Braless woman in a camisole top
Some feminist writers consider the bra as an example of how women's clothing has shaped and even deformed women's bodies to historically aesthetic ideals, or shaped them to conform to male expectations of what is desirable. Germaine Greer, for example, has portrayed bras as symbols of oppression. Another movement, sometimes called topfreedom, questions the medical or social necessity of bras.
