Free the Nipple: decriminalizing the female body with a topless revolt

Let’s face it: it’s not fair that we have these boundaries put up for our bodies. Society has us all living in these separate gender boxes of what we’re “supposed” to do as a lady, as a man. And what’s the difference if I see a man’s nipple vs a woman’s nipple? It is just skin in which embodies the inevitable soul that has us most times feeling uncomfortable (which: it should never have to feel that way.)

We should be able to expose our bodies however we want without consequence. Also: why censor a woman’s breasts on a television show or photograph? It almost portrays them in a negative light—blurring them out—it is as if they were never supposed to be there. Oh yeah, or why should we have to play a $2,300 fine for “indecent” exposure? THESE ARE OUR BREASTS, for crying out loud!
