While I agree, there is a connotation in many western countries to consider. You will be perceived as a thrill seeker, mentally ill, hippy, or something else in that vein because of religious customs dictating that arousal is sinful. Changing perceptions would be a generational effort and, at least in the US, things are swinging more conservative rather than less.

But, in some parts of Europe, toplessness is accepted on both sides of the aisle, so the world isn’t wholly broken. Asia has smatterings of the same. I support egalitarianism wholly, and it’s deeply frustrating that the human body is, mostly, stigmatized through crystalized, cancerous religious repression

Were women to be topless, they would be perceived as a thrill seeker, mentally ill, hippy, or something else in that vein because of religious customs dictating that arousal of your self, or even others is sinful.

This is more of an argument to go topless than anything else.

FREE THE TITTIES!

  In abstract? Absolutely. All I’m going to say to this is to choose where you expend the effort wisely and spread the idea safely.

    The only states in the US that have statewide bans on female toplessness is Indiana, Tennessee, and Utah.
    
    The majority of states in the US explicitly allow femme people to go topless because masculine people are allowed to go topless.

    I recommend heading to Utah to spread your ideas. Half of the US lives in deep, dangerous repression. Direct your misplaced aggression at them, not me

    Only when society ascribes sexuality to things that are inherently not sexual.

    If by “society” you’re referring to my erection, then yes, it’s society that ascribes sexuality to boobs.

While you are correct that the US is more conservative, we do have nude beaches.

thrill seeker, mentally ill, hippy, or something else You call men like that “perverts” or “sex pests”. Women can be those things too.

  I mean, I guess? But going topless really shouldn’t qualify for that. Everyone can be gross. I’m disputing what it is that should be perceived that way. Nudity should be more broadly acceptable.

I’ve gotten my tits out in front of a cop in a red state in fhe US. Yeah people think things and it does correlate with counterculture, but fucking hell sometimes it’s too hot for a shirt

  Physical needs>>>>social decorum. Always. I just wish it didn’t even need to be qualified that way.

    Ok but other days it’s just pretty hot and a breeze against my tits would be nice, and sometimes I’ve indulged that desire. In the same place. It’s legal so why not. And yeah mostly people are doing that at left wing summer festivals, but that’s ok, it worked to normalize it within those groups

    That’s what I’m saying. It’s silly that customs disincentivize an entirely harmless act. That the asterisk exists means something unrelated has been caught in the works.
