A survey of women bra-users finds some 27% see no need to wear one outside, whilst 44% regard pink bras as even sexier than black ones, and washboard lovers distressed by the inflating cup sizes enjoyed by Japanese women will be pleased to know 20% of the female population is still A-cup…
The survey of 10,342 Japanese women was conducted by top Japanese underwear maker Wacoal.
When asked where they would feel comfortable going bra-less, of the six choices – going out for a walk, popping out on a bicycle, going off on the train, going anywhere, never going out without a bra and never going bra-less even at home – 27% responded they would be happy going off no-bra.
Breast-size also played a role – 31.9% of A-cup women were happy to go out without a bra, compared to only 20.2% of E-cup women.
Problems with fit likely also contributed, with 83.7% of women reporting some kind of discomfort experienced as a result of wearing a bra.
The actual breakdown of cup-sizes reported (although given the above fact just how well these women know their own sizing is something to ponder):
AA/A – 19%
B – 28%
C – 25%
D – 15%
E – 7%
F+ – 5%
Aside from reasons of comfort or aesthetic considerations, there is some doubt as to whether there is any pressing medical reason to wear a bra – the notion that a bra has any positive impact on sagging is not supported by any proper medical research, though of course it is supported by underwear manufacturers (Wacoal accuses bra-less women of “lacking bust-care awareness”), and 43.1% of the women surveyed believed it as well.
The survey also quizzed women on what colours they regarded as best for their “victory bra” – pink came first with 43.7%, followed by black with 39.8%, perhaps explaining something about the nation’s low birthrate.

FIRST, yeah i'm a fag for sayin' that. Hehe.
Damn. I kept titling my head at the OP before realising it.
Lol
Yoshii-kun, even you do that you'll go nowhere
*doin' same thing too
They're a waste of money for small women. Fat men with large 'breasts' don't need them, they might as well be flushing their money down a toilet. I imagine it could be quite uncomfortable for women with large breasts to just let them hang and swing everywhere 24/7, however.
Interesting survey.
But they don't need 'exhaustive' medical research, you only need to look at any people/culture that live in places where clothes let alone bras are not vital such as the more primtive lifestyles still out there to see what happens to a female that shuns wearing a bra.
Granted everything sags in time. But it need not sag sooner than required.
Myself, I'd be just fine if women went braless, as by the time they are old enough to need to care about their appearances, they should be done with needing to attract a mate anyway.
The only women in need of worry, are those with LARGE breasts. And that isn't about appearance, but comfort. Not to mention back pain.
I'd be ok if women went pantieless too of course. But I'd rather they had skirts on just the same.
"primitive cultures" women as you suggest don't have sagging breasts due to lack of bras, but because of using their breasts to nurse. Women from affluent cultures are not required to nurse children, they let the children be raised on animal milk or milk that is refined and not natural. Using the breasts for what they were made for causes them to sag. Not having the money to buy bras means no money for augmented milk, in fact women from a poorer culture would more likely keep lactation going well after having a child that needs to be nursed, due to a village need to have wet nurses.
Yep, the sagging occurs because those women use them to nurse, and unlike in our cultures those women either don't know about, or can't afford contraception, which is why they have to nurse a LOT of children.
When the breasts are used to nurse, the milk making system gets bigger. It will shrink when it's not needed anymore but the skin and ligaments holding the breasts won't, thus they sag.
Actually WEARING BRAS MAKES THEM SAG MORE!
Because the bra takes all the load off the ligaments and muscles that support them. That results in said muscles and ligaments getting weaker. When the bra is taken off they are too weak to hold the breasts.
Of course you should avoid too much bouncing, for that can damage the ligaments and tissue. So it's best to wear bras when doing sports and activities where bounce too much. But other than that it's best to go braless whenever possible, to have the ligaments etc "work" and stay strong.
I agree, and for women worried about breast saging just do light muscle exersize especially pushups.
What.The.Fuck.
You guys are idiots and clearly talking about things you don't understand. Do you believe everything you read on the internet?
Muscle mass has very little to do with sagging. Sagging is often cause by ligaments and connective tissue stretching. And the more you go braless, the faster they will stretch, leading to faster sagging.
The breast itself isn't made of muscle so toning the muscles underneath will only serve to lift the sagging breasts further from your body, but they'll still be sagging.
I mean, really? Did you guys not take biology or anatomy or anything? Because you sound really stupid right now. Or do you idiots still believe you can turn fat into muscle?
What the fuck yourself.
I don't believe everything I read on the www. I do proper research before I write down my argument, with different sources.
I don't take biology or anatomy, since I'm studying Engineering. But this, and most of the stuff in your life, is not about what subjects you took, but if you can think logically and whether you can do proper research.
You yourself should stop believing everything you learned at school. Especially in subjects that can contain information that can outdate after some time (Biology for example, Maths for example doesn't outdate).
I never said anything about muscles in the breasts. I was talking about the muscles supporting the breast ligaments and tissue (pectoral muscles). It might not prevent sagging, but it makes the sagging look less obvious.
For the most part I was talking about the ligaments.
If ligaments stretch so easily you shouldn't move your body at all, or your spine ligaments might stretch and you won't be able to stand upright anymore.
They will stretch with aging. Nothing can totally prevent sagging.
So the best is to go braless at least at home. Healthy nutrition can probably help.
Keep the skin smooth and healthy with lotions etc, it's part of the things holding the shape.
Go to your local library and search for some literature regarding this before bashing people.
There are several scientific studies out there supporting my theory. Of course they probably aren't 100% accurate, but they all have the same general idea.
Because most women around you wear bras, most people don't realize how common saggy breasts are. Most, if not all, women who have soft and large breasts sag. It's just how gravity works. If she has firm but medium sized breasts, they won't sag. Lindsay Lohan has giant honkers that are very soft, and if you see topless photos of her breasts are swinging near the bottom of her ribcage.

Here, you'll enjoy looking at this. Just the first girl already has large but somewhat firm breasts and you can already see sagging.

Sagging is a part of life no matter how old the women is and if she's had babies or not. Obviously, photos of topless women in cultures where they breastfeed often and are not trying to portray them in a sexy, flattering way in the first place.

second site is awesome
dont need bra because of small brests ?
That.
Here bra's are named BH (breast holder) and the reason we have bra's is because it helps the breasts from being in the way or from taking stretch damage when the women lactate.
The sole function of bra is to keep the breasts in place, NOT to hide them.
Though over the centuries it has made it so that breasts are to be hidden.
Some even find it disgusting when someone breast feeds their children in public.
I feel warmth when I see it.
imagined, a bunch of DFCs walking in front of you, white clothes, braless.
Can't imagine it, because I'll see nothing.
Run to nearest hose and fucking spray!!
I will be the one with the water hose. :3 White is good..but a see trough white is even better.
Summer fever anyone ? Water melon will be on 00:14 Anon pocket money. :3
Black bra and pantsu :3
Purple bra and pantsu FTW :D
no bra and no pantsu!^^
Wacoal is fucking huge in Taiwan. They are always giving out surveys and theres a Wacoal store in every department store here in Taipei.
DFCs is the best!!! (>3<)
Only about 20% of them are, but that concludes DFCs as a "rarity" and should be treasured!
1/5 of the population is a "rarity" for you? In a classroom with say, 15 gurls, 3 of them will be A cup, and most of them will still be B cup ¬_¬
If you're Pedophile.
@2:28 so you are telling me grannies cant have flat chest? intriguing...
well, in reality, alot of women don't have the "proper" Bra.. so many look at bras as a pain to wear.. Many women need to go to a Upscale bra shop ( they exist!) and get a proper measurements ( Especially the well endowed women..) then they'd find there bra's comfortable ( Ex-wife had that problem.. not any more)
Bra-less?? i have no problem.. though the male population would be hunched over half the time!!
Brassiere's can help shape or puff up your bust size and also cover up any embarrassing nipple exposure from a thin T-shirt.
Women should really consider those benefits.
Although really, we'd totally be fine with nipple exposure, now wouldn't we?
Considering the amount of people that are for DFC, wouldn't mind seeing your nipples and would love to see the girl do a girly squirm and cover herself embarassed after noticing the exposed nipples;
I'd say you're better off wearing no bra and a thin white shirt if you're looking for a guy...
Striped (blue and white) bra and panties...
or maybe plain white ones...
Black ones are also great
Yeah, just my preferences...
I'm am a fan of shimapan but really, it doesn't matter, if you are showing your bra to a guy I wont expect it to remain in you for a long time.
Unless you are just a cock-tease.
Men survey: 100% "No bra" = Victory Bra
Forget pink, go translucent or tebura (手ぶら).
You're wrong. A good push-up bra is even more likely to get attention than no-bra ;)
If you were referring to the earlier article about the "man-bra". Then yeah, probably no victory if you wear it.
And when on the train, men would be happy to hold the breasts to stop the jiggling...
Thats is a very dangerous task. Even for a man with a lot of money in his pocket. Lets take an example of a man working in the Japan Space Station for now?
Zero-G breasts will make the future bright...
It was a matter of commuter safety :3
That's gonna like the best job ever.
Agree with the poll, no point to buy a bra if you are an A cup
Oooohhh yes!
Typical Couple in a Love-Hotel.
Woman: "I-I think I'm going to take my clithes off...."
Man: "Y-Yeah..."
Woman takes off her shirt.
Man (Thoughts): "N-N-NO BRA?!"
Instant Boner.
So:
No Bra = Instant boner = Victory!
Even if it's DFC.
*Especially if it's DFC
Fixed it for ya, buddy
oohhh, no bra's pure win!
I prefer white myself. Can add an extra element of teasing to shower based fun.
Reminds me of a group trip, my friend's gf forgot to bring a change of bra to the pool and he nosebled on the spot
"手ぶら"
I see what you did there...
My wife's last bra purchase, I told her 'for god's sake, just get measured so you get the right damned bra'.
I think she actually likes her current bras more than she has in the past.
It's just lucky for us guys, not knowing the real length of our peckers doesn't much matter in buying our shorts.
Support in that area does more harm than good anyway, the nutsack is 'dangling' there to stay away from your body/lower the temperature of the little guys.
Free Willy.
damn right. i wear knee length shorts for jugging and nothing under them. having my cock flapping around at my legs shift from side to side is the best. plus i get the satisfaction of knowing people can see my junk wildly smashing around.
@05:19 lol you are fucked up.
oh god..........*HURK*
Do you mind if your wife goes braless
I dont mind if his wife goes braless
=_= yeah that'd work, sure in your dream land. Not all bras are made the same size and fit vary depending on style and brand. Getting measured only gives you a guideline where to start looking.
I'm honestly ASTOUNDED if any girl doesn't know how to measure their breast sizes and wear accordingly..
It literally doesn't take more than a few minutes of video tutorial and maybe even visiting the website for bra size descriptions and voila.
As for the no-bra thing, that is hilarious to me since A cups probably don't understand the strain and embarrassment that can come from anyone approaching C or larger...
there are plenty who have no idea what is the right bra size. its painful to see them.
it feeks like seeing ppl walking down the street w/ socks and sandals on >.<
There's a lot of variability between manufacturers. She can have the correct measurements, and still not get a correct fit from some brands!
It's not like you're walking around with a hardon all day either...hypothetically.
I can measure your wife's breast size for free, here let me show you....
*gropes breast*
