I used to get really angry about bad drivers, but since I've stopped riding my bicycle everywhere I don't notice them as much.
Mostly I guess I see the bigger immoralities of the world so clearly front and center that issues of precisely how much of the body we can show seem pretty trivial. I mean, the US has spent literally trillions of dollars on wars which, the Pentagon admits, have accomplished nothing -- though we know for sure that they have ruined millions of lives. This was instead of spending money in ways that would clearly benefit people.
Religion is the least of our worries at this point.
Yes the causes are mainly economical. Religion is a mere symphony used to gather more warriors.

Absolutely. And I think this is largely intentional on the part of those in power. The US fights the evil influences of those terrible foreign cultures -- because they are different! -- and thus we don't have to see the evils that the US does everywhere. We Americans are as guilty as anyone, so it's easier to point fingers at headscarves.
But I have decided that rules against men swinging their dicks in public are terrible impositions on freedom. So I am going to make Hane's All-Cotton Briefs the new symbol of oppression! Off with the briefs!
Notice: my bold is the symphony of justification I told you about in the previous point.
If the interest demanded; the symphony would change. The American foreign policy is a prisoner of interests; the moral laws that the founding fathers of the U.S claimed just evaporated in the face of interests.
For men; I say let them swing their dicks as long as they are not causing any psychological or physical harm
