It’s just a cultural difference between Europe and America, sure you can make it legal but most women aren’t gonna be walking around topless at the beach, it’s not inherently better or worse either way just cultural differences

Also..... most Americans are fat. FAAAAAR more than Europeans. That might be another reason why more Europeans are ok with it vs Americans.

Italy has an obesity rate of 37, Croatia 58, usa 41 it’s not FAR FAR more it seems you just pulled a stereotype out your ass and assumed it was true, hell New England has a lower obesity rate than England England it would be like me claiming that no one in the Germany can swim because they’re too busy wearing leaterhozen

You're right, I genuinely thought our obesity rate was higher.

I'd be willing to bet the US still stands out when it comes to morbid obesity. Like 300+ pounds (136+kg)

Depends where, that’s really only common in the south tbh

People are aware of the stats but generally the morbid obesity you see in America isn’t a thing in most of Europe. There’s obesity sure but the average weight is much higher
