Woman sparks debate with comments about washing her bra

A woman has sparked online debate over the frequency of washing her bra.

Many of us would remember our mothers telling us to always wear clean underwear.

But what about our bras?

A woman on an online forum has sparked debate about the frequency you should wash your bra.

On the website MumsNet, an online forum for mums, one user admitted to only washing her bras “about once a month”.

“I have 3 so that’s about 10 wears per wash,” she wrote.

“They seem clean – boobs are clean right?”

However she did say she washed her maternity bras “constantly”, and asked “how often should a bra be washed?”.

It’s sparked a flurry of online comments and debate about how often a woman should wash her bra.

Some of the forum users supported the woman, saying they only washed their bras every few weeks or after a few washes.

But other women labelled it “disgusting” and “gross” and said like their underwear, they washed their bras daily.

So, what do you think? How often do you wash your bra?
