I detest wearing a bra. I think it's ridiculous that we have to wear wire and squish our boobs because people find nipples under clothes appealing/offensive.

I wear one because I have to, but if I can wear clothes that cover me adequately I will skip it.

I think women won't truly be equal as long as we have to manipulate our bodies in a hurtful way to please others. It's the modern equivalent of a corset. The only somewhat male equivalent is a tie, and I rarely see that even in corporate America. (Except lawyers, bankers, and execs)

I think most women wear bras because it keeps there boobs up or to make them look bigger. Others because its more comfortable and gives support. Unless your wearing white, covering up nipples shouldn't be a big deal IMO

a tight tanktop shirt or tight tshirt underneath whatever regular shirt, blouse, or sweatshirt is good enough as a bra and you can't see through them. (Underwire) bras are uncomfortable. I hate wearing them.

Because I wear a shirt under my scrubs, I could totally get away with it. But I don't think it would be very comfortable.

Bras are more comfortable (when properly fitted, particularly if you are moving around.) And your clothing looks better with a bra on. Plus there are plenty of studies that say you work better when you dress the part. Going braless would make me feel like it is nap time.

Is Casual Dress Killing Your Productivity?

You're male, aren't you? Shut up and listen, you might learn something.

I agree, but I would be so embarrassed by the jiggling! Sometimes in winter I'll skip a bra if I'm wearing lots of layers, but I'm always self conscious. Easier to just put a bra on and not have to think about it.

OP, have you shopped for wireless bras lately? They have gotten surprisingly good.
