Why Breasts Matter: A Commentary on the “Free the Nipples” Movement
American Thinker ^ | 09/23/2019 | Sally Zelikovsky

Posted on 09/23/2019 8:02:49 AM PDT by SeekAndFind

There is a movement afoot to liberate female breasts and it goes by the name “Free the Nipples.” Apparently, our breasts want out. Out of our clothing, that is. That’s right. There is a spectre haunting America -- of clothes -- and women have nothing to lose but their shirts. So whadaya say? Knockers of the world, unite! Out with yesterday’s bra-burners (they’re so last century, anyway) and in with the Nipple Warriors!

Let’s face it, our girls just can't take the oppression and discrimination anymore: the frustrating bra shopping, the annual breast exams, the painful mammograms, the perpetual fear of nip slip, and let’s not forget, the fondling. Our girls go through so much. And so do we. Who hasn’t rushed home after a long day being strapped and trapped in a Maidenform, to rip off her bra and let it all hang out?

But, apparently, it’s not enough that our breasts are unrestrained in the privacy of our own homes. The nipple liberators have set their sights on the public square. They are determined to make the days of hiding in secrecy behind latex, spandex, and Playtex on Main Street U.S.A. a thing of the past.

Turns out, these bare-chested ladies have already successfully challenged a Fort Collins, Colorado ordinance prohibiting public toplessness! They must have quite the war chest because, after spending over $300,000 defending the ordinance and losing at the 10th Circuit, the city of Fort Collins decided it could not afford to continue to defend the law and threw in the towel. So much for all of that pot tax revenue…

And the movement is stacked against the opposition.

I’m slow today. I’m not getting what that has to do with the topic of this thread...

Another example of “Look at me! I’m ‘doing something’!” ... Except that from what has been offered during similar public displays for the most part conjures up visions of balloon animals.

This is a slippery slope that will lead to the legalization of full nudity in public. My response is it depends. I’m just sayin’

Why waste pot tax revenue? Why waste revenue period. It gets pretty cold in Ft. Collins, let's see them nipples at 20* and see how liberating it is. That said, stores and other places can prohibit toplessness and shirtlessness.

Topless is stupid, it removes the allure and seductiveness of the breasts. If they are seen all the time they become too commonplace. (Tell me if that is true.)

Works for me!

Except the majority of those who would, you wouldn't want to... and those you WOULD, won't.
