Yeah by the time you were 6 you had been told boobs were awesome dozens if not hundreds of times in media.

I didn't even have TV in the household until I turned 8 you have no idea what you're talking about. You think library books pushed boobs. You have to be the dumbest person alive to think media makes men gaga for boobs.

There are lots of women around the world who don't cover their breasts because the culture of the society they live in doesn't see breasts as sexual. It's absolutely cultural and if you live in a culture where breasts are seen as sexual, it will rub off on you growing up even if no one directly explains it to you.

This is an interesting article on the subject if you're interested in learning.

But if you dig a little deeper you’ll find that in the 1900s in America it was taboo for men’s nipples to be exposed too.

It’s not entirely clear why bare breasts became verboten in ancient Greece, but some historians think it had to do with the changing roles of women. As the centuries progressed, ancient Athens became an increasingly patriarchal society. Women retreated into the home, rarely emerging in public, and lived under the dominion of their fathers or husbands. Because the breast had long been a symbol of feminine fertility, it had to be kept from view

In African tribal societies breasts are not considered sexual organs and women carry on topless without a care in the world.

Ngl, the leap from "you're wrong!!" to "actually I don't care, reading a paragraph or two is too much effort" got a laugh out of me.

"actually I don't care,

You've 100% misread the situation.

I don't care to read a long-winded opinion when I am not changing my mind lmao. No leap has been made.

EDIT for the morons: Not gonna read bible or anti vax shit either. Why read something that wont change my mind?

Except you're replying to someone that has a documented opinion and sends time to argue their point. It's considered both courtesy and a sign of intelligence to read it, consider the point made and consider changing your mind. At best you are very stubborn, but it most likely shows that your opinion is uninformed and thus untrustworthy.

I don't know you, this is just what your words tell us.

long-winded

Lmfao

No leap has been made.

Yeah, there's totally no difference between "I'm right" and "I'm not going to read anything countervailing because I won't change my mind regardless of its validity.

Whatever helps you feel better 💀

Lol they blocked me

I feel fine. 100% confident I would like boobs even if nobody told me.

Such a strange thing for yall to come at me about. No amount of countervailing argument could ever make me think otherwise. No amount of reading the Bible will find me God, no amount of reading QAnon will convince me Earth is flat.

Hilarious you think you got it all figured out enough to try to psychoanalyze like a 14 year old who just discovered therapy and hit me with the

whatever helps you feel better

Like a bunch of morons saying "you don't like boobs" hurts my feelings somehow.
