In a few words:

Surely the maths are wrong?

Published: Thursday April 30,2009 by Mr_Bump

"The revolting figures means the average woman wears her bra seven times - equating to roughly two months - before discarding them in the laundry basket."
"...average of 15 bras."

Where is the figure of 2 months from?

If a woman wore her bra for ~4 TOTAL DAYS before washing (either consecuitively or alternating), then wore her next one etc wearing all 15 before putting the newly-washed first one on again, then she would need to wash each 5-6 times in one year (15 bras, 4 days each = 60 days).

The only way to get 2 months is if she only wore one bra in the whole year, which she washed every two months!
