I have also spent bright days with The Outside Coed Topless Pulp Fiction Appreciation Society and in late August of 2011, I coordinated a top-free day in Central Park.
So that is how topfree equality became among the causes that I care about and advocate for. I'm also a naturist, and while one might think I'm just supporting more nudity in public, I am not. Being a naturist does not mean wanting to be nude in public everywhere. Nor does it mean that I desire to be naked on a regular basis. My support of this cause comes from a deep rooted feminist mentality. It is about the gender equality.
I don't like being discriminated against because I 've a vagina, which is what topless laws do.
I don't enjoy society attempting to control women's sexuality using modesty rules and laws.
I don't like society blaming female victims of sexual assault because they were asking for it through their state of dress.

Female sexuality is utilized to sell products, but the moment women attempt to own their bodies or sexuality, they may be vilified, shamed, attacked. This should change.
That is why it was so encouraging if you ask me when I found Free the Nipple not too long after their effort began in 2012.
The Free The Nipple campaign took off on social media. An enormous variable was the vocal support it received from celebrities such as Miley Cyrus and Scout Willis. (Scout staged her own topfree stunt in NYC and wrote an excellent post about it on xojane.)
In the media, Esco emphasized lots of the sexism and discrimination in how society treats women and their bodies. At the start, much of the focus was put on American media's twisted censorship policies. http://www.variable-stars.ru/db/msusearch/site.html?sort=n&page=52&site=nudismvideo.xyz of graphic violence is considered okay whereas a female nipple will send folks into a craze. Esco's point is a valid one but, in my opinion, it is not why women should be given the right to go topfree. Though I disagreed with part of her strategy, I figured her statements were crafted as an easy way to gain interest and garner more support from the mainstream public.
Free The Nipple - Lina Esco Quote
Flashback to the Free The Nipple movie that's now out in theaters. While the picture is purportedly based (loosely) on true events, the movie itself isn't a documentary. The storyline occurs in NYC where policemen willfully disregard the law and make arrests (as is the case in real life a point I understand all too well!).
With tracks down the ringleader, Liv (Lola Kirke), in the hopes of interviewing her for a news story. While With http://as-roma.ir/__media__/js/netsoltrademark.php?d=noefa.com to get her interview, she's beaten when her employer refuses to print it and during the meeting really decides to fire her. Inspired, With determines to team up with Liv and a couple of other recruited women to launch a movement they call Free the Nipple. Shortly afterwards, http://sanvincentelabor.com/__media__/js/netsoltrademark.php?d=nudismpic.xyz , arrests, attorneys and PR stunts happen.

The movie itself got lots of bad reviews. It was deemed amateurish, vexing and shallow. Reviewers mentioned the plot points that did not make sense as well as some inaccuracies that were probably quite embarrassing for the filmmaker.
A particular facet seemed to be of special interest to critics. In the opening scene, you see several girls running down Wall Street topless but in marked comparison to the rest of the picture, the women's breasts are censored / pixelated. The question they wanted answered was WHY?
