It is funny how the guys say yes.

I was at the #freethenipple walk last year where the women went topless and the guys marked with black electrical tape their breasts.

If you look at it in a sexual mindset then no...If you view it in a freedom and equality mindset then yes.

But breasts are viewed sexually. We can't pretend that they're not. So is it appropriate for them to be on display around children?

@MetalGreymon If we make a big deal out of it then it will be a big deal to them.

Well sure. You can raise a child in any cultural norm you care to. Including pedophilia sexual contact. You can teach a child that it's no big deal but does that make it ok?

@MetalGreymon I get it...I go to a family friendly nudist resort and tbh, I would never take my kids there. I would not want to think about what others may be thinking seeing my kids and vice versa.

It is a tricky situation. We can say that a body is just a body and not inherently sexual all we want....but practically speaking that is not usually true.
