There are SOOOO many myths about bras, including some mentioned in this thread. Basically bras are useful for esthetic purposes only. They DON'T shape, or support or help you avoid sagging breasts. But don't believe me, check out these links:
http://www.brafree.org/faq.html
http://www.breastnotes.com/aware/aware-bra.htm
I strongly recommend reading the entire breastnotes.com site as it has a ton of useful info, most backed up by copious research citations where appropriate. The brafree.org site is written by a female MD and also references research to back up her thesis that bras are unnatural and unhealthy and do more harm than good when worn for prolonged periods on a long term basis.
Happy reading.
