I read on a website that it stops blood flow and that's why women get breast cancer. Could it be that all you have to do is wear a bra without a wire and you could prevent breast cancer? Were women getting breast cancer before wire bras were invented, someone should check on that.

That is not accurate in any way. Breast cancer can be caused by a number of factors, none of which is a wire bra. People have gotten the disease for a long time before they were ever invented. Centuries in fact. Don't believe everything you read on line. Balance the stories with actual facts.

There is no scientific documented evidence that wire bras cause breast cancer. President John Adams daughter, Abigail Adams Smith, died from breast cancer in 1813 . . long before wire bra's. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abigail_Adams_Smith According to the history of cancer report from ACS, the oldest description of breast cancer occurred in Egypt around 1600 BC - "The Edwin Smith Papyrus, or writing, describes 8 cases of tumors or ulcers of the breast that were treated by cauterization, with a tool called "the fire drill." The writing says about the disease, "There is no treatment." The human mummies never wore wire bras. http://www.cancer.org/docroot/CRI/content/CRI_2_6x_the_history_of_cancer_72.asp
