[QUOTE="Kalevalatar, post: 45805197, member: 116770"] Sorry :sorry:, I wasn't clear. I'm with you. I don't see how walking around naked in public any time, any place would "set us free" (hah! I made a pun, I think...). In a way, clothes are our biggest equalizer. Clothes are certainly more merciful. I merely objected the idea that feeling uncomfortable when confronted with nakedness = a universal sign of decency. As in: I have no problem with my naked body, I have no problem with other people's naked bodies, and I'm still a perfectly decent lady, thank you very much. :) :wave: Nice to see a fellow lady who no less than [I]agrees[/I] with me. Seen it. And it's not fair that men can't wear bras for added comfort without being ridiculed and stigmatized. I think you answer to your own wonderings/ponderings/questions when you stop to think why have women through centuries been subjected to all this stuff. Up until our times, a woman's body has always belonged to her family and then to her husband('s family) for the reason that only women can produce heirs (with the little--ha! another pun, unintended, naturally--help of men, of course :) ) I find it a bit ironic that you, a man, are demanding that women be allowed to go topless in public. I mean, shouldn't it be up to us women to make that call--if that's what we want, that is. See what I mean? Rather fascinating discussion, I must say. ;) [/QUOTE]
