Yeah that's America bashing, and Europe's laws and customs have no bearing on our own. I am all for women showing off their ta-tas, and I am all for criticizing our laws and customs but Europe's feelings on the matter are irrelevant. Europe's attitudes are likely to shift due to recent demographic changes anyway.
And yes I am aware that America bashing has no bearing on the weather, and I promise not to blame anything going on in this thread for the heat wave that's supposed to hit this weekend.
is there a law where we can't bash America??? lol.
Man we've turn into a bunch of cry baby punks when you're not allowed to criticize without the oh so intelligent "leave" response.

Well now you're getting in to politics. Just because I point something out doesn't mean I think there oughta be a law. But some of these folks might be happier in Europe.
Very simple..Since she wasn't at a topless beach..then no..she should have known that she couldn't bathe topless because it was NOT a topless beach.
In Europe it's not a big deal.
Where she was sunbathing it wasn't the place to be topless.She should find out where you can sunbathe topless and go there to do it.She has that right.
Yeah...but;
The problem seems to be how to define "nudity". To HER mind, she wasn't nude. Nude being different from "topless". To HER mind, she was dressed no differently than any of the men there, who weren't wearing shirts, and I see her point.
The beach was a "no nudity" beach. She didn't think she was nude.
IMO, I don't care too much one way or the other. If people don't want a topless beach, than rewrite the local laws to say so. Good luck making the men cover up though, because that's what would be fair.
The most American thing in the world is to complain (common sense pamphlets anyone?) and to riot (Boston tea party) and so on. This love it or leave it crap is blatantly ignorant of our beautiful, messy history of being complainer who work to change what they don’t like.
Yes. Our founding fathers wanted us to constantly question, complain and protest, "in order to form a more perfect Union". Seems that's been lost on a lot of people today.

Since our founders fought a war to be independent from England they probably also would've rolled their eyes at people who had a fetish for Europe's supposedly elevated sense of morality. Might've even offered them free passage across the pond. Or some of them would've anyway. They were no more monolithic of mind and viewpoint than those wretched American prudes of today or those delightfully "free of sexual hangups" European folks from the land of the burkini who so many seem to admire but have no desire to live with for some reason.
