Please explain how I misrepresented your words. I quoted what you said, word for word. You used an example that is grossly unfair. Skimpy clothing are still clothes that cover the female gentalia, a man walking out stark naked does not. That is not an equal example, which is why I brought it up. Had you said that both were naked or both were scantily dressed, then I wouldn't have brought it up.
Skin is not sexual or a reason to be stared at. Arms, legs, neck, stomach - none of those are sexual or wrong to put on show, and none give anyone else the excuse to stare at and ogle another person. And it's not fair to compare a man who takes his shirt off to a woman who does her - a woman doing that can face public indecency because of the sexualisation of the female breasts. Men do not share that.
And actually, so long as the genitals are covered, I don't see why either gender should be judged for showing skin. Skin is skin, everyone has it. But the truth is, it's more controversial and unacceptable if a woman shows skin than it is for a man.
