One of the things I do now that helps is put blogs I find interesting in an RSS reader. This makes it easier.

One way the searches come about is to see a story, like the one below on Salon.com.
hxxp://www.salon.com/travel/feature/1998/06/04/feature

It features two women that visited the shrines in the Tongo Hills and were told they had to remove their tops to enter the shrine. I really enjoyed that story even though the girls didn't remove their bras, but I wondered if there was such a place that women were expected to be topless. So I did some research and found that it is a real thing. I found a handful of stories that confirm this, but I'm sure there are a lot more out there. These days I wouldn't be surprised if the locals set up a live web cam.

Below are some of the stories I found.

It seems that a lot of the women who go there are Dutch, not sure why. If anyone out there has something to contribute on this topic, please post.

Nice idea, thereshould be more places where women were expected to be topless!
