Well, the very fact that (some) males complained about topless women in places where topless MEN were accepted started the movement in the first place.

Thank you! I don't get this argument "well men wouldn't complain" ...but like, they definitely would and do. If all men agreed and supported women in this, the movement wouldn't have to exist in the first place.

Call me old fashioned or too uptight - I'd rather have neither men nor women run around half-naked anywhere but secluded places or their privacy, but that's just a personal preference and I wouldn't want to outlaw it either way. It's just unfair to see it as acceptable when men do it, but not for women.

Otoh I don't get my knickers in a twist when I see a dressed up woman's nipples through her clothes which apparently still is scandalous behavior in most US places.
I couldn't agree more, what you said is exactly how I feel as well. I personally dress rather modestly, not for any religious/ideological reasons but just because I think it looks better than showing everything. If being hot in the summer is a concern, light and flowy clothing (preferably made of natural fibers that "breathe") does a much better job than small, tight clothing anyway. And I'm not a fan of people walking around with everything on display, men or women. However I would never try to restrict a person's freedom to dress however they want because my personal preference is irrelevant to their freedom of choice. Especially not on such arbitrary grounds as gender. I also agree that visible nipples under clothing aren't a big deal.
