Who cares what color your bra is?

When I first saw the pink sports bra on a model in the store, I thought to myself "Who cares what color your bra is?" Then I realized that there is a serious message being sent when you wear pink. Pink means delicate and precious. It represents newness and femininity. Just think about it. What do you buy for the baby shower when you know it's a girl? Pink. This is why the pink sports bra is such a hit with many women today. It pulls them back to their childhood with such an innocence that it also creates an aura of womanhood most women cannot resist. Could this be why the Breast Cancer Awareness campaign uses pink? Not sure, but it sure could be a logical conclusion.
Additionally, some women realize that pink makes a statement and others may be able to read and interpret that statement. Well, when it comes to the pink sports bras, there are those made to be worn as outer garments. I could not believe this until I actually saw it. There's one that's called the Tunic Fan Tank which has a built in bra in the garment! One can be seen at http://www.pinksportsbras.com and the more traditional sports bra is also recommended. I, for one, could not conceive of a bra that would be an outer garment unless it looked like some bikini. Far from this, the tunic fan actually gives quite a bit of breathing space for the stomach that some t-shirts don't even offer. I must admit that this was quite inspiring for me, not being so inclined to exercise.

When I really thought about it, I didn't heavily consider the need for wearing a sports bra while exercising, much less a pink sports bra. I thought that support from a traditional bra was adequate. However, I have learned otherwise in the health-conscious, body-protective culture, the recommendation stands. A popular website called Run The Planet said
The breasts need to be held firmly in position to minimise bouncing around which is uncomfortable, but more importantly, causes stretching of the Coopers ligament which is the only ligament that stops the breast from sagging (once stretched it is irreversible, sagging breasts forever!).
The bottom line here is definitely prevention of sagging breasts, an inevitable consequence as women age. While working out and exercising, it is vital that women wear undergarments that provide excellent support. Many women may not consider why a sport bra is so important in that respect. However, it is vital to consider such a garment. Deciding which bra to choose is important. A pink sports bra solves the problem and creates a stylish look at the same time. It should fit snugly without the rib band obstructing breathing. It should give a smooth outline without ugly bulges over the cups or around the back. Therefore, the pink sports bra will help to keep women young-looking, athletic, stylish, en vogue, and contemporary. Once again, our society promotes keeping you looking as young as possible. Youth signifies beauty and beauty means that more enjoyable years are looming. That's funny, all this is saying is that the pink sports bra promotes youthful living and beauty.
