I like oysters, but like... 4 per week is fine. If it was staple food for me, I'd cry myself asleep every night.

I'm going to refer to lakes as "cosmic ray sterilization basins" from now on.
Every matter/antimatter reaction will be mixed 1:1 eventually.
Likewise, I'm enjoying it quite a bit
Well, if Russia wasn't a criminal kleptocratic war criminal state, they could just swap their excess rupee for yuan.

A little late-80s perspective: when I was growing up, "gay" was an insult we'd call eachother jokingly. Nobody "was gay" because that's a (light, funny) slur. Hell, it wasn't till I was 28 I realized it didn't "have a dating-girls phase" that I never grew out of, I was just bi.
The homophobia is still pretty deeply ingrained even in people who aren't that old and are really trying. I can only imagine how bad it is for those who aren't and don't.
You know who you are.
Isn't it most of them? (but probably Hungary most)
Several decades, in fact

Buying armor is like buying a suit, and all the answers are kind of similar.
You can get a cheap mass produced one, but it won't fit as well as a tailored one, and that won't be as good as a custom made one. You can wear someone else's (within reason), as long as they're mostly the same size, but it won't be great.
A gambeson or arming coat (typo before) is similar, off the rack is fine, but it'll fit much better if you have it custom made. And like bras, being a woman is expensive here. I bought a good one and modified it myself.
I got my armor custom made by a guy in Ukraine like 15 years ago, the whole thing was 6000 euros which was a huge bargain. But if you just want a breastplate for occasional use (larp, cosplay, etc) getting one online and accepting it's kinda awkward is very much an option. If you need it to actually stop swords (reenactment, HEMA) that's still an option, but you'll need to be much more selective.
Friendly reminder that cows are one of the five most lethal mammals (mostly due to there being LOTs of cows, but meh)
