I don't think so. I have found bras uncomfortable ever since I started wearing them, from pre-A cup through B, C, D and back to C. I think people's breasts just respond differently to being confined.

Oh dear...

Now the news is sayign that if a woman has a "larger" cup size, she is at a very high risk of developing Type 1 Diabetes Fear mongering....ggrrrrr.

I still say, if a person eats a standard amercian diet, which is full of free radicals, that is the root cause.
So, that plays into the tight bra. Lymph nodes are toxic and can't drain, etc....
But the Type 1 and cup size? Come on!

Yeah - I had the same reaction to the other poster. I'm a 38DD (large, but not as large as some, obviously), and the annoying sweat is one of the primary reasons I do wear a bra.

Darn, I bet that will really cut down on the protection of breastfeeding I got from breastfeeding. I wonder if insurance companies will charge bra wearing women a surcharge.
