Chest another day in NYC
New York Post ^ | May 20, 2012 | CANDICE M. GIOVE

Posted on 05/20/2012 7:39:32 AM PDT by ConservativeStatement

This activist thinks women have the right to “bare” more than just arms.

“I want people to know . . . it’s legal for a woman to be topless,” Johnston said.

No one deserves to suffer a sexual assault.
Stupid choices in what a person wears when they leave the house does not make anyone "fair game".

Now, having said that, I will also observe that stupid people tend to experience more unfortunate events than smart people. Just sayin'.

“A woman has the right to be topless anywhere a man can be topless in New York since 1992,” she said.

I agree with this 'right' but suggest we pass a law that guys over 30 should not wear Speedos.

Agreed.

Any woman should be able to walk down any street in America completely naked in perfect safety.

That being said, it’s a bad idea to dangle raw meat in front of predators...

In a “perfect world,” every person would be safe from all forms of crime including robbery, rape and murder.

Unfortunately, we don’t live in a “perfect world.”

I guess she just wants men and women to be able to air their differences.

Seen one, you’ve seen them both.

Nonsense. "Community" is just that. You give up a little something and I give up a little something. If a woman gives up all sense of modesty, men are not obligated to give up their biological imperatives.

Quid pro quo.

That was too easy. All I had to do was type in her name and click “search”. She should keep her clothes on...and not even go bra-less.

I think there’s a little more to it than that. Otherwise there would be no law against men going around totally nude.

A few years back a naked woman was picked up by a couple of guys who then raped her.

Why was she naked?

She had just escaped from another rapist.

By your reasoning, the second two rapists were fully justified weren’t they?

You better look again. I think you were looking at the author, not the dancer. The shot from the back that is in the article looks pretty good to me!

Time to cover the boobs. Can’t show anymore than they have over the years. Why do people who protest think showing their boobs is effective? All people do is take photos and laugh. Guess you have to be that INSECURE that you could actually walk around like that. It’s so been done...
