I''m sure in a few months a new study will be released that says wearing bra's doesn't cause saggy breasts. Or perhaps that wearing a bra can help your breasts to grow. Or to shrink. Or sparkle in the moonlight. Or somebody will pull out the old favourite out of the bag "Wearing bras causes cancer". *rolls eyes* I even read something a few months back where some scientist or other had decided that eating lettuce can cause cancer.
Take it all with a pinch of salt, ladies.
So true!
Also, the article says something kind of odd about the muscles surrounding the breast and their already being "degraded".
Those muscles do nothing about breast shape or fullness, at all. The breasts are bags of ducts, glands, and fat. There are tiny muscles in the ducts, but they do not support breast tissue.
Exercising the muscles of the chest wall does nothing to make a breast firmer or "perkier" because those muscles are not attached to anything inside the mammary globe.
You can exercise those muscles half to death and they'll feel firm under the skin, but the skin does not get firmer. Women who exercise to increase their bust size, or to recover a more youthful silhouette, end up with a rather muscular torso, and sagging breasts on top of firm pectoral muscles.
Anyway, I enjoy wearing bras, but I also enjoy wearing corsets and girdles while considering myself a modern" woman.
