The whole thing is a massive diversion - and the notion that public displays of modesty are fundamentally at odds with their own purpose is hardly controversial. Despite it's current misuse, they're a classic example of virtue signalling, in any culture. Explicitly so when they take the form of religious commandments of virtue. We had them here as well, hence the pejorative use of the term puritanical.
While we generally take that sort of thing to be the opposite of pornographic, it is and was it's own fetish.
