Women want to walk around topless everywhere?

Interesting subject. How many women on this board would agree with the right to go bare-nipped whenever you felt like it, and how many men would want to see that as well? Keep in mind it would be just as many 90 year old overweight grandmothers as nubile young coeds, and how many traffic accidents would this cause?

:lol:, Yeah

Here's their website...

Though I am not a woman, I fully support their cause. In fact, I will volunteer my house as a place for the topless women to have their gatherings. Viva la revolution!

It will be far less attractive than any man is thinking right now. I definitely don't think this is an issure of sexuality.

As long as its in the same context as when men do it, fine.

I wouldn't do it all the time, but sometimes i just get sick of wearing my clothes, it's just too uncomfortable. Other times of course i prefer it, but i'm all for equal rights :thumbsup:

It has nothing to do with what they would look like, and everything to do with equality -- why can men go bare-chested but not women? This has always seemed arbitrary and unfair to me.

This would be a non-issue in most parts of the world. We North Americans are way too uptight.

Whatever... it's just skin. Although the adjustment will be hardest...ahem, most difficult for pubescent boys.

hmmm....
hopefully it doesnt backfire and cause men to have to keep themselves covored too... i dont wanna wear full body swimsuits :p

If it did happen boobs wouldn't be help (no pun) like they are now.

No need for tittie bars anymore, we see them all the time and they it would become old.:(

Sure. I'd even support people walking around stark naked, if it weren't for the dangers posed by those same people sitting on public benches and the like (I'd never take public transport again :D ).

It's just another attempt of us men to control women.

Personally, I think it would suck to know that a million other guys can see my SO's tata's just because she's hot. But that's just because I'm a possessive ass.

I'm all for equality. Hey, as long as I can see your SO's tata's too, I guess? ;)

I'm for doing away with clothing in general unless you want to wear it. Hey it gets hot in Texas and if I want to walk around downtown with nothing on but a pair of socks why not?

I am all for equal rights and believe it should be a personal choice of whether or not to go clothed in public. If a person wants to be nude I say let them. It doesn't hurt anyone. I would personally be opposed to my girlfriend walking around naked, but I believe she should have the choice of whether or not to do so. And in light of the idea of equal rights, I believe I should have the choice to be able to walk around butt naked if I want to

Ever hear of sun poisoning? From what I've heard it's not fun at all.

Pish posh. I laugh at the sun. Skin cancer you say? Ha!
But seriously I've only heard of that affecting the really young.

They should have the right to do it, but nobody is actually going to if they do.

Women can and have been known to walk around topless in Toronto. A case several years ago was won by a woman wanting to be topless at any time. I wouldn't say its a popular thing to do however, so there's no risk of titties getting *old* and *boring*. I think for the most part, people are just freely flashing now. Win, win. :)

I'm all for it! I have to agree with CityOfAngels about other guys seeing my wife's tata's. I'm a possessive ass too and my wife is the only hot woman in my neighborhood. No fair trade value.

I bet a lot of the tops that would be out are the ones you would rather see covered. Just like a large majority of the topless men are fat and hairy. Yeah fat and hairy women topless.

I'm a little too possesive here too, not sure if thats a good thing or a bad thing tho...

I went topless and nude in Mexico on my balcony. My husband loves to admire me being free with my body, and I think it turns him on to know that others like to look too.

I wouldn't do it, but if others want to, well then... knock yourself out.

for you who dont want to share your s/o's tata's with others....why is it ok for we "women in general" to share your beautiful (even if only in the eyes of your s/o) chests with the rest of the world?

Here in Ontario it is perfectly legal for a woman to go topless whenever she wants.

A woman names Gwen Jacobs was very hot one summer day and decided to take off her top in downtown Guelph. She was charge with indecent exposure. She fought it in court and the court ruled in her favour thereby allowing it throughout Ontario.

It made a lot of noice at the time but has been pretty much a non-issue since. Women have the right but very few, if any, actually partake of those rights.

My wife has an awesome set and I love it when she shows them off, it'd be awesome if she walked around topless all day. Hell it kinda gives me a smile to think about how many guys would be staring at her drooling because she's so beautiful. If some dude goes home and fantasizes about her who cares, everyone fantasizes about someone else from time to time, no harm done to anyone so what's the big deal.

Of course my wife might disagree, she can be sensitive about showing off her body sometimes...

As long as you all don't mind me staring, which I WILL DO, then all power to you. Also, dont' come crying to us when you get raped, because mark my words, if toplessness became widespread, you'd see a dramatic increase in rapes too.

if they want to do it, do it. and for you guys who are saying "i don't want other guys seeing my girlfriends tata's" maybe you should find another girl if she'd be walking around topless with no regard for your feelings? Its not like its compulsory...it just gives them the option.

I doubt it.

Rape isn't about the woman being topless or wearing the skimpy clothing. It's about power. The rapists power over the woman. How many times do you hear about a woman being raped on a jogging path, wearing sweat pants and a sweatshirt. Oh boy, that sure is sexy! :rolleyes:

Woman being topless will not increase rape. No way.

GIVE ME A MOTHERFUCKING BREAK... :rolleyes:

Rapists don't give a crap what statement they're making. They just get turned on my breasts and want to fuck the owner.
I can't prove what I said, but I'd bet money on it.

Simmer down, feminist.

I'm sorry, but i don't think i can trust you to speak accurately on behalf of all rapists. You have no idea what you are talking about. How does the sex crime rate in america compare with the sex crime rate in europe, where toplessness is much less of an issue?

I'll take that bet. I could really use the money.

Wait, are we betting Canadian or US money? Hell, I don't care.

Basically, youre wrong. You're so very wrong. But I don't care that much to prove it to you, so I'm not going to come back with thousands of links on articles about rapists and their mindsets.

oh please....do any google search on why men rape and its always "the need to dominate and control and humiliate"

those same searches will also tell you that the claim of a woman looking sexy and got raped is LAME and not the reason most men rape.

dramatic increase in rape my foot!!

DITTO!!!!!

:lol: Now that's funny... (If you were talking to me, anyway.)

I seem to remember that women in Winnipeg Manitoba won the right to do this about 6 (?) years ago. A woman was arrested for walking down the street with mamaries swinging freely, and beat the case on the grounds that "men get to do it, why can't it?".

On that note, I have yet to see any women in Winnipeg exercising this privelege. :(

Cheers!

Its just an opinion. You're right, I don't know the psychology. I don't know the mind of a rapist. I have no stats. But I do believe that there would be an increase. I think you all have too high a regard for the human mind.

But I don't think that looking to Europe is a defense of your argument. Especially if you're an American. There's almost no cultural comparisons between the European and Americans. Just because German women or Spanish women go topless without harm doesn't mean anything in North America. They're a totally different culture. We don't share that culture. A remnant might, but not the majority.

If it happened that toplessness was okayed in the courts, I don't think North America would change much. I just think the whole thing is a dumb argument made on behalf of radical feminists who don't have anything else legitimate to argue for. You don't need to go topless, and 95% of women never would if it was okayed. Those who argue for it are just bitter that "the man" has that hanging over the woman.

But you're right. I admit, I don't know the mind of a rapist. I concede that.

Let's keep this civil please. :thumbsup:



Why is it that some cultures have no issues with their women baring their breasts when other cultures think it is better to keep them covered? I believe that if women were allowed to bear their breasts in the United States, we too would soon lose the "uptight" attitude we have over a woman's body. I don't think we should have a double standard. If men can do it, a woman should have the same legal right.
