Default Why is Hinduism so tolerant of female nudity?

Nude bellies of women to be specific. What is the secret behind the nude bellies of Hindu women, who, in the presence of unrelated men, scramble to cover their heads while uncovering their bellies even more so?

PS: No of fence intended whatsoever. I am genuinely curious.

I'm guessing it's because they aren't gay.

Oh no, bellies.

Civalization is crumbling!

It's because in MOST societies, men rule, men like girls, and there you have it.

Most cultures tolerate female nudity more than male nudity because most cultures are run by men and most men are heterosexual. For instance, you can have all the nude women in a movie that you want in the USA, and it still can get an R rating. But show one penis, and the film gets an X rating.

Do you mean to say that Hindu females are nude? Do not be stupid.

Hindus / Indians are not beastly sexy like most of the others who are aroused even at the sight of the covered breasts of their own mothers and siblings
This has nothing to do with Hinduism or religion. the very fact that the ask er has used the world "Hinduism" shows his ignorance of the difference between religion and custom. May be he belongs to q religion that makes inroads into all his personal life
