  1. The Europeans came to Africa and were shocked and said it was wrong to see women’s naked breasts. They made African women cover their breasts.Then they changed their mind. Africans went to the Mediterranean and were shocked to find European women with naked breasts, and they wanted to uncover their white breasts in Africa too, although they are not made so well for the sun. These things change in different times and different places, even where Christianity is loved and respected. We are taught that Eve had naked breasts. Bikinis cover the breasts. I do not see the problem with bikinis
