: MediaTakeOut.com got its hands on some shocking photos of women who caught infections from wearing unsanitary undergarments. Those of you with weak stomachs shouldn't scroll down any further...
That's not funny MTO, this ish doesn't have *** to do with a dirty *** bra!!! Why would you post some ish like that anyway??? That ish is serious, WTF is that. Somebody do some research please. Is anybody out there a doctor??? MTO since you put this ish out there, the least you can do is tell your readers what the hell that is. Ladies BEWARE!!!!
MTO, YOU SHOULD HAVE EXPLAINED THIS EMAIL. THEY ARE SAYING WASH THE FABRIC, BECAUSE SOMETHING ABOUT A FLESH EATING DIESASE. I HAD THE EMAIL SENT TO ME ABOUT TWO MONTHS AGO. BUT, YOU SHOULD HAVE WARNED PEOPLE BETTER THAN YOU DID, BECAUSE WHEN I GOT THE EMAIL IN THE PAST IT WASN'T ALL BLOWN UP LIKE THIS.
I've heard about this.. Its important to wash your bras and undergarments before you wear them because during transport of bras and other undergarments, parasites are known for nesting their eggs on them. And if you come in contact with these parasites they will begin eating your flesh and your breast will begin to look like the above pictures if you don't get medical attention ASAP!
THIS IS SERIOUS PEOPLE!!!
Here is what I found out:
Necrotizing fasciitis is very rare but serious. Around 30% of those who develop necrotizing fasciitis die from the disease.1
Many people who get necrotizing fasciitis are in good health prior to the infection.2 Those at increased risk of developing the infection are people who:
* Have a weakened immune system or lack the proper antibodies to fight off the infection. * Have chronic health problems such as diabetes, cancer, or liver or kidney disease. * Have cuts or surgical wounds, including episiotomy. * Recently had chickenpox or other viral infections that cause a rash. * Use steroid medications, which can lower the body's resistance to infection.
This comes from more than just wearing a dirty bra!! This is some type of disease that we need to be aware of...MTO instead of making it out to be a dirty bra situation you all need to do some research and let us know what it really is.... Ladies, we all must get in the habit of washing new garments before we wear them if this is the case....
Mto...this has got to be one of the nastiest *** things I've ever cast my eyes upon. You all should have had some type of freakin discression. Goodness! I am traumatized. My eyes are bleeding as we speak. I spit out my *** food and threw up. Good morning to you too..azzholes! And why wouldn't you wash you're bra??? I mean that's like having on the same *** drawers on for days or weeks for that matter. That's just *** nasty. I am done! ***crawling away from my desk cuz I can't see or walk***
wow...that's why I always wash any new clothes that I buy for myself and especially my baby before wearing them, b/c some people try on clothes without any underwear on!...(even though I don't believe that all of that damage came from not washing a bra)...
is it me or does it look like a FINGER (w/ attached nail) is embedded in the woman's breast in the last pic?!!
I saw these pics a while ago. MTO, They are not from wearing dirty bras, well that's not the whole story. What actully happened is those women wore store bought bras and wore them without washing them first. They were made in one of THOSE countries overseas (I think it was China) and traces of a flesh eating bacteria was found on them. There was an email where U.S. women were being warned to wash their bras thoroughly prior to initial use. Unfortunately for the women pictured above, they found out the hard way.
Actually people I have seen worse...there were photos past out a while back about a woman who had tender breast and when she went to the 1st doctor they couldn't find anything. A few weeks later the larva..bugs, worms or whatever the hell they were had to be individually removed with tweezers!!!!! It had my *** hershey's kisses itching all *** day!!!! If you live in the ATL you should have heard that show Ryan Cameron did about a certain POPULAR UNDERGARMENT STORE that takes back undergarments. I'm not sure how true it is..cause I know what *** size draws I wear so I would not have the audacity to return any...but Ryan wouldn't openly broadcast lies like that. So I guess that's Victoria's Secret. Ladies be careful.....I would wash them before I wear them. Sad but true
Yuck! That's why I wasH my *** before I wear them. You don't know where they been(maybe on the floor), so many people touch them, while they are in the store. I know alot of people don't wash their new clothes when they buy them, remember, people try on them clothes everyday and you dont know where they a## been. GREAT WAKE UP CALL(CLAPS)
Mto this story was out a few months ago ,my mother always washed our underwear and pj's before we wore thim to this day i still was my new underwear and pj's. This is serious most of our clothes are made in foreign countries and especially if it's a cheap bra the material can itch your breast so spend your money on good underwear they will last longer and will not irritate you, this is no joke,all those that don't believe beware
Photo shopped, That is a totally disgusting image though. And if that's true with new bras, then what about new panties.
This internet photo/concept about unwashed new bras is the equivalent to the class project where you start with one fact to see how it changes by the time it reaches the 30th person.
I have seen this image, change from site to site- Although it's sanitary to wash new bra's simply because of the dyes, production process, shipping, displaying in stores -people touching, dirt, dust, etc. but infection (let alone of the above extent) is unusual.
Think about the labels inside of new jeans or new bedding, that advises you to wash before wear/use- come on, be honest how many of us really do it? And how many of us have ever had or known of anyone to have be eaten alive because of it!!!
When I was younger, one of my older neighbors used to buy new panties and wear them and even at that age I knew that that was nasty. I've worked at department stores and they would stack the clothes and underwear on the floor so I always put a little bleach in the hot water when I wash new underwear because you never know where they have been.
it didn't happen from wearing the same bra everyday...i heard about this like a year ago...she didn't wash it when she bought it and it had bugs in the bra and once she put it on, the bugs started to eat thru her flesh and her breast became infected....that's why ladies, u should wash all undergarments that u buy before u wear them for the first time...MTO, get ur facts right
@imamannotathug i agree, they blockin out the nipple, and stuff like that's worst then seeing the infection!!!
why isnt there anymore information on here about this infection, why(mto)do you jus assume that that's from new bras?? i wear new bras all the time that i dont wash b4 i wear, and thank God that hasnt happened, where's the source???
Well, sorry to disappoint but this did not happen from wearing a dirty bra..This unfortunate woman has breast cancer..there is nothing remotely funny about this..MTO..as much as I love the trash that you put out..this post was very unnecessary..You really need to start checking your facts..8 out of 10 the pics you post are from perezhilton or some other website and you never check references, spelling or facts..You guys are just waiting on a lawsuit to *** you down.. If anything you should educate your readers..If anything the title should've been this is what happens if you don't get a yearly check up..for women mammography's are very important.. Hope you guys can sleep at ***..better yet..I hope the woman in the pic isn't a fan of your sites..because she will own it. I work in the medical field, mainly radiology..This picture was stolen and if they ever find out..someone's in trouble..
So let me guess... That comes from cancer? Breast Cancer? O.O Ok. Um. Wow. It looks like a *** boil. But whatever it is....New bras. Please. I'd see if they weer bought from the thrift store. if that is an infection, It came from not washing the body. -SHrugs- Either way it goes, That's some horrid ***. Don't know if I could believe it or not.
I saw this stuff on the discovery channel. I ALWAYS wash anything new I buy from the store before wearing them. Last year, I was working in a department store and the women were trying on underwear as well. When we cleaned the store up late at ***, there was always a pile of bras and underwear in the corner and we would have to throw them out. SO WASH EVERYTHING NEW!!!

HOAX!
Flesh-Eating Disease from Unwashed Underwear Emailed images allegedly show examples of flesh-eating disease contracted by women who wore new bras and underwear without washing them first
Description: Email hoax Circulating since: Feb. 2007 Status: False Analysis: See comments
[link to external website removed]
These women are suffering from something else.... it's not from trying on a bra!
****ENTERS THE YOUNG, MED STUDENT WHOSE FIELD JUST HAPPENS TO BE ONCOLOGY****
MEDIA TAKE OUT, I AM ESPECIALLY DISAPPOINTED THAT YOU WOULD SHOW THIS PICTURE, AND CLAIM IT WAS DUE TO NOT WASHING YOUR BRAS. OF ALL THE MOST IGNORANT, CHILDISH THINGS YOU'VE POSTED. THIS IS BY FAR THE WORST. TO SHOW PICTURES LIKE THIS, YOU TAKE ON THE RESPONSIBILITY TO PROPERLY INFORM YOUR AUDIENCE. THIS IS NOT FROM A PARASITIC INFECTION .. IF IT WERE SHE WOULD HAVE SEEN SIGNS SUCH AS A RASH, ETC FIRST ... THIS IS THE END STAGE OF INFLAMMATORY BREAST CANCER. AFTER POSTING PICTURES LIKE THIS, MEDIA TAKE OUT, ITS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO WARN WOMEN THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU FIND A LUMP AND ARE TOO AFRAID TO GO TO YOUR DOCTOR. THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS, WHEN FOR VANITY YOU DO NOT WANT TO COME A MASTECTOMY (PARTIAL OR FULL BREAST REMOVAL)YOU ALL NEED TO IMMEDIATELY REMOVE THIS POST IF YOU ARE NOT GOING TO GIVE THIS THE CORRECT TITLING AND BACKGROUND INFORMATION.
chi1216 Actually that is stage 4 breast carcinoma(breast cancer). That did not come from a bra. I used those same pictures for a graduate presentation that I had to do last year. None the less, you should wash your bra before wearing it anyway.
----
i agree, the 1st individual does look like she's in stage 4 cancer. anybody who has someone die of breast cancer know what i'm talking about. rest in peace ma
@ PRTTYBRWNGIRL
thank you for your honest comments. breast cancer is an awful way to go. you get a real understanding of what it's like to hit rock bottom when you can do nothing but sit there and watch your love one suffer and there is nothing you can do for them but ask the doctor to give them more drugs to send them off into an unconcious state. i pray for any and everyone who has/is going through it or has a love one going through it.
@ PRTTYBRWNGIRL
the worst part is i can smell people who have cancer now. it' like the chemo seeps out of their skin and i can smell it the moment i come around them. instead of making jokes about this woman we should keep her in our prayers. by the look of her cancer i doubt she'll live to see next year. there's no doubt in my mind that her cancer has metastasized.
That looks like a tumor not from an unsanitary bra. MTO, get your facts straight.
People should wash or dry clean ALL new garments before wearing them. You don't know what was in the factory where they were made or who tried them on in the store. After school shopping for my kids, I come home, snip the tags and do laundry.
Fred...Someone from the Cancer Society needs to come up in your office and SLAP ALL THE BLACK OFF OF ALL YOUR A.S.S.S.E.S. I'm sure you're not making fun of the ladies in Africa w/breast cancer. These ladies have breast cancer. It is not CUTE, it is not FUNNY, it is SERIOUS!!!!!, AND, it could happen to anyone, male or female. The the writer who called MRSA (flesh eating), read up on your medical problems....Please. People can live with MRSA, it means that all of the antibiotics that the scientist have developed, do not work, therefor it is resistant..hence the name....methicillin resistant staph aureus. You have it for life, like herpes...but you live. EVERYONE has staph on their skin, sometimes, it gets into your sores/cuts/scrapes, and then it becomes internal. I like this site because alot of the things are funny, but here is a chance for (so called) number one black viewed website to EDUCATE, and they want to CLOWN. The black portion in the last picture is dead tissue. It's called necrotic. If the breast were to heal, it would have to be cut out for the healing tissue below to get air. Flesh eating bacteria HAS TO BE CUT OFF, it will not stop until a surgeon removes the tissue that the virus has not affected (ie - higher or lower (paramenter).Im not trying to judge anyone, please don't send any response telling me not to preach...I'm not, just trying to educate. Still wash all undergarments...If you live in Los Angeles (or anywhere) that sells Victoria Secret, please wash the underwear especially, they let you TRY THEM ON, at the store. Fred...do you *** JOB>..you trying to play journalist, when you could have made this an educational item...LADIES and MEN....do your monthly checks...men...the dingle berries get sick too.
Once again, the a$$holes at MTO deserved to be drop kicked for this foolishness. These are pics of women with advanced cases of breast cancer. Don't believe me? Search the word bra on the Snopes website. They show you these exact same pics and a breakdown of the origins of the myth. There's no flesh eating virus in bras and MTO is ignorant for spreading unfounded rumors. Not to mention, how crass is it to take pictures of another person's life threatening illness and try to pass it off as something else to support some half-a$$ed story? *** it, how are you going to call yourselves journalists posting uneducated ***#it like this? Get it together.
@AshyLBowz and wtflmao.......LMAO!!!!
That's not from a dirty bra.
If that was from wearing a dirty bra more than half the women in the world would have that disease.
MTO should know where to draw the line. If that is some form of cancer or bacteria it *** be posted on MTO !
Stick to entertainment news, not medical news!
in a way i'm happy that mto posted this story. it shows that we don't have enough education in our community on breast cancer and their will be many women from our community who will die needlesly. i really pray pray pray that we take the time and slow down to get our mammograms. it doesn't have to turn out like this if it's caught early. in fact you may even be invited to join in studies if it runs in your family. i was invited to take part of one at johns hopkins which should determing if i carry a gene that is sometimes identified with breast cancer. if i do carry the gene i have already decided that i will have my breasts removed. call me paronoid but after seeing my grandmother, aunt, and mother die from breast cancer i don't want to take the risk. it is an extremely painful way to go.
That's disgusting...but I think most of you are missing the point of what is being said. These bras were new, so you'd think that they would be clean. What they are saying is to WASH NEW UNDERGARMENTS before wearing them for the first time. They weren't saying that this came from women wearing the SAME UNWASHED BRA day after day.
We don't actually know what happened to these ladies' breasts but they look like they came in contact with something highly acidic!
ok,this is why i don't try on clothes in the store........many people be done tried on the *** before u buy it,not to mention most come from over seas.we may not know WHAT happened,but i do know this is why i do a full body inspection every morning and ***.who know what u can contract just going outside........or bringing in your house
In my professional opinion, i would say that this is advanced and untreated invasive ductal carinoma (IDC). But you go on being silly negros about this. Breast cancer is the #1 killer of black woman in the US. The # 2 killer of women in general. The CDC estimates that 46,000 women will die this year from this disease (about 360/day). If you are a women of 25 and older you should be check annually. If you have a family history of breast cancer you may want to seriously consider getting a masectomy as you have anywhere from a 25-80% chance of getting breast cancer.
Ok MTO, your known for entertainment news, this s*** is far from entertaining. I refuse to believe that this is from some bra. What fool would let it get that far before seeing a dr.? once i woulda saw a unfamilar dot, i woulda been at the hospital getting treated before my tit just exploded!! You can only get a rash from a unwashed bra not a d**n disease!!!! Please stick to ur day job.
Actually, you should wash EVERYTHING before you wear it! Many posts have stated the obvious that the pics are highly similar to those of a cancer patient (I say it like that because in all actuality, even if we were all doctors, we could not diagnose anyone from a picture). Cancer is an extremely serious and important issue that is not to be laughed at or viewed as something to 'amuse' 'readers'. Cancer affects both men and women is one of the top leading causes of death. There are a variety of reasons why a person would let their body deteriorate to this stage; topping the list could be THEY HAVE NO HEALTH INSURANCE. This website is not a health site and the 'article' gives no valid explanation nor quotes any valid sources. The pictures are not credited either. I hope that readers of this site remember you are dealing with 'entertainment' and not true serious issues.
This story looks as if it is related to a story i read before. Our undergarments are made from other parts of the world. After being created, the garments sit in boxes before being shipped to usa. Sometimes worms and other flesh eating bacteria enter into these boxes and become imbedded in these garments. We receive them and wear them without washing. These pics are probably from extreme cases. Parasites sometimes will burrow deep into the flesh and begin to eat away at the tissue layers from inside out. That's why these pics look so disgusting and appear to happen over a long time.
OH LORD...PLEASE HAVE MERCY ON THIS WOMAN AND DO ALL U CAN FOR THIS WOMAN IN THIS PIC..*** MTO YOU GOT ME DOING BREAST EXAMINATIONS ON MYSELF..***!I WANNA SAY THAT LOOKS LIKE IMPLANTS GOT INFECTED IN HER BREAST TISSUE BUT I WOULD HAVE TO RULE THAT OUT..LOOKS LIKE SOMEONE *** HER IN HER BREAST...BUT IF ITS SOME KIND OF DISEASE ..I *** SURE DONT WANNA KNOW ABOUT IT..PLEASE GET THE WOMAN SOME HELP...***!
Umm these pics are cancer pics b4 surgery and after chemo. This is not funny and i guess it was meant to be a joke, but its not. At least yall know why people are fighting so hard to end cancer.
While your at it show us some abortion pics so chix can stop thinking that abortion is a "choice" rather than plain old institutionalized "murder"
My father is a doctor and he's shown me pictures that were quite similar to these. While it's true that it could be a flesh eating disease, I'd say that's highly unlikely. It actually looks like breast cancer caught too late. My dad said you would be surprised how many people refuse to submit to losing their breast in surgery rather than let it get to this point. Of course, by this point, it has also spread to other areas as well. Not sure why MTO is telling people it's a flesh eating bacteria caused by not washing bras.
