Men can take their shirts off for hot days and exercise. Why can't women do the same in 2025? (pawb.social)

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.

In Australia nudity depends on the context. Like it's probably ok at the beach, but less ok most other places.

Not having boobs myself... isn't it uncomfortable just having them swinging around everywhere like if you're exercising?

    really depends on the person and the activity. i'm not particularly busty, and i'd rather wear a sports bra if i'm doing jumping jacks or something, but it isn't really needed for my physical comfort just about any other time.
