Free the nipple: Conclusive proof bras are bad for your boobs
Does that make you feel like a bit of a tit?
The TabYou don’t have to wear a bra everyday to have perky boobs – according to scientists.
Top French professor Jean-Denis Rouillon, who has been abreast of the science of boobs since 1997, has claimed wearing a bra regularly will actually make them saggier.
Speaking on French radio this week, Rouillon said: “Medically, physiologically, anatomically – breasts gain no benefit from being denied gravity.
“On the contrary, they get saggier with a bra.”
Dude, where’s my bra?
Unnervingly, Rouillion has been measuring the breasts of 330 volunteers aged 18 to 35 using a slide ruler and a caliper ever since 1997.
The original 15 year study, which was released in 2013, revealed young women who wear bra’s will have boobs that are up to seven whole millimetres saggier per year than their bra-less contemporaries.
Tab pioneer Eleanor Shaw abandoned bras back in 2014. She wrote: “I’m sick and fucking tired of keeping my pair in boob prison for 12 hours a day just because I’m expected to.
“So I’m burning my bras. They’re expensive, uncomfortable, and unnecessary. Personally, I love nipples. Especially my own.”
Freedom
The news from Rouillon is certainly positive for the Free the Nipple Campaign, which aims to eradicate the double standards surrounding the censorship of female breasts in the media. In an attempt to contribute to this empowering movement, we weren’t afraid to show our naked breasts.
