Topless women: we've been stripped of rights

San Francisco - The sight of men wearing bras or bikini tops hardly causes a ripple in San Francisco anymore, but today a group of guys did so for a different purpose - to demand that women be allowed to legally bare their breasts in public.

Not because men want to see them, the protesters said. For justice.

They probably don’t hang out with the kind of men that would look at their chests...

hang out? Haha.......you made a pun!

No, it’s just fine as those most likely to participate are also least likely to look good doin’ it.

Let's try again:

The event was organized by the Raelian Movement, which according to its website believes "that life on Earth was the result of scientific creation by an advanced, extraterrestrial human civilization, the Elohim, mistaken for gods in the Bible."

Coming soon to a worldview near you. Bank on it.

Imho, this is part of the homosexual agenda.

Stuff like this makes me wonder what's so bad about burqas.

Good God, these people are stupid...

[TheOldLady]

Hmmm... men in burqas... Maybe the men in the picture.

[CharacterCounts]

Don’t these people have lives?

[HungarianGypsy]

There are many men I would prefer not to see topless, too.

[Slings and Arrows]

A definite improvement.

San Francisco is our Sodom & Gomorrah

From 2006....

Where Did All the Children Go? In San Francisco and Other Big Cities, Costs Drive Out Middle-Class Families

Though, I'd argue, it's not just about money.

“Not because men want to see them, the protesters said. For justice.”

Fly breasts, for great justice?
*egads*
Another “All Your Base” reference murdered brutally.

[Darksheare]

Probably not, hence why they are doing this kind of thing.

You obviously haven't looked at the pictures. It's more worthless WITH the pictures.

[gitmo]

They arrested the guy painting the breasts? What law did he break?

[windsorknot]

Luna Baron: an appropriate name. So many battles, so little time; this one certainly ranks at the top for many Americans.

I turned beet-red when my doctor(A man)examined me to see if everything is fine. I could feel my face burning!

SF Talk show host, Ronn Owens, was advocating for equality in toplessness. Best line from any caller this morning:

I wouldn't want my daughter going out topless, but I'd like to look at your daughters topless.
