Glad you like them. This is the kind of thing I'm interested in, so I figured there would be others out there who would like it. Some people are entirely visual and don't care about stories without pictures, but I like both. I found these links over the course of years, with various search terms. One of the things I do now that helps is put blogs I find interesting in an RSS reader. This makes it easier.
One way the searches come about is to see a story, like the one below on Salon.com.
hxxp://www.salon.com/travel/feature/1998/06/04/feature
It features two women that visited the shrines in the Tongo Hills and were told they had to remove their tops to enter the shrine. I really enjoyed that story even though the girls didn't remove their bras, but I wondered if there was such a place that women were expected to be topless. So I did some research and found that it is a real thing. I found a handful of stories that confirm this, but I'm sure there are a lot more out there. These days I wouldn't be surprised if the locals set up a live web cam.
Below are some of the stories I found.

It seems that a lot of the women who go there are Dutch, not sure why. If anyone out there has something to contribute on this topic, please post.
