WHAT DOES SHIRTLESS MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Shirtlessness

Shirtlessness is the state in which the upper torso is exposed due to the lack of a shirt or other top. Many cultures treat female shirtlessness, known as toplessness, differently than male shirtlessness, known as barechestedness. In industrialized societies, it is much more common for men to be barechested in public than women, as exposure of the male pectoral muscles is often considered to be far less taboo than of the female breasts, despite some considering them equally erogenous. The topfreedom movement challenges laws that forbid females to go topless in places where males are permitted to be barechested, arguing that such restrictions amount to gender discrimination.
