Do you take off your bra when you at home? or not comfortable without it?
Some advices said that better to take off your bra when your inside your house alone with your family coz its not a good health for a woman and avoidance of breast cancer. Just wear it if you going to work or outside door activities. But i knew some woman who not to used bra even outdoors.
Is it true that is not good to wear bra all the time? that it can cause for breast cancer?

I don't wear anything restricting in the house, bra, pantyhose tight pants etc, I have always been that way. The minute I got in the house I take them off. I don't know if there is any truth to that saying that wearing a bra can cause cancer, but it is a good question, I hope somebody knows.

From a mans perspective, women should never wear bra's, specially when wearing tank tops, or thin shirts. We'd prefer it that way :D

I wear my bra all the time except in shower or in bed.
It is just uncomfortable for me to be without it b/c
I am well endowed and the heaviness is uncomfortable.

The only time I wear a bra is when I am going to be away from the house paying bills, shopping, or looking for a job. It doesn't matter to me if my kids and boyfriend is home or not, I'm more comfortably without it. I don't know about it causing cancer and whatnot, but I do find that it cuts the circulation off on the body, esp if one wears them to tight.

i usually wear a bra even when i'm at home and i just usually took it off whenever i'm going to sleep. my mom also told me about that thing especially when i'm gonna sleep. she always checks if i wear a bra or not.

i wear my bra every second except when i shower or am in a bathing suit seriously i even sleep with it, i hear if you don't wear it your boobs will sag sooner in life, and also i just don't feel comfortable without it on, and espesically when i have to go up or down stairs and my boobs bounce its so painfull, i don't know why people dont' wear bras all the time and when they around other people and you can see their nipples and their boobs just dont' look well shaped it looks nasty

Actually, there are really some woman who dont wear a bra even going to public area or scrolling in the mall. Young or old did it...I think they just not comfortable with it..And there are some that i knew that she didn't wear even an panties and that is other matter to discuss with..

I just responded to a discussion about shoes so this is really funny. The fact is, when I get home the first thing I take off are my shoes and the second thing is my bra! It's so uncomfortable I can't believe there are women who even sleep in one. I've never heard they can cause cancer but I know they can cause major discomfort and sweating in the summer.

I am a big fan of being bra free. In fact I really on wear one for special occasions and let me tell you it has to be very special!
I have no idea as to whether there are cancer risks or not I just know that I find them rather restrictive and uncomfortable. Also as there is not much for me to put in one I don't really see the point

I know I probably shouldn't, but I only take it off when I take a shower. I don't feel comfortable without it. There have been times when I didn't use one, but if I don't, I bounce around because they are so big. I prefer to keep them in place. I have never heard that one, but who knows, there could be some truth to it.

I understand. I guess if I use a swim suit, I don't wear one either, but It has to be one that provides some support. I hate bouncing around!!!

I don't know about the medical repercussions of wearing a bra all the time, but I hate them. I only wear mine if I'm going outside or if the kids are home. Other than that, it's gone! I don't know about the cancer end, but I have heard that if you sleep with one on it can cut your circulation.

Well I don't know on it causing cancer but considering they tell men not to wear tight briefs/pants because it can cause prostate problems it does make me wonder if there couldn't be a relationship between the two.
I don't wear one around the house. It's the first thing to come off when I get home. Of course now I have trouble wearing one due to shoulder problems, getting one on and off hurts so I don't put one on that often anymore. I just find them all around uncomfortable and prefer not to wear them.

I usually take mine off when I get home. I also take it off when I sleep. I've heard the stories where they can cause cancer, I don't know if that's true or not. I do like to be comfortable though, and I'm most comfortable without a bra on.
I will not go out in public or have company over if I'm not wearing one though.

I'm sure the cancer thing is a myth, but I don't wear one when I don't need to just because it's uncomfortable. I hate being restricted.
I have very little to cover, so even if I'm out away from home, if I have two layers on (turtlneck and sweatshirt), I can still get away with it.
