If it were safe to never wear a bra, I would choose not to😂 but I am no petite and I live in a conservative country with somewhat high sexual assault and people gazing+ recording women in a bikini. Bra sizes here are sold in number and each has different sizes but much like you, I love my sports bra and my mom was the one who introduced me to it. I think sports bra are the most convenient since I move a lot but now, since I try to be a bit more feminine, I tried those wired bra, they are hell. Who even had the idea of making that kind of bra lol.
That's one of the reasons why it's important for me to replace mine now that I'm going back to Jamaica.😏
I think that's the same in Jamaica, and also in the Philippines. That's one of the reasons I guess why my mum never knew the importance of getting me the right fit. She was more concerned to have a doctor stop the growth of my breast, which of course I objected to.
It's when I came to Europe that I got accurate information on my correct size and the breakdown of the measurement, how to determine the proper fit, and how hazardous wearing incorrect sizes can be.
They are, especially a poorly made one!
The wired ones can be very painful, I once took a size too small and I felt out of breath after a day. Torture lol.
