There are plenty of places where young boys are subjected to breasts or nudity at a young age and don't react that way. Be it tribal cultures or places in South America or around the Mediterranean, they don't have a reaction to women the way men and boys in the U.S. do because they have been subjected to it all their lives.
You're claiming to know the thoughts of those males in other cultures. They may not be distracted by boobs because they are used to seeing them every day. Different cultures consider different things to be sexual or arousing. So how do you know what they are thinking, or the degree to which they notice or are distracted, when females of their culture dress in a way that accentuates the things that make them look sexy in their culture? It is still basic male biology to be visually stimulated by females....whatever your culture determines that stimulus to be.
The ND mom simply wrote that leggings were distracting to boys and asked if women might take that into consideration when choosing what to wear. If you think about it, nothing was truly wrong or inaccurate about either of those. She was ASKING women to consider....not demanding it, or calling for a dress code. The woman who wrote the article I posted was contending that the ND mom was not wrong and did not deserve the flaming she was getting on social media.
As a teacher, I took interest in the debate because I see and deal with it on a daily basis. Bottom line....the boys notice. And just like the girls should not be shamed for choosing to wear leggings, the boys should not be expected not to notice. They should be expected to be able to handle it with proper decorum, but not to not notice. Trust me, teenage boys are distracted when cute girls are wearing pants that leave very little to the imagination about what those body parts look like when not covered.
