You don't get it. YOu can't make some rule for one woman or one man. Well you can if you go to a private pool. Do your swimming there. Simple stuff until the left finds somebody they think is being picked on and starts going batsheet crazy.
Your posts are even worse than usual in this thread.
One can only suppose how you would behave if any women in your life suffered the same fate.
Learn some compassion.
Public park pools have rules, you must cover up. Even children and babies have to be covered. Why couldn't she just wear a loose tank top with her swimming shorts?
I feel badly that she's had to suffer through cancer treatments but I think she's just looking for attention by refusing to cover up.
How bizarre. Without breasts, there's nothing to cover up, as her picture clearly shows.
"A woman who survived breast cancer after a double mastectomy has been told by a government parks department she is not allowed to swim topless. Jodi Jaecks underwent the surgery in 2011 which has left her flat-chested, with two thin scars where her nipples once lay. The Seattle Parks and Recreation department has refused to let the 45-year-old swim topless, despite suffering from nerve pain across her chest and neck, a common side effect of mastectomies.
You don't have to carry around a card saying you had breast cancer, when you are a woman who no longer has breasts. Did you even read the link that includes her picture? This women has no breasts!!! She doesn't even have nipples!!! That is the only woman referenced in the title of this thread and my OP.
Right and rules aren't made at in public areas for ONE person. Why can't you understand that? Society has rules to abide by whether you agree with them or not. If you don't blow up a little turtle pool in the back yard and swim away without your shirt on if you so desire.

Coming from you that must mean I'm more correct than usual.

Really? At your public park pool males have to cover their chests?
You can't swim for exercise and wear a loose tank.

No more bizarre than covering breasts. It is a social thing designed to cut down on sexual provocation or activity. Why globules of ducts and mostly fat have such fascination and such treatment could be considered odd in itself. In most cases, it wouldn't be a hygiene issue.
If she is a female most of the western world say breasts should be covered because it is proper. Bound to be certain garments that would help with the pain issue. I am not so sure swimming, which increases sensitivity may be the right activity. Though it is good safe exercise.
When I visited Denmark, I found out that at the beach or pool, some people wear bathing suits, some don't, some women wear only the bottom of a two-piece suit.

And nobody gives a damn one way or the other.
Seems like the best way to approach it.
Some societies are much better about addressing the "body" than others.
It looks like the difference between the dogs and the people in Copenhagen is that the dogs can do it any time they want to.
revolting, to say the least.
