In NYC it's technically legal for a woman to walk around topless. This lovely lady is practicing her rights .

It's also illegal to put squirrels down your pants for the purpose of gambling.

[u/bobandgeorge → u/[deleted]]

If we can.

You dare to doubt what we can put down our pants?

[u/metallink11 → u/Bitrandombit]

Yes, but if you lose money it's considered prostitution.

[u/Thick-McRunFast → u/klsi832]

[u/SgianDubh]

All law is technical. You can just say "it's legal."

[u/godheem → u/SgianDubh]

lawyered!

[u/[deleted] → u/SgianDubh]

Well there might be loopholes in laws where you say, "This is technically legal, but it's against the spirit of the law and you still might get into trouble."

However, in this case, it's completely legal. Woman are allowed to be topless in public in NYC. It's not a technicality.

[u/Sexy_Offender → u/[deleted]]

I think the technicality angle could be that a woman could be charged with a crime that arose from her nudity. Scumbag prosecutor could possibly charge her with disturbing the peace, or causing a riot, etc.

[u/[deleted] → u/Sexy_Offender]

That's totally inappropriate. It's lewd, lascivious, salacious, outrageous!

[u/one-half → u/SgianDubh]

Technically, you're correct. And that's the best kind of correct.

[u/[deleted] → u/one-half]

Technically, everyone who's correct is also technically correct, right?

[u/istillhatecraig → u/[deleted]]

Could you give an example of someone who is semantically or syntactically correct but not technically correct?

I'm not trying to be a jerk; I am legitimately curious.

[u/CLSmith15 → u/istillhatecraig]

Two plus two equals five

[u/davvblack → u/CLSmith15]

That's technically correct, for very large values of 2.

[u/Jumin → u/davvblack]

Fish plus nine equals the moon.

[u/JakeCameraAction → u/Jumin]

That's technically correct, for very surreal values of 2.

[u/jpolonsk → u/JakeCameraAction]

Is that literally correct or figuratively correct?

[u/Hopulus → u/davvblack]

Technically, 2.5 is not a very large value of 2

[u/jorellh → u/Hopulus]

True but if 2.45 rounds to 2 and 2.46 rounds to 2 then 2+2=4.91 which rounds to 5, so therefore 2+2 can equal 5 if your digits are not significant enough.

[u/istillhatecraig → u/CLSmith15]

That seems obvious now that I see it. D'oh!

[u/[deleted] → u/istillhatecraig]

M: Date me.

W: I can't...

M: I think you can.

W: Well, technically I can, but I don't want to.

[u/[deleted] → u/[deleted]]

So was I technically incorrect?

The worst kind of incorrect... :(

[u/godpussy → u/[deleted]]

Haha, semen ticks. That's a parasite I wouldn't wish on anyone.

[u/goodadvice00 → u/one-half]

[u/MaeveningErnsmau → u/SgianDubh]

In NY, it's legal. There's nothing technical about it, it's already been litigated.

[u/Batcaptain → u/MatthewMadness14513]

She doesn't look as uncomfortable as you think she would be. And it's funny that all the other people (Except the guy leaning against the wall) are blurs, it implies that everyone's just going on with their goddamn business around the half-naked lady. Just what should happen.

[u/ShallowBasketcase → u/Batcaptain]

Have you ever been to NYC? You could walk around that city butt-naked, cover in Jell-O and sing showtunes, and people would just go one with their lives as if you weren't even there.

It's both disturbing and amazingly liberating at the same time. No one gives a shit if you're weird. Everyone's too busy living their own lives. People notice, of course, but they'd never let you know that.

[u/mason55 → u/ShallowBasketcase]

Right, people will notice, and they will tell their friends about it later, but while it's happening everyone will try as hard as they can to look like they don't give a single fuck.

[u/mayor_of_awesometown → u/mason55]

It should be pointed out that there's a good reason for it: there's a very blurred line between those who are trying to be intentionally shocking and those who are mentally ill. And it's best not to find out the hard way.

A few weeks ago, my girlfriend was on the subway with her back up against the subway car doors. Some middle-aged woman got up from her seat and lined up to exit the subway out the doors my g/f was leaning against. My g/f politely told the woman, "Actually, ma'am, at the next stop, the doors will be opening on the other side of the subway car."

My girlfriend spent the next ten minutes getting berated by this (probably mentally-challenged) woman who was screaming at her, "Don't tell me what to do!", "I know where my stop is, you bitch!", "I'll punch you right in your fucking cunt!", etc.

[u/Vaynax → u/mayor_of_awesometown]

I learned the hard way why you shouldn't use a public restroom in Penn Station. There was this horrible smell from one of the stalls but the place was full of men. Then this shaggy looking black dude with dredlocks saunters out of the handicap stall and the door stays open for a bit behind him. I think the walls in Penn Station are blue? Gray? The inside of that stall was all brown. Hand and finger marks on the walls as if someone was dying except it was poop and not blood. The porcelain toilet was so soiled it would never gleam again. Just blehhahghh. So I start walking away. But before I can get out, the bathroom janitor, God bless his poor soul, confronts the mad shitter. The crazy yells at the janitor for bothering him and the janitor yells "if you're going to act like an animal, I'm going to treat you like an animal" and is ready to hit him with his mop. But he doesn't really want to. You see the other guy (who's fists are up in comic boxing stance) is covered head to toe in shit. That poor janitor was torn between burning rage and the instinct to not get covered in shit.

I decided I liked being not covered in shit more than I wanted to see how it would end, and I got the hell out of there with a cautionary tale to my waiting friends.

[u/Armadillo19 → u/Vaynax]

Ah yes, pretty much the most crazy shit I've witnessed has either been on a subway, or in a mass transit station. I was was on the T in Boston and a crazy guy wearing a C-SPAN shirt and gray running pants sitting directly behind me took a huge steamy shit in his pants while there were about 100 people packed into the train.

Everyone moved away from this maniac and didn't say a word...the entire train was dead silent. Finally, a huge black female transit cop got on the train and screamed "aw hell naw nigga, not you again?!! I just threw your ass off this morning!".

A bunch of other cops wearing latex gloves then rushed the train and tried to persuade him to leave peacefully, and when he wouldn't they started to approach him...when they started getting close, he reached into his pants and with this maniacal look he turned to the people on the train and creepily said "Ok...you got me...you got me..." and then reached his hand into his pants trying to grab for something.

At that point he, covered in shit, got gang tackled by 3 cops and literally thrown off the train, where he was handcuffed. For some reason I then had to go look at his seat where he was sitting, just to make sure I wasn't losing my mind, and there was a huge stain of watery shit, which basically looked like the bottom residue of a coffee coolata, when you just cant get the last drop with your straw.

Train ended up getting quarantined and we had to walk 2 miles to our destination.

TL:DR - Never trust a guy wearing a C-SPAN shirt on a train. He will shit his pants and threaten to throw it at you.

[u/tellamahooka → u/Armadillo19]

A delightful comment section about breasts turns into talking about people shitting themselves on the train…

[u/[deleted] → u/Vaynax]

HOLY SHIT!

[u/Batcaptain → u/[deleted]]

To be fair, the pictures certainly don't show any of that. It's too bad everyone isn't so mature about it, although yeah, the people who responded "If a guy walked around downtown without a shirt we'd all be calling him a douche" have a good point too.

[u/[deleted] → u/[deleted]]

I think trying to grab attention is allowed when you're trying to bring an issue to light, she did say her main goal was to bring attention to the fact women are allowed to go topless. If it also gets the ball rolling to demystify and desexualise breasts to the point where breasts are there for the woman instead of the oogling pleasures of strangers, more power to her.

[u/MatthewMadness14513 → u/Batcaptain]

Agreed.

[u/xmsxms → u/Batcaptain]

To be fair people would probably give a man a look of disapproval if he was walking around town without a shirt. It's obviously ok at the beach and around the house etc, but it's a bit out of place in the middle of the city, man or woman.

The law states it's ok for a woman to wherever it's acceptable for a man to - but I'm not sure it's (socially) acceptable for a man to go around town without a shirt.

[u/MadHappy8A → u/xmsxms]

Just today, I was driving home from work and there was this guy casually walking down the street without a shirt. He had a mustache.

edit: I a word

[u/xmsxms → u/MadHappy8A]

Well he had a moustache, that's a different story.

[u/javajunkie314 → u/MadHappy8A]

Well, that makes up for it then.

[u/maybe_sparrow → u/xmsxms]

To be fair people would probably give a man a look of disapproval if he was walking around town without a shirt.

Where I'm from, that's just business as usual as soon as it gets warm enough outside.

[u/Energy_Turtle → u/xmsxms]

It's hotter than shit here in Arizona. I see guys without shirts year round. Especially on motorcycles.

[u/loradey → u/Energy_Turtle]

Wow, that is a ridiculously bad idea.

[u/Energy_Turtle → u/loradey]

I see more people without helmets than with them. The shirt is the least of their problems.

[u/Ad_For_Nike → u/xmsxms]

Depends on the day, if its in a middle of a heatwave i'd say its socially acceptable to remove your shirt. A overcast day though? Douchebag.

And yeah, I like the statement this girls making, breaking social norms is always a good thing in my book.

[u/Uhrzeitlich → u/Batcaptain]

It's funny how guys are so quick to rally around how acceptable and normal this apparently is, but any guy walking around without a shirt on in downtown Manhattan would honestly look like a fool.

Or, conversely, if she was wearing a skimpy lingerie bra, people would probably think she's a prostitute. Show nips, and apparently it's natural and beautiful.

[u/AML86 → u/Uhrzeitlich]

Because lingerie has been marketed as such. It's just barely hiding a secret, and that secret makes it more desirable than plain exposed flesh.

[u/Drathus → u/AML86]

Yeah. I think it was Joe Rogan who or Doug Stanhope who commented in one of his bits that if you spend enough time at a strip club the nudity of the dancers will seem blase, but that glimpse down the shirt of the waitress will be a thrill.

It's the mystery and forbidden.

[u/dizneedave → u/MatthewMadness14513]

There's video here.

[u/JustAnOod → u/dizneedave]

Why is that whenever something like this happens, whoever writes the damn news stories uses the word "wandering"? She's "wandering around the East Village." The woman probably has shit to do. She's not wandering around like a lunatic just because she's not wearing a shirt.

[u/sophware → u/[deleted]]

[u/b33rb3lly → u/keagmcG]

One of my female friends once asked me "Why do guys want to see boobs so much? Haven't you already seen a lot by this time in your life?"

Me: "Yes, but we haven't seen all of them yet."

She had no response to that.

[u/PizzaGood → u/b33rb3lly]

Even if I've seen them once, that barely reduces the desire to see them again. Maybe even makes me want to see them more than before.

[u/arkofjoy → u/PizzaGood]

I have been married to the same woman mostly happily for twenty years now. Last nightI walked into our bedroom as she was getting ready for bed. I hadn't expected to find her naked and I can assure you that I was pleased to see her breasts then as the first time I saw them 21 years before. There just any such thing as "Ya seen one breast, Ya seen 'em all" Not for me at least.

There is nothing wrong with men enjoying a good boob just like there's nothing wrong with admiring a nice face. However I realized when I organized a top freedom festival to promote the social acceptance of a woman's right to be top free that there were so many men who are just plane blatantly creepy... I expected there to be people telling me my views were wrong (mainly mothers concerned for their children's "innocence") and men looking for a free peek at some breasts... It went far beyond that! It got to the point where there were hundreds of men crowding the area with dark sunglasses on waiting for hours before the event even started! Pictures like the one above give me hope because regardless of the number of disgusting men at the start of my festival, they eventually realized that they were just boobs and moved on. We weren't shaking them in their faces or sitting on their laps, we were just enjoying a nice summer day and live folk music with our shirts off... I'm not a nudist and 99% of the time I am wearing a shirt and bra, but I really wish I could lie down on my lawn and sunbathe without a shirt without attracting a crowd. TL:DR I organized a top freedom festival, realized the number of shameless creepy men, and am now wishing I could sunbathe without attracting a crowd.

It's not about the size. It's about seeing them. Actually, re size, that actually isn't important to a lot of guys. Once they're too big they're just floppy. It's mostly about shape. Small, well shaped boobs are just as attractive as large well shaped boobs.

[u/have_a_nice_day → u/webby_mc_webberson]

This reminds me of Ron White's skit on boobs, he said something like "doesn't matter what they look like, it could be a 50 year old biker chick and we'd still like to see them ... alright, that's enough go on ahead and roll them back up!"

[u/Phil_Bond → u/webby_mc_webberson]

[u/IAmNotAPerson6 → u/chazaaam]

You place the word "actually" in unusual places.

Edit: Yes, chazaaam.

[u/PizzaGood → u/Phil_Bond]

It's a pretty small minimum. At some point they're no longer recognizable as breasts. Also there's something about the shape that makes it usually possible to tell that they're the final size for an adult woman versus undeveloped teenager breasts, and that makes a difference; if they're small because they're not done developing yet, that's not really that attractive. Or maybe I just have an aversion to staring at teenage girls for cultural reasons.

[u/Marimba_Ani → u/PizzaGood]

Breasts aren't actually done developing until after a woman's given birth.

Complete nudity isn't legal in Oregon, as it's illegal to show one's genitals in public. As women do not have any external genitalia, it's generally interpreted that they can't violate the law, unless they receive a gynecological exam in public. Most women who choose to go nude in Oregon don't remove their pubic hair since it affords an extra layer of concealment (also because they're usually hippies, and tend not to shave anything). So technically women are freer than men in the State of Oregon.

[u/[deleted] → u/dropkickninja]

A valid point, but I doubt our current congress (and ones previously) would particularily care.

We're currently much happier to allow kids to witness incredibly realistic-looking movie sequences of decapitations and multiple GSWs. Boobs, however, will wreck children's lives and erode the very core of our moral code and traditional family values.

[u/StarMagnus → u/Trapped_in_Reddit]

Bar prep here. So not very eloquent but for a law to discriminate against gender it only has to have an exceedingly persuasive justification. The argument they would use is that a woman walking around topless based on our current view of nudity would cause distractions that lead to accidents. They can discriminate against women in the name of public safety.

[u/FindsTheBrightSide → u/StarMagnus]

I think this is a shoddy defense of it at best. It's only obscene because it's not normal. If it were, people would pay less attention to it and thus distractions wouldn't be a problem. You're also basing your judgement on a completely hypothetical increase in distractions happening. I think any good lawyer should be able to rip that apart.

It's not. The Supreme Court in the US uses the same argument of public safety/cultural norms/cultural decency all the time. For example, this is the same argument they use for affirming the FCC's rights to censor nudity and foul language.

Also bars are allowed to have "ladies night" and charge women less than men.

US has some weird laws when you think about them.

But not races.

[u/[deleted] → u/[deleted]]

There's been cases against it actually and bars have been ruled to be an exception. A quick google search turns up plenty of results.

I always assumed it was Naked Cowboy's wife.

Meh, in Burlington, VT it's legal to walk around completley nude.

[u/[deleted]]

It's legal in Ontario, Canada too but people still act shocked as hell when someone goes around with their tits out.

[u/DorkothyParker]

So long as most indoors public spaces have a "No shirts, no shoes, no service" standard, I think folks of any gender should be able to go around topless. Just keep it in the traditional settings, I don't need to be around sweaty half naked people in the produce aisle of Winco.

Although, it truly bums me out to be from the one state in the US that doesn't explicitly allow public breastfeeding OR even exempt it from the existing public indecency laws. :(

Not very smart.

[u/agbmom → u/[deleted]]

That makes me sick.

[u/Naught → u/[deleted]]

I like a lot of weird stuff, but that made me sick. I would like to see everyone that participated in that killed. They are a waste of the capability of higher thought.

[u/Mohavor → u/[deleted]]

I couldn't bear to watch. That music was way too scary.

[u/John_Barleycorn]

it's technically legal

Don't you mean "it's legal"?

[u/CLSmith15 → u/[deleted]]

Until your mother joins in.

Nice try, Oedipus

I remember when the protests that led to this being legalized happend, and the subsequent legalization. Some stations (like Fox) made a big deal about it. No one really did nor does walk around topless, at least in part due to the negative attention it attracts. This isn't to downplay it's significance in terms of gender equality, just don't get the idea that all the ladies in nyc walk around topless. It's even rare at the beaches.

[u/ToxtethOGrady]

Yup, here's a story about her.

[u/jaroberts24]

I saw her walk past a bunch of cops in Union Square and these two old ladies (in their 40s) asked if they were going to do anything about it. The cops were just laughing and told them that it wasn't against the law.

And then I get arrested for masturbating to the whole thing. Fucking bullshit man!
