My wife enjoys looking at me when I'm wearing jeans and no t-shirt, she finds that sexy. Plenty of people find certain expressions sexy. A lot of men enjoy looking at women's asses and find them sexual, are thong bikinis OK on the beach? Both ass cheeks are on display, most people are fine with that. A lot of people are seemingly OK with bras that barely cover anything but the nipple, with the entire rest of the breast on display. It seems that society is mostly fine with 90% of the boob showing, but as soon as it's 100% of the boob (or to be honest, when it's the nipple being shown) there's a problem. Except if you are breastfeeding, which is fine...because...reasons?well, in this world apparently everything is sexual to someone, but most are extremely niche and are not as much a threat.
There's little consistency. Men have nipples. Male nipples are fine. Women's nipples are not, unless there's a baby in close vicinity.

Sure it wouldn't be my fault if my feet get grabbed, or I get raped, but once it's happened will it really matter to me whether I was right or not? The damage, the suffering for me wouldn't go away just cause it wasn't my fault..
The fact that there is a high chance of random people grabbing your feet is not in any way your fault, and you shouldn't have to cover up your feet when it's the creeps who are doing the grabbing who are at fault and breaking the law.
The girl in the video was not inviting anyone to grab her breasts just by having them out. Only creeps and abusers seem to think grabbing them is OK.
