Women hold topless march in Maine 4-3-2010

[Jelly Ree]

From News Reports:

"About two dozen women drew a crowd of onlookers when they shed their shirts and marched downtown in Maine's largest city to promote what they call equal-opportunity public toplessness.

Organizer Ty MacDowell said the point of Saturday's march in Portland was that a topless woman out in public shouldn't attract any more attention than a man who walks around without a shirt.


The Portland Press Herald reports that by the end of the march, more than 500 people had amassed — a mix of marchers, young men snapping photos, oglers and people just out enjoying a sunny, warm day.

It's not illegal for a woman to be topless in public in Maine, and police said there were no incidents or arrests."

Well?

Anyone have photographs?

Some of them should have kept their shirts on!

But you just can't say no to the rare site of a woman going topless in public in the USA.

The girl in pic '19' is pretty hot. Hopefully we will see a few more of her...

"PORTLAND, Maine (CBS/WGME/AP) Some people's jaws hit the ground, plenty of men showed up with cameras, and others - including parents with their children - were just plain offended, as almost two dozen topless women marched in Maine's largest city.

The women drew a crowd of over 500 onlookers when they shed their shirts and marched in downtown Portland on Saturday to promote what they call "equal-opportunity public toplessness."

Organizer Ty MacDowell said the point of the march was that a topless woman out in public shouldn't attract any more attention than a man who walks around without a shirt.

Good luck with that.

According to The Portland Press Herald, by the end of the march more than 500 people had amassed - a mix of marchers, young men snapping photos, oglers and people just out enjoying a warm sunny day.

"We should be able to walk down the street and not have this many men taking pictures of us," a participant shouted according to CBS affiliate WGME."

Has anybody saved this? Is there any chance it could be posted to Rapidshare? It's just my internet connection appears to be too slow to stream it . . .

The only way to accomplish that is for more women to do it frequently so that we all get used to it!
