You can make the argument that toplessness on men is more predatory since it's so casually accepted and thus male body's are more sexually exploited. In my younger in shape days lots of women were turned on by my shirtless torso

At the end of the day its advertisers who will decide what os acceptable and a lot of brands don't want to deal woth nudity. The majority don't want to have to have a nuanced review of the content and on a love stream it be impossible to do so anyway .

Also all nudity is sexual in nature. A young heterosexual male going through puberty seeing a vagina would be aroused just as much as a homosexual boy seeing a penis. Or a hetero female seeing a penis vs a homosexual female seeing a vagina.

There are plenty of cam sites and porn sites these women can go to of they want to stream nudity. I am sire someone can create a middle ground between game streaming and women top less begging for donations. It's just that the top less site would only have donations and no advertising.
