and breasts would lose their attraction, to a great extent. That would be good for kids to accept after a period of fascination they would just know it's normal. But a woman's breast while covered, holds a mystery all of their own. It adds to sex to finally see them free, if they were uncovered a great deal I would think that women would lose some of their mystery. I never thought I would say this, but please don't do it!

breasts are exposed 24/7 and it's just the norm. Males aren't preoccupied with staring and gushing over them at all. These simple milk glands are as eye-catching as a finger, a toe or a kneecap.
For myself - a male raised with the notion that breasts are sexual tools meant to entice prospective mates - I still want to look when the opportunity presents itself. Touching them is a matter of consent or invite - as I'm sure it is in the cultures where breasts swing free.
The sad fact for we civilized folks is that we're prisoners of our own prudish, religion-driven customs. Personally, I say "shirts off!" to the ladies. I can't believe the compulsion that drives my wife to harness up and cover up even to go sit on our very private back porch. Good little Catholic gal!
