Simple answer as far as I'm concerned. Yes, they should be allowed. I think it's odd when I see anyone in social situations without a shirt on unless they're swimming or exercising, but if a guy can do it, why shouldn't a woman be allowed to?

Plus, who doesn't like seeing breasts?

Haven't read the article yet but there was a time when the flash of a bare naked female ankle was enough to give young men high blood pressure and the lady a bad reputation. There was also a time when women danced the can-can without wearing underwear.... Societies sensibilities to what is proper and decent seems to move in cycles.

I honestly never understood why the can-can was considered raunchy until now.
