Frankly I was disappointed that there are no pics of pigeons wearing Maiden Form bras.

Fun fact: Pigeon chicks are actually called “squeakers”

No. They are called squabs.

Not mutually exclusive. They are both terms used to describe Pigeon chicks. Squab refers to an earlier phase of development. They progress into squeakers.

Squab refers to pigeon as a meat source, in the same way that beef refers to cow as a meat source.

Interesting. I did not know that. Maybe harkens back to the days of Pigeon pie?! 🐦🥧

I can attest I was a squeaker who hit puberty and then squabbed.

Yeah I feel like if you write an article titled "Back When Pigeons Wore Bras" and don't include a single image of a busty pigeon, you should get your writer license suspended for at least a year.

This sounds like an overused Reddit joke, but there's a pigeon wearing a vest/bra right under the semi-naked woman right at the top of the article.

(I missed it too at first.)

This comment told me everything I needed to know. I'll see myself out

Yeah well it is because if you see the pigeon you realize it isn't a bra but a vest or a corset.

I’m more surprised there’s no bras, wearing pigeons like the title suggests.
