Women's breasts: how to show them correctly. Free The Nipple Promotions
What is all the fuss about, you ask? And we will explain to you that the female breast is considered no less than an instrument in women’s struggle for equality. Here clarification is required.
Now imagine how often on the covers of magazines, on television, or even in the yard of your own house in the summer you see a naked male torso. One has only to replace it with a female one, and we immediately get “action of a sexual nature” or “erotic content.” In other words, social norms dictate that it is decent for a man to bare his torso, but not for a woman. It is difficult to find any worthy explanations for this fact, except, perhaps, one thing: the female breast is a part of the body sexualized by society, elevated to the status of an object of desire for men. The latter are aroused by female breasts precisely as a fetish hidden from prying eyes, and it is men, as the main “consumers” of breasts, who dictate the norms for their display in public.
Women all over the world are protesting against such patriarchal prohibitions, intending, including through the freedom to show their breasts, to give themselves more complete freedom to control their bodies, which is closely related to the liberalization of strict laws on abortion. And, it must be said, the process of liberating women’s breasts is expanding geography and taking on the most unexpected forms. For example, New Yorkers are now officially allowed to walk around the city topless. Under the new rules, which have been submitted to the city police, a half-naked woman does not fall under an offense called “public lewdness.” If you're in New York in the summer, take advantage!

The neckline, in the modern sense of the word, appeared in the 14th century, in Burgundy, at the court of Isabella of Bavaria, who had a reputation as a dissolute and bad woman. The fashion for deep necklines on dresses has changed in the same way as the concept of what breasts should be.

In most European countries, from the second half of the 14th century, women began to proudly demonstrate their lovely forms. Diane Poitiers, the favorite of King Henry II, is one of the most famous sultry beauties of the French Renaissance. She was 18 years older than the king, but knew how to present herself advantageously and prolong her youth.
At the time, there were restrictions on images of naked breasts. It was considered appropriate to paint only ancient scenes or a nursing Madonna and Child, but artists often resorted to cunning. This is how contemporaries recognized the wives and mistresses of privileged persons in the images of goddesses.

The name of the mistress of the French king Charles VII, Agnes Sorel, is associated with the advent of fashion for women's dresses, completely opening the chest. According to the moral standards of the time, bare chests were more acceptable than bare legs or shoulders.
In Venice there was a double morality: the requirement was that noblewomen cover their faces, but the requirement did not apply to protruding breasts. The “wandering neckline” was popular, the invention of which is attributed to the anemone of that time, Lucrezia Borgia: it was not fixed, but so wide and free that it exposed one or the other breast in turn.
According to legend, the nobility at that time amused themselves by organizing beauty contests of dubious moral nature, the details of which would make even our contemporaries blush. The hems were lifted to the fullest and the breasts were exposed. According to the Goncourt brothers, in the competition for the most better breasts, which took place in Versailles, was won by the Queen of France, Marie Antoinette. This doesn't surprise me at all.

Modern fashion does not involve open breasts, however, women try to create a beautiful silhouette. For a long time bras are stuffed with cotton wool and even rolled up socks. In the late 40s, the American company Fredericks of Hollywood created special lingerie for women, the first push-up bras.
A special inflatable bra was developed, which was sold complete with a straw through which it was inflated to a certain size. But it had a serious drawback: it could begin to deflate at the most inopportune moment, and with a characteristic whistle. Funny cases were told when these bras exploded on an airplane or burst while swimming.

These days, few women dare to show off their lingerie style and bare breasts. For example, the scandalous Kim Kardashian, who walks the streets in inappropriate outfits, although accompanied by security guards. Or Kendall Jenner, who appeared in public wearing a transparent blouse over her naked body.
The fashion for bare or low-cut breasts did not last long, but it excited the minds of men who were lucky enough to live at that time. Studying history, we understand that when criticizing modern trends and the shamelessness of semi-secular shameless women, we are no different from the angry Chancellor Jouvenel Des Ursins, who once indignantly remarked: “How can the king in his own residence tolerate people wearing low-cut clothes, from behind which one can see women’s breasts and nipples. And how, in his apartments, as well as in the apartments of the queen and their children, many men and women suffer in an atmosphere of debauchery, sins and vicious relationships. Wearing such clothing is inappropriate and deserves punishment.” I think the king “tolerated” this with great pleasure.
