I don't bother wearing a bra and all my friends say that I'll 
end up like those women in Africa (from tribes etc) ie very 
saggy breasts. I don't believe them, because surely if your 
breasts are fairly small then the muscles will be strengthened 
due to continual use. They say there's scientific evidencefor 
their theory - is there any evidence for mine?
