Yes, that old patriarchal power dynamic works — if another man is with a woman, men typically won’t look. Someone else’s “property” and all. Don’t tread on other bro’s toes. Frustrating.
And also frustrating that we feel like we have to cover the nipples — I so get that! I have the same feeling of nervousness around that. But I am trying to challenge that, as well, because dammit, they are just nipples and no one would gawk a man’s nipples.
It’s a complicated matter, for sure. But thank you for your supportive comment!! I really appreciate it. ❤
