Honestly, there's nothing quite like it - other than perhaps the relief we feel after stepping out of a pair of skyscraper heels.
While bras do great work supporting the breasts, they're not always the most comfortable of things.
One woman knows this struggle all too well and has taken to a parenting forum to find out whether it would be ok if she just stopped wearing them.
Named Nicola, the woman shared a post on NetMums asking if she could get in trouble for not wearing a bra at work.
She said: "In 2018 would I get in bother if I didn't wear a bra at work?
"I just find them uncomfortable and I think everyone is well aware that people have nipples and I am not doing this for attention I just feel I shouldn't be forced to wear something."
Nicola goes to to express her disgust in the idea of women wearing something just to stop people feeling uncomfortable or to prevent men from looking at her chest.
"Who cares if some nipples are in the centre pointing down, a bit to the left or haven't even got any. It's 2018, I shouldn't have to wear something because it will make people feel less uncomfortable/stop men looking or just because it's the norm."
The woman finishes the post by asking: "Does anyone else agree? Or am I a hippie that wishes to bun all bras?"
Lots of users responded to her question - and some of the comments might surprise you.
One wrote: "It depends on your work place and how strict they are on the rules. In my work you would be asked to either pop a bra on or wear something that would result in you not revealing nipples."
Another posted: "I don't think it's right to think it's no big thing seeing someone's nipples because we all have them. Where would it end? You could have naturists or nudists in the work place."
A third revealed that they stopped wearing underwear years ago.
They said: "Maybe pop a vest top under your clothing to minimise nipple poking but I agree if you don't find them comfy don't wear them... I don't find knickers comfy so haven't worn them since 2001. It's nobody's business but my own."
Someone else added: "How uncomfortable could you possibly find a bra? Maybe you just need to invest in a more comfortable one?
"Arguably, work skirts, blouses and suits are uncomfortable and we would all rather be in comfy clothes but that's not really how office attire works."
