Have you heard the “bra burners” story in relation to the 1970s feminist movement?

If you want to read more about what “bra burning” is
here is a snopes article: http://www.snopes.com/history/american/burnbra.asp
I’m interested if anyone in the collective has a first hand experience with this story of bra burning. Why do you think it has persisted so long? To what effect do you believe that it has/had affected the feminist movement?
Also, I am interested in how much you think that pop culture continues to fuel or guide gender stereotypes or even stereotypes about feminists.
