The Minneapolis Parks and Recreation Department voted Wednesday to roll back a ban on “showing female breasts” in city parks. Full nudity, however, is still prohibited.

The ordinance came into sharp focus after residents became aware that the Golden Valley Police Department used a drone to catch beachgoers breaking the law by going topless or nude at Twin Lake, WCCO 4 reported. The beach, known for being “hidden,” attracted visitors with the understanding that many freely bare their bodies.

“””99% of human beings look better with clothes on.”””

That might be true. But if I don’t do the scientific research how will I know for certain?

What does the precious Muslim community think of this?

Allah would permit this as long as the women still wear something to cover their faces.

On top of that, if the beach was lined with nude swimsuit models, and one nude hairyleg guy was walking around...it’d ruin it for me.

Knock yourself out. But just remember, some things cannot be unseen. Consider yourself warned.

If you want to see topless Minneapolis types, browse thru your libraries National Geographics collection.

It's been proven that those that like to exhibit their bodies in public rarely ever have the type of bodies anyone else wants a view of.

I’ve been to France, where women are allowed to go topless on the beach. At any age. ANY age. I’m still recovering from the damage to my eyesight.
