And if I were younger (i.e., pre-six years of breast feeding), I might have joined them...
Topless Women Take Over Central Park
There are many reasons for a group of people to march in public, from civil rights to parades to spontaneous musical-like dance routines. But perhaps no reason is more honorable than women marching for their right not to wear a shirt (possibly NSFW, 'cause there are, you know, boobs).
***I do this at home quite frequently when the kids are at school.***
Yesterday, topless women in New York marched through Central Park on National Go Topless Day to the dulcet tones of "I'm Every Woman" by Chaka Khan, a song equally applicable to feminists, homosexuals and women without shirts. They were protesting for constitutional equality between men and women on being topless in public.
"We're all here for the same reason -- to allow women to be free in the park like men," said organizer Sylvie Chabot.
*** Will they march next for urinals in the bathrooms?***
Marchers also joined in the event in California, Illinois, Florida, Ohio, Oregon and Hawaii. In New York, it's already legal for women to be topless, thanks to a 1992 court ruling, but the hope is that one day women across the country will be able to enjoy the same freedom.
Soldier on, topless ladies, soldier on.

I don't know that I would go topless after three kids, even though my hubby would be happy to see me do so...
That being said, if I must endure male mammaries, why is it illegal for me to go topless when men can do so with impunity?
Sexism.
I don't really like seeing men topless. At the beach, okay (but seriously, if their boobs are a "B" cup or larger...put on a shirt!). But I don't like seeing men out jogging topless even if they ARE buff.
Mmmmmmmmmmmmmm bewbz.....LOL
Everyday is Topless Day at our house. She drops 90% of her clothes as she comes in the door. She hates being dressed. And me? I'm the opposite. I'm constantly overdressed.
There's nothing worse than moobies (man boobies).
I'd like to have the balls (?) to go topless, but I can't stand the idea of dirty old men looking at me.
Ewwwww.
'Cause at that point, THEY'RE the ones enjoying it, not me.
Nudity is funny, though. We get so hung up on it but when you think about it, it's no big deal.
