It's unfortunate that women are so brainwashed by the media and so fixated on a youthful appearance that they would wear the 'torture device' better known as a 'bra'.
Yes, I was in my early twenties when feminists started the 'burn the bra' campaign. Even though I wasn't a card-carrying feminist, I thought the idea made perfect sense.
I've hated wearing bras ever since my older sister forced one upon me at the age of 13. I never had much in the way of breasts until I had my first child at the age of 31. Even then I couldn't force myself to wear a bra.
I hardly ever wear a bra now. I've worn undershirts, tanks tops, half slips, sports bras etc. under my overs because I can't stand to pull, tug, and manipulate straps and under wires.
I am now a senior citizen and I may not have perky breasts aiming skyward, but I don't have ones that sag to my knees either. I've lived my life in comfort!
Finally, I have been put at ease by the following article written by Cynthia Perkins, M.Ed. Check it out: http://www.holistichelp.net/blog/8-reasons-you-should-burn-your-bra/
BAN THE BRA!
