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.

    … Because boobs are a part of the gender? Because they’re part of what makes you a woman? Stop comparing boobs to ankles, geez… Use you actual brain.

      So, any woman with a double mastectomy is no longer a woman? Damn, cancer keeps getting harder and harder.

        Part of, you also have your vagina? If not, you got your xx chromosomes? So no you’re still a woman, but you knew this. Wishing you a full recovery ❤️

      So a male breast is not part of the gender? Something beging part of what makes you a man or a woman certainly isn’t where we draw the line.

        I’m a woman. But hey, good luck with your problem. I see you wanted 0 criticism. Good luck 👍

        Edit

        I must note the irony of you wanting someone to grow up whilst getting very emotional real quick. Again, good luck.

          Looks like it’s you who are all emotional lol.

          And why should that be a bad thing BTW?

            Not really emotional over here, girl. I’m noticing that you’re fired up and won’t continue down that path. I understand why you got upset tho as I told you to use your actual brain. However it matters because you brought up maturity. You did, not me. But to look at it factually, without emotion, to answer your question. Men don’t have breast, they have a chest. And yes, walking without a shirt is pretty indecent,even if you’re a man. Ask yourself why it’s not common practice. It’s just indecent. However, it’s completely indecent for a woman to do so. To answer why, there are a few questions to consider. Firstly, what is gender and genetalia? Is it penis and vagina? Yes. Is it also ass? I mean, everyone has one… So is it genetalia or is it just dirty, and thats why we cover it? Is it okay to go without pants? I mean, it’s just a penis or a vagina? Stop being so horny? It’s just an ass. Are breast genetalia or is it a female signifier? If it’s neither and it’s just a body part, or if the fact that female signifiers should be allowed to be flashed either way: Why can’t a person grab your breast to get your attention? It’s just a body part. Can they grab you arm? That’s just a bodypart. I mean yeah, it’s not really convenient to grab a boob to get somebodys attention, but say it was. In a specific moment it was a way for somebody to get you attention. It’s not okay tho for somebody to touch it. Is it okay for somebody to stare at them? It’s just a bodypart. What if they stare at your hands? What if they’re shy and the only way to speak to you is by staring at your hands. Would that be ok? But what if they stared at your breasts? Would that also be okay? That’s why I conclude that women can’t walk around without a shirt just because they’re warm. However, since you asked peoples opinion, here’s mine: if a woman is wearing a sports bra, go ahead. Take off your shirt, just don’t take off your sports bra. And if you have a problem with not being able to walk outside with your tits out, maybe ask yourself what private parts are and if maybe… Just maybe you would like to not make other people uncomfortable by flashing yours… In this whole age of consent. But hey, girl, you do you
