Women Demanding Rights to be Topless. What?

We've seen many kinds of on-road-protests, with a variety of demands filed by the protesters. But what would happen if there are protests from a group of women, who demanded the right to be bare-chested in public, like the men? Although it does not make sense for some countries, but that's what happened in the United States.



Women in the U.S. demanding the gender equality issues. In their claim, they wanted to can be seen in public as well as men, a.k.a topless.

The protest campaign was announced in the 'National Go-Topless Day' started last August 23. Its a nationwide protests by women, especially in New York, who paraded around the city.

In the U.S., as reported by news.com, Thursday (27 / 8), New York is the only state that allows a woman show their nipples in public. Thanks to the long struggle in the courts in 1992.

However, protesters in other states do not lack sense. The women marched topless, but wearing a fake nipple that is like the original very much. As such, they could not arrested but did not reduce the meaning of the protests.

They think if male nipples can be seen, what's the difference with women?
