[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Huh, I always thought the opposite OP. I’m a very small chested woman (barely an A) and I’ve always resented having to wear a bra just to make other people comfortable, since it’s certainly not for my comfort. I always assumed women with larger boobs wore bras because they help support. That’s what my friends have told me.

And as someone who has gone braless a lot as an adult woman, I can tell you for sure that the people most worried about how inappropriate this is are middle aged women (I am middle aged, this isn’t again, I’m just sharing facts). They are the only ones scandalized by nipple visible through a shirt or who will pull you aside to tell you that you would look “more appropriate” in a bra. This is very much a self-policing thing with women, as most clothing issues are. Women will shame you hard if you don’t conform. It’s like “we are all suffering under these rules and unrealistic expectations, what makes you think you are so special that you can opt out?”[/quote]

It’s more that like seeing your nipples is a level of intimacy I don’t care to experience with you.  It’s a part of your body I don’t care to see.  I don’t want to see your belly button, breasts, or butt cheeks.  Clothing puts those things away, so I can interact with your face.  That’s enough for me. [/quote]
