Bras bad for boobs -- it's science Empty Bras bad for boobs -- it's science

Here's hoping for a new wave of bra-burning!

For generations, women have been advised that wearing a bra would keep breasts from sagging, prevent back pain and improve posture.

Wrong, wrong and wrong, according to a study conducted by Jean-Denis Rouillon, a sports medicine specialist from the Centre Hospitalier Universitaire in Besancon, France.

"Medically, physiologically, anatomically — breasts gain no benefit from being denied gravity," Rouillon said, as quoted on TheLocal.fr. "On the contrary, they get saggier with a bra."

@veya -- I don't think anything beats gravity in the long run. Seems the study is just saying bras promote sagging ...

@dwg -- I had a girlfriend who used to always go topless when we were alone; do I lose my man card if I admit that it got old after a while?

@Ben
Some of the Papuan Girls are only in their 20's and are much more gravity affected then Aussie chicks that age. Might be in the genes but I still think its the bras.

Either way I'll put my hand up to contiune this much needed Scientific study cheers

At last... I've been saying this for years - often seeing women in the street and asking them to take the gravity challenge.

Ah, I guess that study was done by a man and his next paper will be: "Men's hands are best for Boobage support and this needs to be done daily"

Actually another woman's hands are fine, particularly with male supervision of said support jocolor

I know, I know, I know. I know. I meant to express my slight skepticism at the convenience of this finding for (straight) men in my title for the topic:
