I've heard an argument that if it was commonplace for women to show their nipples, it would normalize. In the Middle-East women are covered from head to toe, because "men can't control themselves" even just from seeing a bare leg. In the west though, such thing isn't really a big deal, and hardly causes a man to persecute a woman.

I definitely agree that if something is on show a lot, people will become desensitized for it, just like sex and violence on games, movies and porn. I actually think it’s a good thing that nipples still have an effect and aren’t just made out to be just like any other part of flesh.
If you are interested, I wrote about the topic two years ago:
