Aside from men being horny in the 1800s, and this being a holdover since that time, is there any actual reason why this hasn’t changed?

If society was dominated by women, would this be more likely to change?

I was sweating my ass off hiking in the hot sun, and the question has been bothering me all day after my top soaked through with sweat.

      I think everyone should be allowed to go shirtless. They ain’t hurting nobody. Also, I would if I had a fit body to show off.

        Everyone should be allowed to, but i also wish they wouldn’t. Not a fan of nipples in public.

          This is precisely why I choose to travel to countries where, for either cultural or climatic reasons, it is customary to have more skin covered.

          Why are people so obsessed with nipples. They are not particularly different from other body parts
