I have come to the conclusion that most of the others don't either.
I will only wear shorts at home...but, I will wear a decent tank top....I'm not going to suffer in the heat because someone doesn't want to look at my wiggly arms.

They do make 3/4 sleeves, but very, very few. I will not go sleeveless in public. Shorts only at home alone. I also wish they would make more shirts with sleeves. I have those horrible walmart pictures on my mind.

Neve could understand why women, as much lifting , pushing and pulling and wiping we have had to do for years, don't have tight arms instead of flab! I hate to be sleeveless, even around home!
