Why ladies who don’t wear bra shouldn’t be criticised – Nigerian actress

Nigerian actress and adult content creator, Amara Maduka, has strongly condemned those who fault women for choosing not to wear bras.

Her comments follow a viral incident on August 10, 2025, involving Comfort Emmanson, a female passenger on an Ibom Air flight from Uyo to Lagos. In videos shared online, Emmanson clashed with flight attendants and later with airport security, during which her breasts were exposed as she was forcibly removed from the aircraft.

Speaking on the issue, Maduka said, “I don’t think anyone should dress with ‘unexpected negative situations’ in mind. I believe you get the essence of whatever you expect for yourself in life. I dress to feel good and confident about myself. It doesn’t matter what anyone thinks so long as I’m covered up enough to not inconvenience others.

“As a woman who loves to let her ‘oranges’ hang most times, I get stares from some people, and I sense the judgment, mostly from women. However, I understand it’s not my job to educate everyone, and it’s okay for people to feel how they feel about things they can’t change; like me not wearing a bra.

“Criticising someone for not wearing a bra is ridiculous. Breasts are part of the female body as God intended. Why would breasts and nipples make anyone uncomfortable? Only a petty person would see something so natural, and feel the need to ‘judge’ it. Meanwhile, women should be appreciated more for their bodies.”
