Because of global warming. You don't want your future kid sucking on some environmentally damaged nipple, do you?

The only reason I would agree that women should be topless...to raise awareness:

Because we as a "society" condone some imposing their will upon others. We as a "society" condone violence and aggression. We as a "society" believe that some people have a "right" to impose their personal interests and beliefs upon others. Specifically, in this case, a combination of a primitive religious leftover and the insecurity of others in addition to the above.

Women wants to get paid for revealing their personal features. If you make it openly legal you are removing one way a women gets paid.

Because bare women's breasts are highly sexually stimulating, and men's are not.

Check your pulse!

Perhaps it has already been stated in this thread but it is legal in most States for women to go topless anywhere that men can go topless. Here in Vermont public nudity is legal in most jurisdictions. Lewdness however will get you arrested.

Our society is so sexualized right now, we couldn't handle a bunch of topless women. It would be a mess.

Yes. Which is why push up bras, lingerie, and other assorted sexualized clothing sell like hot cakes.


Seriously, I love me some boobs and I don't mind seeing girls topless (legal in NY) but lets not pretend there is no difference between male and female genitalia/sex organs.

Just bc you men can't keep it together is no reason I should have to cover my boobs or go to jail.
