#4 Well meaning idiots — they seek the Holy Grail. They won’t find it, sadly, and if they come out with their own product instead of sending female soldiers to the nearest Nordstrom with $200 and orders to be properly fitted before they purchase anything — around two thirds of women do not realize they are wearing the wrong size bra, which is why they’re so often so uncomfortable — I guarantee that about 90% of the women will end up in something actively painful because it neither fits nor meets their needs.

Only small busted women (A to B cup) can or should wear a pull-over shelf bra. Anything bigger than that — for physically active women — needs an encapsulation bra, with or without underwires, that is individually fitted to take into account not just cup size and chest diameter, but half a dozen factors altogether. Ignoring any of those factors will result in something that is not only uncomfortable to wear but can cause painful sores. Different bra designers orient their products to this or that combination of factors, such that, for instance, none of the five females that passed through the wife household were comfortable in the same size/brand of bra, and their sizes changed with weight gain/loss and muscularity gain/loss, though I drew the line at purchasing several sizes at once to accommodate time of the month. It was frustrating to discover how often we needed to go back to be properly fitted for the stupid things.
