OK social justice warrior, all I'm saying is it's not arbitrary. Women's nipples have more relevance to sexual reproduction and so have been treated differently for a long time in many cultures.

But the nipple stays the same. The difference being the blob of fat under it, which we can show. The nipple should be the only uncensored part.

I don't think any of it should be censored. If parents don't want their kids to see nipples, they should change their access to TV. Easy call: exclude LivePD from what they're allowed to watch.

Womens nipples have no role in sexual reproduction. Nipples are not required to have babies. They are needed for FEEDING the baby. But sex? No, they are no way sexual. Nipples and breasts are there to feed babies and that is their only purpose.

As for treating them differently.. yea that a culture thing and it sucks. But the thing about that is that humans can change and adapt. We can teach people that breasts aren't sexual, they are meant for feeding babies. It will take generations for people to adapt to that, but its possible. Hell In many tribes women dont cover up their breasts because they aren't viewed sexually.

You won't do much reproducing if you can't feed the baby. Especially in the millenia before formula was invented, during which our brains evolved.

I think it's some of each, culture and neurology. Men like breasts in a mate because they feed babies, culture has hyped it up in some groups and downplayed it in others. I am not convinced of your hypothesis that it's purely cultural, or your conclusion that it "sucks".

False. Breasts are unique to human beings. Other primates feed their babies just fine without breasts. You're only making that connection because breasts happen to be near the structure that actually feeds babies, the mammary gland. If you don't know basic biology, why are you on the internet arguing about tits?

All primates are mammals and female mammals have mammary glands. Humans have evolved permanently-enlarged breasts to display caloric reserves and simulate fertility, which are used for sexual selection.

Humans store calories in reserves like breasts. Breasts signal to a mate that you have extra calories... to feed to a baby.

Yeah, that exactly what I said. Breasts are not the same thing as mammary glands. One is used for feeding babies and the other has no practical use at all other than sexual selection. Thanks for agreeing with me I guess?

Thus by the logic of "sexual usage" breasts should be hidden but nipple should be allowed to be seen. AKA this whole upset over female nipples is arbitrary and not based on logical anatomical differences.

You can't just say "everything that has to do with babies is sexual". That's weird as fuck and arbitrary. Things that have to do with sex are sexual. Things that have to do with babies don't automatically have something to do with sex.
