Why a National GoTopless Protest day?

Gotopless.org claims constitutional equality between men and women on being topless in public. Currently, women who dare to be topless in public in the US are repeatedly being arrested, fined, humiliated, criminalized. On Aug 23rd, 2008, topless women will rally in great numbers across the USA to protest this gross inequality in the law and will demand that they be granted the fundamental right to be topless where men already enjoy that right according to the 14th amendment of the Constitution (please see our exact legal argument on the right to be topfree for women under "14th amendment" in the column on the right.)

Why this protest in August? In 1970, Congress designated August 26 as Women's Equality Day "as a reminder of women's continuing efforts for equality". It is indeed on August 26, 1920, after a 72-year struggle, that the 19th Amendment to the Constitution of the U.S. was finally ratified, granting women the right to vote nationwide.

What will happen that day? Across America, topless women and men will peacefully rally in the streets, parks, on the beaches of their towns and cities. Activities will start at NOON local time in each city
Topfree performances will be given by various artists to honor Women's Equalitly Day and to convey how natural it is to be topfree for women in public just like it is for men. Please write to us if you are an artist who would like to participate in one of our shows.

Great. Time to watch a bunch of aging hippies who've probably been going bra-less for the last 30 years take off their tops. Woo-hoo.

I'll pass.

Boobies are boobies....Some just hang a lot more than others....

Re: National Go Topless Protest Day- August 23
 

Me too. I just don't want those saggy aging hippie to look better than I do.
My man boobs may be flappier.

Re: National Go Topless Protest Day- August 23
 

I'm pretty sure it remains illegal for the amount of accidents naked boobies will cause!

Re: National Go Topless Protest Day- August 23

Re: National Go Topless Protest Day- August 23
 

I've been to AUSTIN, TX: Hippie Hollow Park back in the day pretty hot then,maybe not so hot now.

Re: National Go Topless Protest Day- August 23
 

Nothing anywhere near me, oh well.

Re: National Go Topless Protest Day- August 23
 

Um, actually I have. But not for 20 years or so. And back then there weren't too many sagging boobs, mostly fat single guys laying on the beach hoping to see nekkid chicks.

There were also a few lesbians. :tongue:

Re: National Go Topless Protest Day- August 23 (NWS Link included)
 

I'll be on my way to Venice beach!

If they are doing it for the sake of walking around topless for one day and just happened to be smart enough to get some legal arguments for the sake of showing they are topless and smart at the same time then I would love to join them.

But for the looks on the web page it seems like they are stupid enough to think that they are actually going to acomplish something... honestly i would hate to go to the beach and see some fat girls topless (im not saying i would be an ass to them or anything... im just saying under no circunstances i want to see them naked). You want to be naked? go to a naked beach... or Amsterdam they dont give a fuck about anything there.

If going topless was just for places like the beach,lake, swimming pool, it might not get too bad but, people always push the envelope,so businesses would have to get new signage like No shoes,no shirt ,no top?, no service, lol.
