Women Take Their Right To Go Topless To The Courts

Women who make up the “Free the Nipple” movement are taking their right to go topless to the high courts. Those who subscribe to the movement believe that they should be allowed to bare their nipples in public since it is acceptable for men to do so.

According to ABC News, a U.S. District Court judge ruled in October that a public indecency ordinance in Missouri didn’t violate the state constitution by allowing men, but not women, to show their nipples. But in February, a U.S. District Court judge blocked the city of Fort Collins, Colorado, from enforcing a law against women going topless, arguing it was based on gender discrimination. The city of Ft. Collins is appealing.
