Hannah Joy (@hannah.jjj) boasts over 115,000 followers on TikTok, where she shares random moments from her life in San Diego.

She also hosts the podcast All Things Universe with Hannah, which focuses on spiritual awakenings and manifestation.

She looked carefree as she took to social media to explain why she no longer wears bras.

“I stopped wearing bras like two years ago and I always thought that makes them strong but now I’m hearing that makes them sag,” read the text over the video.

“But I feel like bras would make them lazy and sag. So I don’t know I’m getting mixed signals.”

Hannah posed from different angles as a remix of 2Pac’s song Hit’ Em Up played in the background.

The six-second clip went viral with thousands of views and over 68,000 likes from people who were intrigued by her theory.

Hundreds of viewers took to the comment section admitting they were uncertain of the best way to stop breasts from sagging.

However, many admitted they’ve also stopped wearing bras in recent years because of comfort.

“I never wear them and they are so perky compared to when I did,” one argued.

“I mean I personally just prefer not wearing one, it makes me feel more connected to my femininity and less restrained,” another quipped.

Other commenters suggested breast sizes make a difference in how perky they stay without wearing a bra.

“I think it depends on the size, mine are quite big so they definitely need the support,” one wrote.

“It makes sense not wearing one would make them sag because if you’re running or jumping there’s no support and they’d eventually sag from the strain,” another chimed in.

“Actually a bra helps keep them perky, going without a bra constantly causes them to sag because they’re never having to stay up after a while,” a third said.

“Not wearing a bra definitely results in sagging. Just look at any of the tribes that don’t wear clothing.

"However, do what makes you comfortable,” a fourth chimed in.

“Ok… so it’s called aging and if you want to avoid sagging in general, chest workouts,” another added.

The debate comes after a 15-year study into wearing bras from the University of Besançon, France.

According to Medical News Today, researchers found that wearing a bra “does more harm than good” after looking at the data of volunteers aged 18 to 35.

The experts claim bras do nothing to reduce back pain and weaken the muscles that hold up the breast therefore resulting in greater breast sagging.

Previous studies have found some women are damaging their breasts by unknowingly wearing the wrong bra size.
