Women who wore their bras 24 hours per day had a 3 out of 4 chance of developing breast cancer.Women who wore bras more than 12 hour per day, but not to bed, had a 1 out of 7 risk.
Women who wore their bras less than 12 hours per day had a 1 out of 52 risk.
Women who wore bras rarely or never had a 1 out of 168 chance of getting breast cancer.
The overall difference between 24 hour wearing and not at all was a 125-fold difference. The results of this study are compelling, even considering that it was not a "controlled study" for other risk factors. Bear in mind that known (published in medical journals) risk factors for breast cancer are mostly in the range of less than three-fold differences.

Very interesting, but I bet the researchers don't have big boobs. As nice as it would be to be bra-less, a lot of women might find it quite uncomfortable or impossible to get on with their jobs if not for bras.
