Although in their defense, some require the men to be wearing shirts at all times aside from designated zones too. Which makes a bit more sense.
But the whole thing is odd in a way. The indecency associated with women removing their shirt is due to social norms combined with the thoughts of the person observing it. From a logical standpoint, we should be locking people up for being perverts instead.
Laws are funny.
