In many other parts of this globe, topless (on beaches) is considered natural and no one- other than the Americans- can be found staring or making lewd remarks. In these same cultures - it is also INPROPER to leave those beaches without a "cover-up".


So to those of you who are aghast by this -- as a travel tip, NEVER go to a French island in the Caribbean, nor the So Pacific and you best stay away from ANY beach that borders on the Mediterranean (regardless of Country).
There are a lot of customs in other countries that we don't have here. That doesn't mean we have to adopt them.
