there is nothing wrong with not wearing a bra when men are present. that said some people see it a sign of respecting ones own body and not accidentally inviting trouble. you see there are certain locations, religions and cultures that require certain clothing / coverages around men.

there is also a sensitivity situation where there are certain parts of the human body that are extra sensitive to touch including fabrics. lets put it this way breasts have lots of sensitive nerve endings that become for lack of better words aroused sometimes just a shirt touching them can cause this normal reaction.

when this happens it shows through the shirt and can be mis interpreted as a woman or man being sexually attracted to those around them. Hence why women and men are taught to wear undergarments (bras for women and t-shirts under their shirts for men.) this way there is no mis interpretations or accidental arousal reactions due to the breasts against outer clothing showing through.

think of it kind of like a guy who wears a cup over their penis in certain sports, activities and sometimes just around the house. they are protecting their ultra sensitive parts of their body from harm.

A bra gives a woman a bit more protection then no bra. not to mention the muscles in breasts can stretch, hang lower and lower... not to mention back issues that can happen when there is no support over a length of time.

my suggestion is that if its your moms house, moms rules would apply, your own house your rules. your body you need to decide how much respect for your self and your body you want to have when around other people. whether you want to give the messages of who you really are or have the guys around you mis interpreting who and what you are.

no Im not saying if anything were to happen it would be a result of clothing or not clothing. just that in life we all have to decide how we want others to see us, do we want people to see us as hanging low or supported, with dignity and respect.... that kind of stuff.

me I hate the dang things too but when around others I have respect for my body and understand that my "girls" need all the support and respect that they deserve after all they are my childrens first meals and all. when its just my wife and I in the home its all natural
