PORTLAND – About two dozen women marched topless from Longfellow Square to Tommy's Park this afternoon in an effort to erase what they see as a double standard on male and female nudity.
...
The women, preceded and followed by several hundred boisterous and mostly male onlookers, many of them carrying cameras, stayed on the sidewalk because they hadn't obtained a demonstration permit to walk in the street. About a thousand people gathered as the march passed through Monument Square, a mix of demonstrators, supporters, onlookers and those just out enjoying a warm and sunny early-spring day.
...
Police said there were no incidents and no arrests – nudity is illegal in Maine only if genitals are displayed.
Ty McDowell, who organized the march, said she was "enraged" by the turnout of men attracted to the demonstration. The purpose, she said, was for society to have the same reaction to a woman walking around topless as it does to men without shirts on. ...

Only a feminist could be surprised at that outcome. Wonder what her DU name is. :-)

Good ol' Maine. I'm sure a few of them had serious bruising on their breasts afterwards from kicking them as they walked.

Works for me!

Why?
I guess I must be getting old...but I don't understand the need (desire?) to want to walk around showing my boobiez to everyone. Especially in a situation like this one is described.
It's one thing to fleetingly lift one's shirt in 'Nawlins at Mardis Gras or Fantasy Week in Key West ( :-) ) to get beads, it's another to walk around with saggy boobiez with the idea that all women want the right to walk around half naked and this is the way to accomplish that.
I'm thinking it's a case of a bunch of misguided, as usual, feminists.... ::) They make us normal women look bad... ::)

I must be getting old too, because I feel the same way. Wearing a top in public has never seemed like a horrible burden ::) I'll be honest, I like my boobs, and I think they look pretty good, but I really don't feel the need to share them with the world.
-
From the pic above, from the rear, they look like men. Maybe they had to show their boobiez to establish their gender.

However, McDowell said she plans to organize similar demonstrations in the future and said she would be more "aggressive" in discouraging oglers.
Bijou hit the nail on the head. Only a feminist would be surprised by the outcome.
Topless women will never ever get the same reaction topless men. This is classic liberal logic: they see no difference between men and women and they are surprised when everyone else does. 50 years of topless beaches in Europe haven't stopped the ogling... Human genetics cannot be protested or outraged away.
Further this is not a driving feminist issue. The gals here have expressed no sympathy for the cause, nor a desire to join in the protests. Equality is not at issue here. good taste IS.
And just how is this group going to be aggressively discouraging oglers? Short of violence, it just isn't going to happen...
That said, there is a truth in life I would impart to those planning trips to the city:
Liberal feminist moonbats who insist on protesting topless are never ever the ones you want to see.
I saw the picture, and while they weren't fat, they were DU quality gals: pasty white and haven't left the basement to see the sun in years.

Look at the picture again...upper left corner between the tree and the pole..
The face looks like a chick...but its that a man boob? or did the photographer slip up?
Things have been seen that cannot be unseen.

Only leftists would contradict themselves like this. Marriage is oppression, being a slut is liberating and stop treating us like sex objects.
ugh

Metrosexual. I don't really know what the term defines, but it has to refer to that thing.

Sorry folks, I go 100% the other way. I want to see MEN cover up their Man Boobs.
GADDDDDD what an ugly sight, men with pot belly's with no shirt that could fit into a 38B bra strolling about in Madras Bermuda shorts. Some of the old farts don't bother wearing a belt so a good 3 inches of crack shows from behind. [ They can't all be plumbers can they.? ]
Skinny 16 year old boys wearing low pants and infected nipple rings make me want to puke.
Now about Portland and the march. I would be worried if the men didn't tag along taking pictures of half naked woman. Have to change the name of the town to Gay Port in that case.
It is almost that time of the year for us on the sea coast, get out the cameras girls, the Skive Man may be around again at the beach soon. The middle aged Dude runs about naked except for his Jockey shorts on his head giving old Lady's a story to tell at Bingo.

Put the top down and cruised down by the Point just this morning, mother commented it was still too early an a bit cool for everyone's favorite flasher to be out. You know somethin she don't???
Nothing like riding around topless Vesta hardly any bikers out either. :tongue:

Just an observation, judging by the symbols painted on one's back and the remaining clothes they wore, men might not be far off. Angry lesbians would probably be dead on. Guess they were getting bored down in Ogunquit.

At least this thread didn't need a spork alert.

Or going to a beach in a foreign country, where the potbellied old guys are wearing Speedos. Those things only belong on a young guy on a swim or dive team. Otherwise they should be illegal....

While everyone is out bird watching or checking on the wild life, the newest sport for the last couple of years has been to Spot the Prevo.
Yup, much fun for us old ladys. We head out to the last sighting with our wheel chairs and walkers, bring a picknick lunch and have a delightfull day at the beach in the sun waiting for the pervo to run by.
Some times we get up a small pool to give to the first one to get a picture of him and spend hours watching as cars pull up with a single male driver. We put odds on each driver as to the chances of that man being the Pervo.
This is much like the folk in California that go looking for Big Foot.

I guess this will be an episode of "When Breasts Attack"?

Well, honestly they don't seem to be the overweight gang of aging heifers that one normally expects at a protest (Tip o' the hat to Code Pink there), and most of them look reasonably human at least from the back, but they all seem to use the same lesbo hairdresser...or barber to be more accurate. Talk about your 'Butch haircuts!'
:rotf:

I guess they figure they are theirs why not share them with the city
