Gotopless.org claims the constitutional right of women to go topless in public in the name of gender equality. Rael, spiritual leader and founder of goTopless.org states: "as long as men can be topless, constitutionally women should have the same right, or men should also be forced to wear something hiding their chest."
Gotopless organizes a National Go-Topless Day protest every year at the end of August in honor of Women's Equality Day (celebrated on Aug 26). It it is indeed on that date in 1920 that women won the right to vote. Please sign this important petition and join us in person on Sunday August 22nd, 2010. See participating cities on our website.

It's a basic right for women to be women. A civilization that considers naked breast as outrageous deprives itself of feminity.

I have always been a strong supporter for the right of women to be able to go topless just like a man is able. There is no difference, other than size, between a man and a woman when it comes to breasts. Both basically look the same. In the State of Oregon where I live it is legal to be topless in public where in other states it is a criminal offense, this is unfair to all women young and old.

I agree that it is hypocritical that men can go topless and woman not. In general I find it strange that violence is accepted and regarded as normal and the naked humen body as something not normal.

Ironically, the only people who believe women shouldn't show their boobs in public are boobs, themselves. It's fetishy, old fashioned and immature to sexualize women's breasts. I'm tired of the creepiness and the shame associated with this completely natural body part. And the gender imbalance in topless laws are blatantly sexist. Make it stop now.

If a man can show his chest, a woman should have every right to as well. Breasts are not obscene any more than a man's chest is; it is ridiculous that we are required to cover ourselves in apparent shame when men are not. Equality for all.

Why should the women who feel comfortable enough to be bare backed be presented with laws prohibiting it. Especially in the comfort of thier own yards and gardens and such. There is no vulgarity in it. Men have the right to go around nearly anywhere exposing thier chests.
I feel that women deserve to have the same rights. The fact is some men shouldn't be going topless if women are not allowed. I am sure that everyone has been to a beach, or walking down the street as far as that matters and seen men topless with man breasts pertruding out. The female breast is not genitalia. On the most part it is a food source for the young.

Every man and woman should have the right to wear as much or as few clothes as they wish themselves, but at least they need to have the same rights! men topless allowed = women topless allowed (and no this doesn't mean I want to take away that right from the men!)

Laws to cover up vary by nationality and seem to increase by how 'sophisticated' societies imagine themselves to be. There is nothing improper or obscene about the way we enter this world. Hopefully this will be the starting point for our society to grow into the shoes we think we wear.

50% of the world has breasts, and somehow they are considered obscene and disgusting. Women's breasts are no more sexual than a man's, it is our society that inflicts this idea upon our women and enforces this idea among our men. No, just because it's "always been this way" does not make it right, these are archaic sexist ideas about a woman's body that need to be CHANGED.
It is no more exhibitionist, immodest, vain or scandalous for a woman to be topfree as a man to be topfree.
And we need to teach our young men and women this, that it is wrong to sexualise women's bodies unduly, when they are only barechested. It will of course take a lot of time to normalise this idea amongst our society, but it is a fundamental RIGHT. Our stupid society needs to be brought up to speed with these intellectually reasoned principles of EQUALITY.

1. The only difference between men's breasts and women's breasts is that women's breasts are functional.
2. Maybe seeing "normal" breasts and bodies will help prevent girls from developing negative body images as they grow older.

Being a true Nudist, I loathe having to wear tops at all times when in public. As the old saying goes: "What's good for the goose, is GOOD for the gander!" Most men have larger moobs than women have natural breasts. Free our boobs!!
