Warning, this may not be a great episode for the kiddos to listen to. On this episode we are going back to my ancestor’s roots in India to “cover” or “maybe uncover” the woman’s breast tax. Today’s day and age enforces all woman covering their breasts – as they are a thing of sexuality and promiscuity. However, this has not always been the case – in fact the obligation to cover or even the right to cover one’s breasts varied from time period & culture.
