	========================================================
	DUE TO CENSORSHIP OF THE ALT.SEX GROUP AND THE FACT THAT
	I HAVE HAD LOTS OF REQUESTS FOR THE RESULTS FROM THOSE
	WHO HAVE THIS PROBLEM I HAVE TO POST HERE IN REC.NUDE
		SORRY IF IT OFFENDS THEE !!!!!!!!!!!!!
	========================================================





	            HERE ARE THE RESULTS OF THE BRA SURVEY
	            --------------------------------------
	
	       A total of 56  valid responses were submitted. Of these 12
	were males responding on behalf of their SOs.  The results of the
	survey say something about the women who subscribe to the network
	and who are willing to respond to surveys.  I have no Idea how to
	extrapolate that  to  the rest  of  woman-kind.  The  results are
	none-the-less interesting. So Here goes.
	
	
	Question 1 : Do you wear a bra.
	-------------------------------
	
	NEVER
	0 *                                                 (1) 
	1 **                                                (2)
	2                                                   (0)
	3 **                                                (2)
	4 ******                                            (6)
	5 ********                                          (8)
	6 *************************************             (37)
	ALWAYS
	
	     ie. of the responders 98% wear a bra at least some of the
	time and 66% wear a bra all of the time.
	
	Question 2 & 3 : Bra choices. (of those who wear bras)
	-----------------------------------------------------
	
	     R = Rear  closing only
	     R = Front closing only
	     B = Both
	     O = Other
	
	R ****************************** (31) 
	F **                             (2)      
	B *********************          (21)
	O **                             (2)
	
	
	Question 4 & 5 : Behind the back versus belt-and-twist
	------------------------------------------------------
	
	     R = behind the back only
	     F = belt-and twist only
	     B = Both
	
	R **********************                               (22)   
	F *************************                            (25)
	B ****                                                 (4)  
	     
	
	    That is 43%  exclusively use the behind the back method while
	49%  us  the belt  and twist method.  The  remaining  8% use both
	methods either interchangeably or depending on the bra style.
	
	     
	Question 6 : If You belt-and -twist have you always done so.
	------------------------------------------------------------
	
	     Of the exclusive belt-and-twist users 8  (32%) reported that
	they had always done it that way. The remainder started out using
	the behind the back method then switched to belt-and-twist.
	
	Question 7 : If you rear fasten have you tried belt-and-twist.
	--------------------------------------------------------------
	
	     Of those who exclusively rear fasten, 14 (64%) have tried
	belt and twist and still preferred behind the back.
	
	Question 8, 9 & 10 : Front Fastening Methods.
	---------------------------------------------
	
	     1 One arm in behind the back first only
	     2 Two arms in behind the back first only
	     C Combination of 1 & 2
	     F Two arms crossed in front over the head method only
	
	1 *********       (10) 
	2 **              (2)
	C *********       (10)
	F *               (1)
	
	=================================================================
	
	                SO WHAT DOES THIS ALL MEAN.
	
	      
	          The results show that 
	
	
	     1.  The majority of the women that responded  wear bras most
	of the time.  Or at  least,  those that  read  the  net.  This is
	probably not applicable to women in general since the majority of
	responders are from office  environments where  dress clothes are
	more prevalent. 
	
	     2.  Of bra choices the rear fasteners are still most common.
	This is  due mainly  to  the better  support available  from said
	garments. Some ladies prefer front-loaders because the catch does
	not stick  in  the  spine.  The  use  of  jogbras  which  have no
	fasteners has also  been  highlighted  to  me  with  2 responders
	indicating that they wear these all the time.
	

	     3.  About  half  the  women  who  wear  rear  fastening bras
	belt-and-twist   while   the   rest  fasten   behind   the  back.
	Interestingly the majority  of  those  that  fasten  behind their
	backs have tried belt-and-twist and still prefer to fasten behind
	the back.  68%  of belt-and-twisters started out using the behind
	the  back  technique.  Indeed  reports of  thinking  that was the
	"Adult way to do it" for the behind the back method or "cheating"
	for the belt and twist method were common. 
	
	     4. Of front loaders the results show that one or two arms in
	first,  behind the back is most common. The responder who crosses
	her  arms  in  front  first  is  joined  by  only  one  other who
	occasionally does it that way.
	
	=================================================================
	
	     So  that's it.  If you have any comments  on  this survey or
	need any advice about starting your own please feel free  to mail
	me.  Also I would be  glad to hear  from any  responders who have
	been spurred to try another method since reading of the survey.
	
	             THANKS AGAIN TO ALL THAT RESPONDED.
