I am not denying the existence of the things you said. I am questioning why we still cling to them in the year 2026. Whose idea was it to categories a woman's infant-feeding organ as a secondary sex organ? That was a mistake to begin with, and one we could correct rather than doubling down on it.

As for the Salem Witch trials or hangings or whatever went on... We really ought not to be basing current standards of bodily etiquette on any such historical nonsense. People in those times did a lot of abhorrent things.

We could solve a lot of these "problems" by not referring to a person as "nude" when clothed from the waist down. Or when wearing a shirt that happens to be mildly revealing.

Well... Men's breasts aren't triggered by Prolactin, Oxytocin, by pregnancies, etc.
I don't think it's a mistake to consider them part of the Reproductive system at all... also considering how often Uterin Cancers are connected to the Mammary Ones.
I really don't care that much, but saw this particular anti-breast post and found it funny. 😊
