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.
Guys in general like breasts and, until going topless is normalized, those who do will get looks. It’s awkward, I’m sure. Perhaps we need a topless pride parade so no one is singled out and we can jumpstart the change in social norms.
