You Have To Fight For Your Right

Surely there are more important issues to be concerned about.
Swedes fight for topless rights

Swedish women have launched a campaign called Just Breasts which fights for their right to go topless on beaches and in swimming pools.

Scandinavian feminists were outraged when two women were asked to cover up their breasts by a lifeguard at a public pool near Stockholm.

One of the pair (sorry), 22-year-old Ragnhild Karlsson, said: 'If women are forced to wear a top, shouldn't men also have to?'

People don't sexualize nudity in Sweden the way they do here. I'm not saying that's a good or bad thing. They really just don't see a body the way we do.
