I hate wearing bras. I wear them as little as possible. My boobs are very perky so I don’t feel the need to wear them. I wear a lot of tank tops which can be worn without a bra. I do this very often and sometimes I don’t wear a bra when I see my guy friends. My brother thinks that I shouldn’t be doing that and that I should wear a bra whenever I guy is around. I just don’t see the need too. What do you think?

I don't know when modesty became the reason to wear a bra.
From the corsets of the 1800s, to the 1907 "brassiere"(the top half of split corsets, to the first bra cups in 1932, to 1950s "bullet bras", to pushup bras in the 1960s, bras were intended to enhance breasts, not conceal them.
The absurdity of "training bras" for pre-teens and girls entering puberty was first marketed during the 1950s.
Of course, bras can provide support to well endowed women. And they can minimize uncomfortable jostling when women engage in physical activities.
Bras are great for women who feel more comfortable wearing them. But somehow, people got sold on bras as mandatory attire.
I don't understand what is obscene about the natural shape of women's breasts. And to make a big deal over the sight of nipple points? People are crazy.
When I started high school in the fall of 1969, some girls were defying school dress codes by refusing to wear bras as a protest against sexism and in support of the "women's lib" movement. The school finally gave in and changed the dress code.
For the life of me, I don't know why a woman needs to wear a bra beneath clothing if she feels more comfortable not wearing one. Yes, there are perverts who act like they've never seen boobs before. And prudes get the vapors if they catch sight of boob jiggle or a nipple bump. But those people are immature and up tight.
Anyway, I'm with you. If you don't want to wear a bra, don't. Do what makes you comfortable. It's none of your brother's business. And good on you if going braless brings a bit of cheer into guy's lives. There's no harm in that.
Boobs are charming. Women should celebrate them instead of hiding them beneath armor.50 Reply

Anonymous(45 Plus)+1 yWell let’s see. I’d say a couple things have to be in order for it to really matter to men. Mainly if you’re hot, cute, sexy, etc. Men are going to love it, even your male friends. If you’re not so attractive maybe one or two may get turned on by it but most of them won’t. To a man what counts is seeing nips, not side boob or front boob, but the tit itself so if your nips are hard and you’re cute! Definitely hot. Also depends on how big of a shirt you wear. A little snug or loose. That is completely up to you. I think maybe he feels a little embarrassed at times, also maybe he feels as that’s not how women should dress. It could be his instinct to protect you as well if men are looking at you sexually.

+1 yI'm on the same with you. They are super uncomfortable I only wear a bra if I absolutely have to. Shit I went to my doctors appointment without a bra on this morning. Personally I think if he had to wear a bra he wouldn't want to wear one either. And an example for the men. Hers what it would be like so let's say you had to wear a super tight jock strap all day long everyday what would you do? Would you go without it? I'm being sarcastic but i am kinda curious. Haha

If I had to wear a super-tight jock strap, I guess that would mean I was freakishly large down there. Which, I mean I would be proud of that, but it would probably be really inconvenient as well. I probably wouldn't be able to wear shorts. And I'm sure I'd be relieved when I got home at the end of a long day, and was able to go jockless.

1 yI will think that the girl is a cheap h0e :D you know that it will draw a lot of attention so you are doing it on purpose. At the club i always had 10000% chance to fck girls with no bra.. they are dressing up that way to tell you that they are at the club looking for casual sex.. but i'm from Europe maybe i'ts different in your country. But for most mens around the world , they way you dress is a clear signal what to expect from you.. miniskirt, no bra, .. you will probably not read the bible with that girl :D..

+1 yYea you do you "free the nip" if that's what you're comfortable with.
I mean honestly.. I don't even see the big fuss over boobs and besides.. the only part they say needs to be covered is the nipple.. ironicly the only part that a guy has of his own... Yet breast tissue.. guys don't have but women can and do leave it out on display (literally) how the hell is this even a thing lol it just seems so backwards to me.
Also only reason there is sexual desire/tension or arousal over a females chest is because society made it law they must be covered up and only shown to a special someone. If women everywhere all walked with them out when they want they would be viewed no different to a arm or elbow, also there would be no judgement) Shaming over breast feeding a child in public and so on so on.
Anyway.. that's my.02c20 Reply741 opinions shared on Girl's Behavior topic. Subconsciously you're probably doing it to get attention. That's not a crime but don't try and turn it into some kind of neutral thing. Maybe your brother doesn't want you to seem desperate for attention or to attract attention from guys who are less likely to treat you well. Just a guess. I personally never cared if a woman wore a bra or not.

+1 yIt's your body and your choice. So long as your top is not transparent, there is nothing wrong with not wearing a bra. Tell your brother to check the history books. Bras were only invented 150 years ago. Before that, women didn't wear bras, and that was perfectly acceptable.

+1 yI don't think it's really appropriate to be like that in front of guys. But if you don't care that they can see your nipples poking out then I suppose it's fine. Personally I would be weirded out if a girl I was friends with didn't wear a bra in front of me.

+1 yYou should probably not go completely topless in public or around people you don't trust.
But if you're wearing some top or shirt or something that you are comfortable in and don't need a bra or want to use a bra. Then I think that is fine.
Also if you don't need bras then you are probably saving some money (unless you buy them and don't use them) so that's a plus I guess.

Secondly if they’re big. And you don’t wear the bra, eventually they will become saggy due to lack of support03 Reply- +1 y

If that’s the case and you wear a white shirt then yeah, lol everyone will notice you don’t have a bra on.
Us guys have a keen eye on spotting a braless woman. Well, those that have had experience - +1 y
Ah, as I was with the second point. I figured that happens due to the lack of support where eventually due to gravity they drop
I mean, I personally enjoy it when women don’t wear bras! Lol!
In all honesty though, ladies, if you decide not to wear one, most of us guys understand and have heard how uncomfortable they can be. Why your brother is complaining about it is beyond me. Unless you’re showing a ton of flesh near the point of showing a nipple, he just needs to get over it.00 Reply
+1 yI understand if it's not comfortable, but it would also be a tad distracting. Especially for someone like me who's trying not to lust after girls. Then again, I am not one with too many female friends, but had I one who did it I might bring it up.

You do realise lust is lust regardless of relationship status? Our biologies do not consider what we call ourselves.

I get that if you are attracted to someone but surely you have self control?
- +1 y
It's not about not being able to restrain myself from jumping a girl but it'd contribute to unwanted feelings and I would be quite distracted when hanging out, and it'd surely, at least in my case, make me wank later on. And many men today are trying hard to not fall into masturbation addiction because it is quite rampant. But I suppose it'd depend on just how visible your boobs and nipples are.
It is ur body and ur choice. Do not et ur brother dictate what you should wear or not wear. I have had many girlfriends and friends that are girls that do or did not wear a bar because of comfort or even the hot weather. And as you probably know most guys like it when a girl does not wear one but either way do what feels comfortable and do not let others tell u what to do

It depends on the setting obviously, but if it’s just a chill hangout I wouldn’t care. Of course they’ll notice but if you’re just friends it shouldn’t make a difference

11 Reply- +1 y
I wanted to reword my opinion so here it is.
It's completely fine. I've always thought the invention of the bra was strange. Funny thing is, the concept of a bra has only been around about 100 years. In 1914, the first modern bra was patented by New York publisher, activist, and socialite Caresse Crosby (born Mary Phelps Jacob). Frustrated with a whale bone corset that kept popping through a new party dress, she created the bra from two handkerchiefs and some ribbon to create cleavage.
It's more natural to be without a bra and people that say that it's not normal to not wear a bra are sadly sheep of society that don't think for themselves. Yes your nipples will protrude and show especially if you have perky boobs, but that's normal and is the natural shape of your body. It wasn't as sexualized in the past as it is now because everyone covers it up today.
Honestly just do you and ignore the sheep.

As for as being around guys, to be honest, I don’t see an issue unless one of the guys makes some inappropriate comment. Your brother is just thinking about what some guys might think and wants to help you avoid that. He is just being a brother….
