Why You Can and Should Go Braless

[ginny_weasley]

Reasons you should go braless more often:

Science says it's better for you in terms of perkiness

Bras are ridiculously expensive

Bras are uncomfortable

More clothing is being designed where going braless is the entire point

If you have big boobs, going braless is doable but will take more effort, and of course you won't know if you can go braless if you don't try.

My decision to go braless more often is a comfort thing. I recently got sized, professionally (or rather "professionally" to be accurate) and if you have ever seen the first Pirates of Caribbean movie, you know what I am talking about when I say I feel like Elizabeth at the beginning of the movie whenever I wear any of the bras the sales lady said was my size.

Yes this scene right here.

When I am wearing the bras the sizing lady gave me, I can't even take a full breath, a half breath at most. And I can never wear the bras she gave me for more than a few hours. The sizing lady emphasized wearing bras that fit very, very snug. I know bras are supposed to be snug against your rib cage, but if I can't take a full breath that's a problem. Especially since I can take a full breath when I am wearing a corset. A freaking corset. The sizing lady is probably an idiot and there is a chance I was wearing the right size before she "sized" me. I should've never agreed to getting sized because she threw away the bra I was wearing when I went into the store. That was the only bra I could take a full breath in.

The first step to going braless and feeling confident about it, is to accept your boobs for what they are. Society has warped our ideas of boobs and I am glad that shows like Game of Thrones are setting the record straight for what boobs actually look like. And of course the lack of sex education at least in America does not help. Seriously NO ONE has comic book boobs at least not naturally. I am getting back pain just by looking at this picture.

If people stare at you, stare back. Your nipples might show time to time. It shouldn't be a big shock to people that women have nipples or that some women don't like bras. Just say YOLO and go on your merry, braless way. But if you are worried about your nipples showing, pasties made of silicone, paper, or cloth will help. If you are wearing a more sexy garment, clothing tape will help.

Bralettes are great to wear in place of a bra. While you're not technically 100% braless, you're close. A bralette is a step above going braless but a step below a sports bra. It basically works like this: Bra--sports bra--bralette--braless.

Tank tops with a built in shelf are good to wear if you don't have a bralette (but if you feel up to it, you can sew a bralette yourself) since they are cheap and available at almost all clothing stores.

Form fitting clothing will help. The tighter the clothing is, the less likely your boobs will move.

Plus there are dresses and shirts designed like this where it will look weird if you did wear a bra.

If you want to wear a normal shirt but are worried about your nipples showing, then just wear a scarf or a jean jacket over your shirt. If you have big boobs but want to go braless, wearing layers is helpful. This outfit is definitely doable all you have to wear underneath is a bralette or a tank top with built in shelf.

Of course you can't always go braless, like if you are wearing a white T-shirt, where in this case going braless wouldn't be the best idea.

Both of my exes absolutely hated being told they should not wear a bra... They were both well endowed and simple things always hurt them with out one. Hell one even slept with a bra on. I get it that going bra-less is cool and such, and I am not saying this is you, but I know my exes always told me that girls that do go bra-less almost always feel entitled to push others to do the same, and feel that girls that do wear bras, hurt their movement or make them look bad.

[aWes0MeNeSs]

There's only been one girl who has told me to do it, because apparently it "damages your body", but I shrugged her off. I'm pretty sure if it was that bad for you that many women would've stopped wearing them decades ago. Personally, I've never had discomfort with the right bras, and they actually help my posture since I am rather large chested.

[ginny_weasley]

I wouldn't try to force someone to not wear a bra. But sleeping with a bra on has to proven to be really bad for you. A hundred and something years ago, corsets were the rage and people thought they were good for you we all know how wrong we were about that.

[zombiebabe]

i hate bras... good take

Similarly my girlfriend's mercy she don't wear it all wrong with this job and duty and she was the bra but half cup bra with the white shirt uniform to that it's only and also official release you wear or otherwise don't go to the park and she loves it without having bra

[LittleSally]

For me: no bra > a problem. o. O

[GuysGuy]

Do not understand the big deal with going braless. Even WITH just a basic tee or tank.

It's beautiful, natural, and super feminine.

I mean really, take a good look around next time in a shopping mall... most mannequins display the clothing braless. Gorgeously. And it's pretty blatant. Visible pokie nipples all over the place even under basic tees and graphic tanks. Nobody batting an eye or getting all offended at that!

Nevermind the well-documented health benefits of it, the 'taboo' over it is crazy hypocritical and really quite ridiculous. To me, girls that have a big mental offence hangup with themselves and/or with other girls going braless (topless too come to think of it), or being the least bit embarrassed about their nipples at all in general, is a huge sign of immaturity and a big turn-off.

Just like fuller lips and rounder hips, boobs with nips are just what girls have. They're an incredibly beautiful part of non-sexual female anatomy. I say go for it. Embrace your femininity with confidence always.

Couldn't agree with you more, when I get home I rid myself of that horrid undergarment as quickly as humanly possible. Rarely if ever wear one at home, I do have a couple of cute little bralettes and love those shelf bra tops. I'll venture out in public without a bra as often as I can get away with it. I count my blessings that I got the small boobie option when they ordered my bod! I love being a small little B-cup, with the right top they still turn heads!! My guy compliments me on my cute little breasts all the time. There are guys out there who just adore a sporty compact female body!! #NoFakes

[Hidden_P]

I hate wearing a bra, it's the first thing I take off when I get home. But I cannot leave the house without a bra.

You talk about bigger boobs and the like but I don't think you really know.

My profile picture was taken back when I had DD breasts.

I'm now an E-G.

It it VERY obvious at that size if you don't wear one. Simply walking causes them to bounce a lot. The only way to hide it is to wear a tent which isn't partly sexy feeling.

While I agree, I have to disagree with some of this. Seeing your comments you clearly aren't as large as I am and I would say at a 42E I qualify for "larger"

[Relentless_Hippie]

I can understand for women with smaller boobs but for busty gals it's sometimes uncomfortable not wearing a bra, especially if you have to move around a lot or bend over etc.

I tried not wearing one just last week with an outfit my brother purchased me. I love the outfit but was so self conscious. It seems like a lot of clothes are made for smaller sized women because I kept spilling out of the sides, plus my boobs pushes the fabric out and side boob was showing all day long. I had to keep my arms at my side all day so I wouldn't be exposed. >_<

[Blonde401]

I prefer not to wear a bra as much as I can. I'll take it off as soon as I get inside my house, they just annoy me. My mother reckons it's not good for me and that I'll end up with sagging boobs but I don't know. And I have D's, whatever. Life's too short to be uncomfortable all the time!

[biguyct]

I agree, maybe its good if your running only

[Blonde401]

@biguyct oh yeah if I'm doing anything athletic I wear a sports bra

[biguyct]

thats perfect then!

[soe11]

I agree with you

My girlfriend and her mom did not wear at home bra at all, only Thong or Sexy attractive floss string.

[Righttobeararms83]

Im all for it the wife though claims that if she didn't wear a bra she'd gey black eyes going down the stairs lol.
Though haven't women always used historically something to bind theit boobs up like bras were invented for women at the request of women it wasn't a conspiracy by the illuminati to gain control over women's breasts and the power they hold.
As for perkiness I'd post a national graphic picture of a topless woman but it would be taken down. More power to you if thats what you decide. Going topless is the next step, the wife said it was liberating in Spain but refuses to go topless in America lol.

[aceleon]

yeah yeah this woman should wear what they want shit again

alright wearing pants sucks too so would you be okay if i went out showing you my D

enough with the i will wear what i want to wear crap, if you wear that guys will look at them you can be not disturbed by it but only guy who will actually date you is a brainwashed cuck the rest will just be horny dogs oh but perhaps thats what you want in the first place, then you will have to accept being called a slut

if you are okay with all of that by all means goeven topless if you please i will just feel sorry for the guy who raised you (if there is any) or a potential male sibling/cousing who has to think you as a relative.

[modeve]

Most of the time I go braless. It is very comfortable and relaxing. Though I take risk of my boobs being de-shape, but care can (and does) protect. Generally I don't like wearing bra all the time, only when very thin clothes are on, and I am in office or any other public place.

[W31rd0]

Here in the Midwest, there are only 2 seasons -- winter and summer. During the winter months, which is most of the year, I don't wear a bra. During the summer months, which are June, July, and August, I wear a bra. So, I wear a bra 3 months out of 12, or 1/4 times a year.

[Nerdvana]

Hi, just curious. Why do you wear one during the summer and not the winter?

[W31rd0]

@Nerdvana Because I have layers and layers of clothing during the winter months.

[Nerdvana]

Ok. Makes sense. Thanks

[LittleMissCuriousity]

Thank you! I was recently resized as a 40DD/DDD (by a competent salesperson) and as comfortable as my new bras are, they're costly. I go braless as often as possible, but still feel the need to wear one when I go to school (stairs are the enemy). I'm hoping to transition from my underbust corsets to overbust corsets, and I think that will be a step in the right direction.

[JRICHARDS1996]

Do what thou wilt

Breasts are completely non sexual to me anyway so I've never understood the puritanical aversion to them. But then again, I'm the same guy who wants a footjob so maybe I'm not the best person to ask.

[HandsomeRaj]

YOU young lady, are next to my heart <3 AWESOME take :)

But again there is always a flip side to every coin - nature's law (even gods aren't above nature)

[HandsomeRaj]

Thank you for liking my opinion young lady :) <3

[2tall2handle]

You did answer my question about the nipples showing with pasties. I had wondered how you were going to overcome that part or even if you were. Personally if you want to go bra-less more power to you. I think clothing designers should make tops that work in your favor instead of you having to layer up to cover up your nipples or cleavage. It should be easier for you, and less expensive.

[SirenDep]

Where do you buy those pasties from? I haven't seen any of those in lingerie stores

[ginny_weasley]

www.amazon.com/.../B00428ZHRC
They're on Amazon for less than four dollars

[g_a_r_b_i_t_a]

The bras also don't work properly. I remember wearing a bra and a tank and then a half sleeved top, so 3 layers. I was in college, didn't notice much but then while talking to a friend she told me to dress up properly, didn't elaborate much. At first I thought it was my dressing style but then on the way home in a metro I saw two or four people staring at me, mostly guys. I was confused. I got home and saw that my nipples were perked up and visible through the top. They must have thought I was braless and thus also characterless. I stopped wearing tops and opted for loose clothing instead.

[vonasaurus]

i call them "medieval torture devices" and never wear them around my house, even though my bras fit as comfortably as medieval torture devices can. lol.

(i'm only a small b, but still)

[OrdinaryGentleman]

Ill have to get rid of my wonder bra collection now. SMH no more roaming the streets.

[ginny_weasley]

Hahaha at least you have a good sense of humor about this take.

[OrdinaryGentleman]

Lol thanks, women should be able to not wear bras i don't know why its a bad thing to see titties, its not some mystical land or special place. Its tits, let em droop

[maurkay]

Am I the only one who finds bras comfortable? I'm an A-cup, so I'm perky regardless.

[ginny_weasley]

I might've been sized wrong but I remember when I thought bras were comfortable. The new bras the sizing lady gave me, I literally can't breath in.

[maurkay]

I haven't even been sized, lol. I have a 34A bra that's already too big for me, the 32A one I have fits way better so I just assumed I'm a 32A.

[Tomboy_Cool]

Im already living the dream. 🙌🏼
