Is it possible to go without a bra at home?

Social and cultural norms dictate that women should hide their secondary sexual characteristics. During the daytime, the bust should not be shown through transparent clothing or lack of underwear. However, in the evening the girl herself is free to decide how and in what form she should go.

Is it possible not to wear a bra at home?

A common misconception is that when determining a position on an issue, one must rely primarily on size. According to this rule owners of small breasts can easily do without outer underwear, not only at home, but also on the street. Reason: due to low weight, the mammary glands do not sag.

In fact, small breasts can also sag unsightly and lose their firmness. This is what is commonly called “spaniel ears.” And if signs of the process are already observed, there is no need to aggravate the situation. You should try to correct the problem with the help of special supportive underwear, massage and exercises.The first one is worn practically without taking it off, with the exception of being made only at night.

Important! To ensure that the bra does not rub, does not interfere with the circulation of lymph and blood, and also does not tighten or impede breathing, it is necessary not only to choose the right size, but also to wear different styles. If you change models throughout the day, there will be no discomfort.

Busty ladies are often advised not to give up their bra. Stepping can theoretically increase back pain and cause the chest to sag. However in fact, with breast sizes 6–7, the bra rubs a lot due to the volume of glandular tissue and practically does not neutralize the load on the spine. For really curvy figures, it is necessary to relieve the shoulder and chest area with the help of orthopedic corsets, and not rely on the hidden magical properties of the bust.

Important! Rely not on the size of the breast, but on its shape, the state of the musculoskeletal system and your own sensations.

Before giving up a bra, it makes sense to ask your household’s opinion on the issue.. We are talking about the closest people - husband or mother. If a mother considers that her daughter should not appear in common rooms in this form, in order to avoid misunderstandings and disagreements, it is worth listening to the older generation. This also applies to the position of the spouse. Some husbands react extremely sharply to their wife’s nipples protruding through a jacket or robe.

It is also worth considering the composition of the family. The more men and teenage boys at home, the less appropriate “freedom” from women’s underwear. The bust is worn around the clock by women who have recently given birth or are just preparing for motherhood. There are several reasons for this:

• under the influence of changes in the hormonal system, the breasts change shape, it is necessary to help them “lie down” correctly and beautifully after the changes;
• secreted colostrum and milk leave greasy marks on clothes (a bra with liners will protect clothes);
• nipples become very sensitive, very often contact with the fabrics of sweaters causes discomfort and irritation in pregnant women;
• A bra for a nursing mother is a matter of hygiene.

Climate also plays a role. It's hard to wear a bra in hot weather. The skin becomes dry and chafes faster. In this case, short-term freedom from the bust is not a whim, but a measure aimed at maintaining the health of the epidermis.

The benefits and harms of such “freedom”

The issue is controversial; there is no consensus in the scientific community. Scientists can't even agree on whether bras are safe underwear. According to one theory, partially confirmed during the experiment, the bra does not solve any of the problems attributed to it. And its use increases the risk of malignant degeneration of the mammary glands. Moreover, a correctly selected size does not correct this probability.

Although the theory voiced has been confirmed, you should not completely deny the usefulness of a bra. As mentioned above, it is very helpful for pregnant and lactating women. In their case, wearing a bra at home is a justified measure.

The same can be said for girls of early puberty. For them, the first bra is not only a tool for forming beautiful breasts, but also a psychological anchor. With the help of such a wardrobe item, the girl realizes that she has become a little woman.

The psychological aspect can also be seen in the attitude of the older generation to the situation. They may overreact to someone walking around in their home in an “inappropriate manner.” If you live with your parents, yours or your husband’s, it is better to refrain from experimenting with a home “dress code”.It will harm more than it will help.

Important! In a communal apartment or dormitory, the absence of a bra on an unmarried girl can cause sexual aggression and harassment.

How does the bust “react” to this?

There are 3 theories on this matter:

1. According to the first, after refusing to wear a bust, the breasts not only do not sag, but also become more elastic. The study was conducted by French scientists. Professional female athletes took part in the experiment. In other words, women who systematically perform exercises to keep their upper body in shape and lead a healthy lifestyle. Therefore, you should not blindly believe the results of this study. It does not take into account the peculiarities of the existence of ordinary girls.
2. According to the second, reducing wearing a bra to 10 or less hours a day helps reduce the risk of cancerous degeneration of glandular tissues. The theory was tested in laboratory conditions by American scientists Sidney Singer and Som Griesmaijer.
3. According to the third, maintaining and correcting the shape of the mammary glands should be permanent.. The results of activities aimed at restoring youth to the bust are secured precisely by the use of a comfortable and correct bra.
