Topless protests this Sunday

Is this really that big of a deal? Do women feel slighted because they don't get to go topless (it is legal to go topless in North Carolina)?

I am not posting links per the rules on nakidness.

I'm pretty sure it's just some crazy chicks looking for attention. What a load of crap. But, I'm happy for them to protest at my place of business if they feel the need. I used to bartend in a topless bar, I kind of miss the protesting...

I hit a couple of the links. I'm protesting against ugly tits! I say keep them covered up unless you got something to show.

Guys, the concept of topless protests is great. The reality is the ones who protest topless are not the ones you wish were protesting topless.

Same irony as the nude beach. The only people nude are the ones you don't want to see.

Yup. To see who won't be there, visit the "Chest" thread.

Absolutely. If you can get paid to show them why the hell would you walk down the street showing them for free?

IIRC, this is being organized by the Raelian Church. These people make PETA look sane, and Scientology look boring.

...personally I get the giggles out of NA attitudes on this subject. To be truthful, just heading out for a long cycle to the beach near me (50 km round trip), depending on the mood we will go to the "normal" part of the beach where topless is pretty well common but then again, might go to the nude part of the beach. While there are people there who you wonder why they want to peel down and averting your eyes is a good thing....there are also some very attractive people who do not mind if you admire their god-given gifts.

To me it is not sexually exciting any more than seeing a gorgeous 911 parked makes me want to go race or drive fast.....just like to see and also feel the freedom that being naked gives you.

North America....don't understand the evils of the female nipple or genetalia, albeit please don't bring it to a grocery store.
