Oh, dear nutty French professor...
Who funded this research?
Yeah, sure, an AA or A cup will do fine without a bra. My own extensive experience with secondary school gym class and no sports bra (because I couldn't afford it) taught me why I need a sports bra.
Also, I'm pretty sure a simple trip to Africa would have been cheaper than this study. And the conclusion would have been far different!

I think that this has been discussed ad nauseum. Also, Lingerie Addict has a great post on why the whole "trip to Africa" bit of your post can be seen as offensive. http://www.thelingerieaddict.com/2013/04/do-bras-prevent-breast-sagging.html (nsfw)
ProperlyFitted Then don't read it. It was the first time I read it.
And actually, please explain to me why it is offensive to you that I have noticed, growing up in Africa where many women did not wear bras at that time, that not wearing bras made boobs at least look saggier under clothes? I don't think there's much difference between the breasts at age 65 to be honest. I wasn't even talking about race or tribal ethnicity. If I was, I would have specified.
Please explain to me why simply using the word 'Africa' suddenly turns it into offence? I'm responsible for what I said, not for anyone's associations with the word 'Africa'.
For the record: I am South-African. I am white African, and I face prejudice over that more often than you think. When I talk about Africa, I talk about home.
