Bras make breasts saggier-they are a false necessity (girl, head, long)

Next they'll do a boxers vs briefs study for men.....I'm not hanging around for that.

Add me to the runners who won't take a step without a sports bra. I'm pretty sure all that bouncing up and down would eventually cause more sagging than not wearing one. As I said to a friend last year, I'm 59 and my you-know-whats still point forward, not down, so I'm happy.
I can HIGHLY recommend this bra. I've owned three of them. 36E, 34DD, 32DD (as I lost weight) Some women don't like them because they provide separation and encapsulation. They prefer what I call "pancake *****" or uni-boob.
With all these years of viewing National Geographic magazines it seems to me that the tribal gals who don't wear bras get pretty droopy, but the western gals who do wear bras seem to keep their shape for a lot longer...that's just my observation.
I wonder what explanation the researchers would give for this.
I have this one, it works great! (34Hish here) Suitable for jogging!
I also have this: http://www.amazon.com/Shock-Absorber.../dp/B002C1AZHS and it is also great. The Freya has better shape. The Shock absorber is a bit of a pain to put on, but is more comfy. Also excellent for running and jumping.
there is another study that says that 90% of studies posted on the internet are complete bs.
LOL!
I don't believe most women wear a bra because of worrying about sagging. Gravity and age will take care of that very nicely, unfortunately. I truly believe bras are helpful to prevent pain (especially for the larger chicks) and with modesty (Pervert gawking prevention).
Bottom line - bras do nothing one way or another re" "sagging". They are just a modern invention, derived from the corset to enhance the figure and also provide modesty.
When I can, I go without for comfort reasons, other times I strap one on to lift and shape!

Most of those women have multiple children and breast feed. And by multiple children I do not mean 2.3 more like 6 or more. Many of the women are also photographed while carrying an infant/toddler are breastfeeding so their breasts are enlarged.

In the land of humans, sports bras are a pretty new invention. Native Americans didn't have them and they seem to get along just fine. Pretty sure they ran in actual woods and not on a treadmill in a heated/air conditioned gym. Or maybe it was just the Senecas who lived outdoors.
Just checking in to see if any more pics have been posted.
