[Margaret Pilkington]

Each to their own Margaret. Personally, I do not feel comfortable without my undergarments.
I wear clothes that are comfortable....don't nip or pinch.....never dig into my skin.
If something becomes uncomfortable I throw it out(in the case of underwear) - or recycle it.
I have to admit, I haven't read the whole article....there must be some uncertainty because it is asking a question rather than shouting a statement. I might read it later on....but I won't be abandoning my bra.
