I hate bras – my friend’s insisting I wear one to her wedding but I refuse, people see a major flaw in my reasoning
A SMALLER-BUSTED woman's decision to not wear a bra to her friend's wedding has sparked major blowback.
She said that she hates the "uncomfortable" underwear and refuses to put it on for the occasion, but Redditors insist her justification doesn't make sense.
Reddit user has taken to social media to assess whether or not she is in the wrong for not wanting to wear a bra to her friend's wedding.
In a on the platform, she detailed why she found it "invasive" for her to wear one.
The 23-year-old woman revealed that she has small boobs and prefers not to wear bras because she finds them uncomfortable.
"You can’t tell if I’m wearing a bra or not in most tops," she explained.
Her 25-year-old friend Kate is getting married and the Reddit user was asked to be a bridesmaid.
"I accepted and then she texted me privately to ask if I could wear a bra for her wedding as she doesn’t want me to flash someone," she wrote.
As a consolation, she tried explaining to her that the bridesmaid dress style she had picked out had full sleeves so you wouldn’t be able to tell.
That didn't go over very well with her friend Kate, and she got "really mad" at her.

The poster's sister advised her to "just suck it up and wear a bra."
"I just find it to be a weird invasive question as you literally can’t tell if I had a bra on in the first place or not in that dress, and I’m sure no one over there is staring at my chest," she admitted.
Many readers were not on her side and deemed that she was in the wrong.
"Yeah unless she’s covering the nips with pasties she will need to wear a bra. A wedding is a formal event: it’s not appropriate to show nipples," one commented.
"Yes to this. If she asked you, you can tell. Even with small breasts, you can get stretch marks. I worked with someone who did just as you. If you want to be in the wedding, wear one,"; another advised.
"Yup, [you're the a**hole]. I'm a medium-chested no-bra girl. I honestly think my chest looks better without one. I threw a cocktail party at New Year's, and I wasn't wearing a bra," a reader said.
"However, I'm aware it's noticeable. If a friend said she was uncomfortable, I'd wear one. Especially to her wedding. You are making this about you, OP, over a tiny request," another wrote.
