Should women be allowed to be topless wherever men can be topless?

I don't think that people should have to wear clothing at all.  Should be a matter of choice.  Children who are raised in nudist colonies are much more pyschologically balanced than those who are not.  Some idiot said we should be ashamed of what God gave us and made us cover up.  Keeps a lot of people employed though.

No... I do not think they should be banned. Why? What is the point, if you ban the bra, then someone will just come up with a different way to do it anyways...

It is perfectly legal in Washington DC, which is not a state, but is part of the United States.  Hmmm, how does THAT work.  =)  A few years ago, after Brandi Chastain did her famous jersey removal (wearing a sports bra) after scoring the winning shootout goal in the Women's World Cup final, a dozen or so members of the Ohio State University women's rugby team posed for a topless photo in front of the Lincoln Memorial, as some sort of bonding ritual.\n\nDC is under the jurisdiction of Federal law, and evidently, the Feds don't mind boobies.  The rest of the US should lighten up!

Yes, why yes it is.  In Ontario completely Legal to go topless.   Some women do, however it is usually the ones you wish wouldn't.

Definitely. Breasts, no matter what sex they're on, need support.

No, I think it should be allowed. I mean, god gave us both what we have and if an individual wishes to show, then why the hell not!\n\nThe only reservation I would have is that most males are not psychologically mature enough, and would probably not be fully in control. After a while though, everyone would get used to it and it would become a normal thing. It is, in many parts of the world already!

It depends this is a tricky one and something I was actually discussing the other day. I dont think that it is appropriate for kids to be wearing thongs, or bikkinis, or ten year olds running around naked in public.\n\nHowever, what if this child was brought up with parents who believe in nudism, whos parents attend specific places which are closed to outsiders like beaches, they are used to it they have been brought up with it and there is nothing leud at all going on its just going on with out clothes, then perhaps not.\n\nHowever since this is not usually the situation in general i would say no, its not.

probably anywhere but the US. The macho men & women of this country first need to get over their fear, bias & hangups against women in power.

Yes I would! I trust her completely and if she wanted to go topless it would be fine with me! If you were to ask her if she would I know she would say yes if we were at a topless beach.\nGood question

Pornography is the best thing to happen to women since the fight for equality.  While millions of men have their pants down around their ankles, women are taking over the world.  The girls will be moving upward and onward, and the guys will never catch them – how can they?  They have their pants around their ankles.\n\nAnd the ironic thing about it all is that 30 years from now, after men have jerked their social status away, men will be not be demanding, but begging women for equality.  Do you suppose women will give it to them?

I'm not entirely understanding your question, but if I bent over, people would see down my top, and yes, my bra.  Wa-hey.  If people find them that exciting they should go hang out in a lingerie shop.

In this heat, I would say it is best to walk in streets without a shirt.\n\nWhere we live, people do this all the time. Oh! just thought of something, You are a guy, right? Becoz if you are a girl, then I would stare at you. Lots.

In our culture as it is, no.  We are far to caught up in sexual politics for that to work.  If we lived in a culture that didn't work so hard to separate boys and girls as young children, and try to make us all ashamed of our bodies, maybe boys & girls could be naked around each other without it becoming sexual.  But we don't live in that culture.

Going braless is OK in situations if you have perky breasts and want to show them off, but do it only occasionally.  Otherwise, not wearing a bra means sagging breasts.  And finally, note the situation.  If you are going to an important business meeting or a similar setting, dressing conservatively is the way to go.

Nah but we should only allow FEMALE Military Leaders!!\n\nThe world would definitely be a more peaceful place.

Every respectable person dresses modestly.Ethically no religion can claim to have autonomy over any particular dress code.Maybe we need to make every Christian,Muslim, Buddhist,etc,know they can wear any dress code as long as it is modestly acceptable to the public.This is not only of women alone.I think that men too dress in a way that captures women's admiration,but that was not discussed by the religious books.I think that is not fair enough because this competition between the opposite sexes of arousing one another's feelings is what is actually creating the problems of immodest dressing.
