I've always said it, and perhaps it is a little sexist, but I don't want to live in a society where seeing a woman's bare breast is common. Part of what makes them so cool is their elusiveness.

I wonder if they wore veils, and not blouses, if eventually they would complain about us sneaking a peek at their eyes, saying " Hey , my breasts are down here" versus the current "Hey, my eyes are up here"
Almost certainly.
These things are based on cultural norms and what we become used to, after all.
Back in the day nobody got weirded out by topless African tribeswomen.
