As if the Naked Cowboy weren't enough... (York: legal, subways)

[Cida]

I presume most Manhattanites are aware of the guy calling himself the Naked Cowboy, who stakes out Times Square in his undies, with a guitar, for photo-ops. Seems like a nice guy. I was working for a place that had him come up one time - they were contemplating hiring him for a party.

However, to top that, there are now topless women in Times Square. They're painted in body make-up, like Demi Moore once did for her magazine cover. Very weird indeed.

FYI, women are legally permitted to bear breasts anywhere in public in NYC - that includes on the subways and in the streets. No body paint necessary

I would hope so! All of us getting them removed would be a nightmare.

What is more interesting is that it is legal for women to bare their breasts in public.

Sorry, I could not resist.

Except, Mathjak, wearing a bra-type top isn't the same thing as being bare-breasted! I have the feeling that others, like me, didn't instantly realized they were actually topless, due to the body paint.

It's odd that it's legal to be bare-breasted in public, considering that local TV channel even blur out excessive cleavage.

Is it legally for mothers to breast-feed in public?

Also, when I was walking through Time Square there were guys asking them if they could hold them (their boobies) for the photo op and they complied, albeit for a larger amount of money most likely. Wouldn't that make them prostitutes then? They're collecting money and I don't see any where for them to put it so they have to have a pimp around there somewhere.
