men vs women nudity

I am curious to know if Caucasian men don't want to feel empowered/free by wearing sexy, skimpy, tiny clothing and underclothing (eg beach string bikinis, tangas, skimpy gym shorts, skin tight leggings, crop tops to name a few) like Caucasian women do for empowerment/freedom? all these clothes...

a somewhat serious question, when (if at all) in North America be a time when men would have societal freedom to wear any type of underwear/swimwear (even if it includes briefs, bikinis briefs, thongs, tanga briefs, g/c strings, etc) without being judged by the society (both men & women) as GAY...
