Go Topless Day to free the nipple in Vancouver this Sunday

Dozens of women will be marching through Vancouver topless this Sunday to uphold their right to #freethenipple, and celebrate the 8th International Go Topless Day.

The Go Topless Day Vancouver Parade will start at Safeway at Robson and Bidwell at 1 pm and end at the Vancouver Art Gallery at the corner of Robson and Hornby around 2:30 pm.

Although it is legal in Vancouver for women to go topless as well as men, organizers say many people do not even know about – or respect – that right.

“No woman should be humiliated or harassed because she takes a quiet sunbathe topless, while men are allowed,” write organizers on the Facebook event.

“The more women… exercise their right freely, the less others will react around them.”

Men are also invited to take part, but to make a point about the different way female toplessness is treated, men are asked to cover their nipples with an X or a bikini top/bra.

“If women are not respected and [are] asked to… cover their breasts because it is indecent then men should cover themselves too!” say organizers.

To women thinking of coming along, but feeling shy about doing so, organizers emphasize the group will all be in it together – and if you want to come clothed, then that’s okay too.

“Let’s unite together to express this freedom and assert this right.”

Does it specifically say you have to be a woman?

Unpossible! T&A would have told us!

@Hubcap Nope, not a hint, not even:

Good to see the hard hitting real issues of the World are constantly worked on by these people

Ironically the only people I ever see complain about Women being Topless in Public are other Women.

Men should cover up because women get told to cover up but women don't have to cover up because men don't get asked to.




Yup, fucking retarded. My nipples flow free at least 8500 hours a year.

I don't think it's fair I'm being humiliated for pulling out my dick in public.

Don't these feminists ever get that men would have no problem with seeing their tits in public? You can jump up and down in front of my window, topless, all day, and I wouldn't mind. I might even tip you. We live in a world where men pay money for seeing women naked. And these women think we want them to cover up. The same women that complain when men only look at them or make them compliments.

Go ahead and walk around topless. See how it goes. Don't complain when men treat you accordingly.

only on the internet would someone say equality isnt a worthwhile pursuit

[Super Kami Dende]

Why are you not working on the real world issues instead of posting on a forum?

Because I don't care to waste my time on Issues, Real or Trivial.

Only on the Internet would someone think walking around topless was any sort of worthwhile "equality".

Also as I said, Women seem to be the only ones I ever seem to see complain about other Women being Topless. would guarantee the vast majority of Men could not give a shit.

So this March has nothing to do with Equality since they mostly seem to be keep themselves down as a Gender.

Only on the internet, does someone use this level of a stupid Strawman.

At least, that's the hope, for your sake. Otherwise, you are about as "intelligent" in your reasoning as the feminists.

How about men going around with bikini-bottoms? Surely, the dick falling out isn't a problem, right?

[Ihazpaws]

Really? Well I'll contribute too, from Finland *throws bra away*

Nah man, they are getting triggered by our very nipples. They can put up with the fat, hairy beer belly, but not the nipps. :/

I have never heard a person tell a woman to cover her breasts I have told many a male to put a fucking shirt on.

your dick is a sexual organ, a breast isn't a sexual organ.

hopefully this picks up in the US more. i mean, it's not like i'll be walking around without a shirt if it's legal, but i think people should have the right to if they want.

And do you agree with the sentiment of Men not being allowed to have exposed nipples?

It's plain Sexism.

The problem is they're so rarely the women you want to see topless...


Anywho... as for people saying "sexually dimorphic/engrained gender roles/yadda yadda..." So what? That, in it of itself, isn't an argument.

Sure, you can point out that women have different breasts than men, but that isn't really a reason that they should be "treated" differently.

And do you agree with the sentiment of Men not being allowed to have exposed nipples?

It's plain Sexism.

Pretty sure they were shooting for "irony"
