In modern bras the breasts are ‘evened out’ and lifted away from the chest wall - the garment is also constructed in order to push the breast tissue toward the center of the chest to create ‘cleavage’ and to thrust forward and ‘stick out’ - they are surrounded by wire(!) to ensure they are held in that position (i.e. by literal force)! The top is left to show and move (i.e. ‘giggle’) while the bulk of the fat and tissue is propped-up, lifted and presented more roundly, uniformly and evenly and in a more visually obvious way to onlookers. Bras make all breasts look the same as all other breasts i.e. they hide the reality of real breasts by disguising the fact that most breasts are uneven, sag, point down/outward, etc. Essentially bras are constructed to mold breasts into an ideal - for others to view and judge.

But the reality is breasts don’t need wire - they don’t need lifting and they don’t need to be evened out. Breasts should be stabilized for comfort and held close and tight to the chest to take strain off the ligaments and skin that hold them on the chest wall. So if bras were really designed to support breasts - rather than make them appeal to the male gaze - they would actually make them look smaller and less visually obvious and ‘appealing’.
