Because female breasts are considered secondary sex organs. Men are bigger and stronger than women as well as more sexually driven. Topless women around men means more cat calling, sexual assault and rape. It works in some cultures, but could you imaging topless women walking around in most American inner cities. Nudity laws are going to get more conservative the more our demographics change in this country, or we're going to have some big problems like they do in places like Brazil or now Sweden.

It shouldn't have to be this way, but I shouldn't have to lock the doors on my car either.

its not that acceptable, when i see a guy without a shirt i normally think "put on a shirt" so i'm not as accepting of it as most people might be.

now, if you're at a gay pride parade, its acceptable to be shirtless.....other than that though lol

It's not about shame of the human body--it's about the power of the human body, which is not only a psychological, but a biological fact as well

Naked women create controversies and confusion...and allow weenie waggers to come out of the closet

When I worked Zuma beach and the 'bu.... we would cite for nudity all the time in a hidden pocket beach... when the woman being cited objected no one was around I would point to the top of the bluffs where men would be masturbating... and yes..we would definitely get them too...
Guys being uncontrollable dbags is still no reason to infringe on my freedoms.

So all you uncontrollable dbag men better protect me from all the other uncontrollable dbag men while I enjoy my freedom to be as sexually provocative as I want! Otherwise I'll pout, and write something nasty on twitter.

Why is it socially acceptable for men to be shirtless but not women? (generation, illegal)

Men don't have milk jugs under their shirts. A shirtless woman would be considered partially nude in our culture...

Practically every single one of your posts on this forum absolutely drips with hatred towards women. I have an idea. Why don't you join a monastery?

As if there aren't women who get "excited" when they see a man in good shape with no shirt on.
You seriously underestimate how men can be literally excited by female breasts. The other way around is not as true. If women start walking around in the streets with no shirt, no bras on, men won't even show up to work, young men definitely won't go to class, gamers will put down their consoles and start going out again !
