Less than 100 years ago, it was once immodest and illegal for men to go around bare chested; even on the beach. But in the mid 1930s, most of the men didn't like it, they fought it, and they won. And that's been the social norm ever since. More information in the article below.
Now, there is a "top free" movement among some women to have the same right to be topless in places that men are allowed to be bare chested.
Thoughts?

“And the priest said, The sword of Goliath the Philistine, whom thou slewest in the valley of Elah, behold, it is here wrapped in a cloth behind the ephod: if thou wilt take that, take it: for there is no other save that here. And David said, There is none like that; give it me.”
- I Sam. 21
Thought for Today: Friday February 11:
As you wake up this morning, relax in YHVH’s peaceful Presence. Do not bring performance pressures into your sacred space of communion with YHVH. When you are with someone you trust completely, you feel free to be yourself. This is one of the joys of true friendship. Though He is the Lord of all lords and King of all kings, He also desires to be your intimate Friend. When you are tense or pretentious in your relationship with YHVH, He feel hurt. He knows the worst about you, but He also always sees the best in you. He longs for you to trust Him enough to be fully yourself with Him. When you are real with Him, He is able to bring out the best in You; the very gifts He has planted in your soul. RELAX! Enjoy your friendship with YHVH.
I am ranting about "science" lately because I really, really, REALLY NEED the folks representing me in #government to understand that Americans should have their #freedom back not because "science" says so. But because the CONSTITUTION says so. #tyranny

The two examples that I can quickly think of are:
Isaiah was instructed by Father to walk around "naked" for 3.5 years. David danced "naked" before the Ark. They were topless, but still had their loins covered.
Were they sinning? I don't personally believe so, but could be wrong.
Yes, we are instructed to dress modestly so that others don't come into temptation, but does this mean that a man should cover up his upper body not to sin?
I have to put my hand up and say that both me and my son swim with our shirts on, but that is not because I believe it is a sin and therefore cover up. We just don't want to lead others astray by our example.

I personally see nothing wrong with a woman being topless, but only in places where it is culturally acceptable. I don't expect current generations to embrace it, but future generations might be more open to it. In Canada and in some parts of the US, laws against women being topless in public have been removed. The only thing holding back a large number of women going topless in public is that it is not yet culturally acceptable.
The one area where there is lots of support for women being topless is when they are breastfeeding their babies. Babies have to be fed several times a day. It is not something that can be divided among breakfast, lunch and supper.
