women's fitness IS serious, and important
this is mostly directed towards rcastanon, who i'm going to guess is either be a man, or a woman who doesn't work out regularly enough to care about proper workout gear.
not only should the needs of female athletes be taken seriously, but all women should take fitness seriously. Working out can ease the symptoms of depression and prevent breast cancer, as well as lowering cholesterol and blood pressure etc etc. there IS an obesity epidemic in this country, and that too should be taken seriously.
yes, it's tempting to act dismissively and derisively about the fact that women have boobies and they bounce when we move, but having an unsupportive bra can make working out extremely uncomfortable. i wonder, actually, if the female soldiers in iraq are issued proper bras.
and for you ladies who enjoy working out but have yet to find a supportive bra: try nike. i've always had good luck with them.
