        You’re right, tits and balls are identical. Men go topless in public and now its time to lose those bottoms too. Let the boys breathe. Pave the way, friend.

        Comparing women’s breasts to genitals feels sexist, but I can’t put my finger on why. Why are women’s breasts here considered as dirty as genitals? None of this really sits right with me.

        I don’t know many women who keep things in their bras, but I also don’t know many men who have breast pockets. Only, I do. They’re on every polo shirt.

        I’m just tired of the inherent meanness. A man can scratch his nipples in public no big deal. Women are forced into this constraining contraptions because of societal standards and occasionally have to adjust so they’re not in pain and its disgusting. Equally as disgusting as scratching at your genitals… But women have genitals of their own and often wear constraining underwear and restrain themselves from adjusting unless they’re in a bathroom.

        Balls and tits do not equate. Balls and Labia equate. Nipples are nipples on men and women.

        To each their own.

          I wonder what it’d be like to have just the boys hanging out, berries but no dingle.

          Like a tube top for my peen (cock top?) and the nuts just get to dangle, but then you’d need some system to cover your butt. I guess a thong could work with a larger front.

          But then you’d basically just be reinventing a goose egg through your underwear. I don’t think the cock top idea would be very lucrative either

          Ah well thank you for the thought exercise

            No joke, I have an idea. Its like a banana hammock style underwear combined with crotchless panties that women have. Have you seen the mens underwear that have the sock addition? We just need to alter the bottom part and add a crotchless aspect.

          The problem is thinking it’s okay to do in public. Go to the bathroom like anyone else.

          Also a polo shirt has a degree of separation, stuffing stuff in a bra holds it against you creating a pocket of sweat as well.

          I would have a problem with anything held against the skin, don’t stuff things in a sock either.

            Sure. Start going to the bathroom every time your nipple has an itch and we can start a productive conversation.

            The problem is the inherent sexualization of breasts which make you feel like it should be a dirty act for a woman to adjust herself.

            Breasts are not genitals.

              No, it’s the fact that you’re touching a sweat and bacteria infested place, you should wash your hands after touching your breasts or any other area like that. So if you do that in the middle of a hallway? How are you cleaning your hands before touching a door handle?

                Breasts are not a sweat and bacteria infected place any more than your hands would be on their own. No more than handling your phone day to day. You’re misinformed.

                  Maybe it’s because people keep touching things they aren’t supposed to…? If you don’t scratch your head, touch your armpits, pick your nose. Where’s the sweat and bacteria coming from?

                    Palms are a major source of sweat. Environment is a major source of bacteria. Live your life man and I’m gonna keep living mine. We don’t have to agree on this and it looks like we aren’t going to change each other’s minds. 🤷‍♀️
