Women Want to Bring ‘Go Topless Day’ to Boston in August
Boston Magazine ^ | August 6, 2013 | Steve Annear

Posted on 08/10/2013 7:56:34 AM PDT by ConservativeStatement

There’s a 50/50 chance that the Boston Common could become the stomping grounds for a group of topless women later this month.

August 25 marks national “Go Topless” day, where women from dozens of cities across the country will bare it all in public—some risking arrest—to advance a woman’s right to walk around half-nude. The annual “Go Topless” day always falls around the time of Women’s Equality Day, which marked the passage of the 19th Amendment, in 1920, allowing women to vote. Now, the movement is trying to reduce the gender gap when it comes to accepting that females have as much right to walk around shirtless as their male counterparts.

My guess is the place will be filled with lesbo hogs.

A "Lesbo-Hog-a-Phobe"? Please go for sensitivity training at your local Lesbo-Hog Annex. The State demands it.

Anyone of the ladies could eat crackers in my bed anytime. :-)

She said when she is topless in public, the reaction from most people has been 'very good,' and they seem supportive of her initiative, both men and women alike.

There is a difference between humoring a crazy topless lunatic, and loony, smelly, sweaty, slob.

lesbian until graduation


That’s a shame. Not as much demand for them after graduation.

It's been far too long since I vacationed in Boston and saw the "sights".

I'd guess that you wouldn't really want to.

After reading enough *Not a Ping List* pings, it's blindingly obvious that the very ones you DON'T want to see do something like that are the ones who are most likely to do it..

Unfortunately in liberal Mass it will be a bunch of burned out hippies and other rabid old age or over weight libs.

Now Diane Lane, yeah, I could get behind that!!! Interesting choice of three there though, I don’t see the connection between Derek and Lane with Hathaway as there are a few years difference in their ages.

I am an equal opportunity EnJoyer!

A little white gas works wonders. After the burning stops. :-)

Thank you sir. Unsung American heroes should never be forgotten. TRUE ones, not today's version where "heroes" are merely coincidental victims.

(and if you get a chance, check out the youtube vids from the History Channel)

Back in the late 70s, I saw some pretty amazing women on the French Riviera.

I have zero respect for a woman who wants to go topless in public. I’d shun them, treat them like hookers.
