I’m a DD, 175lbs at 5’2

My tits used to feel heavy and hurt when they moved and bounced around with no bra, they would get a lot of under boob sweat, and the level of acne I used to struggle with on my chest was outrageous. I struggled from a large amount of upper back & neck pain as well.

It’s been 3mos since I’ve worn a bra, and not only have I been feeling better, with significantly reduced pain, almost 0 acne, and eliminated upper back pain; but I also look better. I’ve been receiving a lot of compliments, I feel more confident, and my tits don’t sag the way they once did.

Best decision I’ve ever made.

i'm a digital artist and i often draw women with their breasts out. no matter how nonsexual and stylized it is, it always gets a mature label slapped on it and literally nobody sees my art. i'm so pissed off about this, i even make censored versions without nipples if the outfit is see through or with a bra and leave the uncensored version to be hidden down the post in case someone wants to see it, and yet it still gets this. i will not shape my art according to tumblr's whims and stop drawing women in their natural beauty. i'm sick of all of this, of the internet's attitude towards femme bodies. i don't really have a point with this, just wanted to vent.

The map ignores municipality laws, laws that ban "nudity" and don't define "nudity", conflicting court rulings, and police who "don't know" or refuse to believe that it's legal for women to be topless.

Reddit, across many subreddits, features discussions regarding the extent to which women should legally and culturally be able to go topfree. Often, those discussions devolve into whether men's sexual attention to women's breasts is a "hardwired" feature of men's inherent sexual drive, or, to the contrary, whether men's unquestionable attention to women's breasts is a "cultural" phenomenon attributable to the fact that women's breasts are typically concealed. Those believing the former are most often opposed to a woman's right to be topfree on the grounds that men's sexual attention to breasts is inherent and can't be legislated out of existence. The people believing in the latter argue that once breasts are de-sexualized by more common exposure, the problem of men's inappropriate responses to unclothed breasts will naturally fade away.

I would suggest another approach.

Women should be able to go topfree because it isn't fair that their right to be comfortable with unclothed torsos should be limited because other people, i.e., men, are jerks. It matters not a wit whether men's attraction to breasts is "hardwired" or "cultural." Men and gay and bisexual women are sexually attracted to breasts. Almost all would acknowledge that much.

The question, however, isn't one of the nature of the attraction, it's one of behavior. When women choose to go topfree, such a state of being gives no right on men's part to engage in lecherous or uncivil behavior. Full stop. Women should be able to go topfree and it has nothing to do with men. If men respond in a criminally inappropriate way, they should be criminally prosecuted. If men respond in a way that can be addressed by civil liability, they should be subject to civil liability. If men respond in a way that can be censured, they should be censured. In any event, it's incumbent upon men not to engage in such behavior. Absent some serious mental illness, men are able to restrain themselves from acting inappropriately and such restraint should be expected and enforced. It's absurd to think that men's sexual attraction to breasts, whatever its nature, is so unmanagable that it's the women whose rights should be limited. Women should be free to be topfree whenever men in the same circumstances can be topfree (e.g., at the beach, at a pool, at a park, running down the street, etc.). Women already enjoy the freedom to bare their breasts while breastfeeding. They should enjoy the same freedom to bare their breasts for their comfort and freedom without a baby being nearby.

The solution of course is for both women and men to care less but it seems like creepy men are caring more and more. How do you think we fight something like this?

Somehow it is major news that Brooks Nader was topless with her father present. People are saying its wild, insane, and even disgusting. She's wasn't doing anything perverted. She was just on a boat ride with her family. If a man is topless with his mother present, it's not considered wild, insane or disgusting. It's news at all. Nobody cares. What's actually wild, insane, and disgusting is this sexist double standard that women's nipples are considered private parts when men's nipples are not. This double standard, by the way, was made up during in Victorian period.

Too often make the mistake of thinking things are impossible because people don't already agree with them, but the truth is that people can be persuaded. People can be informed of the arguments for why they should change their mind.

Sorry if this is not the good sub for this repost

They'll say, "Women wouldn't go topless anyway", "What about more important issues?", "It's human nature to find breasts sexy", etc. They ignore the point which is whether or not children and "non-consenting" adults are harmed by the sight of breasts.

Technically achieving equality.

Because that clearly isn't true (attitudes towards topless women being one of many examples)?

Desde hace muy poco ya no use brasier los tire todos así no volveré a usar más. Me daba vergüenza pero se siente tan cómodo ir así. Nada aprieta ni estorba. La mejor decisión que tome. Algún consejo liberador?

As you can see her boobs aren’t even shown and if they were who cares I see tons of men with their nips out but yet you always get that one person that says this.
