Equality is ALWAYS a noble cause.
Not this issue.

Well, obviously we disagree on this one. But why don't you go on down to the Keys and join them. It will keep you from meddling around in the important issues.

Their point is that women should be able to be top-free any place that a man can, like at the beach, riding a bike or, as evidenced in the planned march, walking down Key West's main tourist corridor.

Finally, some good news for a change!

Let me guess, no shirt, no shoes, no service, no bras ok?

Yawn,.... seen it all before. Here's ONE of the "protest marches" from Maine.
Topless Women Go Bonkers Over Inequality In Maine
Quote:
FARMINGTON, Maine — A forecast of sunny skies in April seems like the perfect time to put the top down. But a drive in a convertible isn't what some Maine women had in mind Friday.

Nearly two dozen of them marched topless through this college town to protest what they call a double standard that allows men to take off their shirts on a hot summer day. Many men joined the women, taking off their shirts and marching side by side. Joining the scrum were gawkers snapping photos.

It's already legal under state law for women to go topless in public in Maine. But the protesters in Farmington want it to become socially acceptable, too.

Couldn't help but get a little chuckle.

Ok, so its legal, but why on earth would they want to in Maine, seems a bit, well, chilly.

Oh I know I guess I viewed this from more of a comical POV. Sorry.
