Additional info, added Sunday April 23 2006, 8:48 pm: I don't know what size cup I am.. Want to answer more questions in the Health & Fitness category? Maybe give some free advice about: Fitness? KELLY_ELIZABETH answered Tuesday April 25 2006, 8:53 pm: it deffinitally depends on what cup size you are. if you dont know this - then you can go to [for example] victorias secret and ask them to measure you. i know for a fact that they do it for free.. theres also ways you can do it yourself. i agree with the other people - if your above an A cup then you should try wearing real bras - not just the built in ones in camis. ofcorse you can still wear camis just wear a bra then a cami. if you dont start wearing a bra soon - then your boobs with start looking "droopy" and if your nipples are hard then it will be kinda gross [ haha ].
TinkerbellsHelp answered Sunday April 23 2006, 8:37 pm: Well it depends on your cup size. If you are a size A or over, a real bra should be worn (some people dont like seeing a girl without a bra because her boobs may sag or her nipples may po put. gross right?). If your like an AA or something, there is no need.

I think that bras are more comfortable, and also make me feel more feminine. Maybe you don't want to feel that way, and in that case I would continue wearing camis.
sizzlinmandolin answered Sunday April 23 2006, 3:00 pm: Nothing bad or good is going to happen either way. You're not going to get cancer or back pain from wearing a bra (or cami) to bed. Those are huge myths. Wear what you are comfortable with. I would only suggest wearing a "real" bra if your chest was sore from not having enough support. If, after running or doing some sort of other activity that causes your chest to bounce a lot, you feel pain, then you should probably invest in a real bra to wear for when you exercise. Again though, it's just soreness and no negative effects can come of it. Good luck. [ sizzlinmandolin's advice column | Ask sizzlinmandolin A Question ]

If your not flat, yes =)
Yes because you can't just wear cami's for the rest of your life. Once in a while your going to want a real bra =)
xoMarisox answered Sunday April 23 2006, 10:28 am: It depends on your size. If you're not that big then you probably don't need one. If they work for you, then that's fine. You don't need a real bra... [ xoMarisox's advice column | Ask xoMarisox A Question ]
NinjaNeer answered Sunday April 23 2006, 3:50 am: It really all depends on your size. If a built-in is comfortable for you and supports you fully, then go for it! It's one less article of clothing to wear.
xRainySundayx answered Sunday April 23 2006, 3:39 am: Only wear a bra if you want to. You have the rest of your life to "need" one.
Despite common myth, bras are not needed for support. If you put one on and feel more comfortable then, as a personal preference, wear one.
Bras are worn mostly because of social norms and to heighten sexual appeal.
If, and when you start to wear a bra, limit your time wearing it. This goes for everyone. Wearing a bra to bed or in excess is starting to be studied as a link to breast cancer.
When you get a bra, go some place you are comfortable. Ask for help. That's what the salespeople are there for. It may seem embarassing, but if you get a bra that doesnt fit then you are spending money for no reason. [ xRainySundayx's advice column | Ask xRainySundayx A Question ]
