Swedish Professor Warns Against Tight Bras
Mon, Apr 14, 2008
Ah, Sweden. A nation known, at least among famously bookish Americans, largely for having a phenomenal Bikini Team, now has a professor who is taking care to warn the women of the world: don’t wear bras that are too tight.

Professor Goran Samsioe of Lund University has announced that wearing a bra that is too tight may adversely affect how the female form, er, forms. Apparently elastic tissue in the body, which serves a support purpose not unlike that of the brassiere itself, is stunted if not presented with the challenge of natural movement on a daily basis. If the movement is restricted too much, this tissue won’t fully develop, leading to a–cover your eyes, faint of heart– decrease in the distance between the nipples and the ground among women who wear bras.

So now guys have scientific proof gals should wear bras that allow more bounce and jiggle.
Or no bras at all at the young adult age range.
Coolies.
Bounce up and down, I have evidence it’s good for you, and I have a trampoline!
PS: I don’t really have a trampoline but if hoards of 18 year olds suddenly feel the need for some therapeutic braless bouncing, I’ll get one 1st thing. Walmart is 24 hours and they sell trampolines. 24 hour emergency trampoline access, yet another reason I love America.
