Where exactly are these topless streams so I can make sure to uh... avoid them... in the future?
If you have an account, just go to one of their channels one time. Twitch will never recommend anything else again.
...Okay, it will sometimes recommend other stuff but you're never gonna be free of "thirst"-related content. Also, https://www.twitch.tv/directory/category/pools-hot-tubs-and-beaches here's the category you want ~~to avoid~~ :P
You can click the three dots on recommendations and there is a "not interested" option.
What is "thirst" in this context
Horniness. Sexual arousal.
They usually cover/conceal nipples, so you don't see everything.
In the list of "games", the top item is the "Just Talking" or whatever the category is called. Click that and try various sorting.
Honestly you can probably scroll the front page and find them if they're on, they'll have a ton of viewers.
Open a new browser tab and navigate to Bing. Type "topless streams" into the search bar. Spend a brief moment being disappointed that it seems like there's no topless streams on the internet. Then disable safe search and make sure you're not connected to a Bluetooth speaker or Chromecasting your screen (actually should have done that before the search, but it's too late, everyone knows you're a porn-seeking pervert, so you might as well just reconnect that Bluetooth speaker).
This woman mentioned in the article, Morgpie, has quite a bit of content on Reddit and otherwise if you're looking for some research material. She's got some very high quality educational videos...
