Nantucket residents vote to allow everyone to go topless at beaches
By Yaron Steinbuch
May 5, 2022
Nantucket is one step closer to opening up all the beaches on the tiny Massachusetts island to topless bathers.
Residents voted 327-242 at the annual town meeting Tuesday night to pass the Gender Equality on Beaches bylaw amendment that will allow beach bums to go topless, the Boston Globe reported.
“We did it, we made it!” sex educator Dorothy Stover, who proposed the amendment, said on Instagram after the victory, though she noted the measure must still be approved by the state attorney general’s office before it becomes law.
“Being topless is not being nude,” Stover said at the meeting. “This bylaw would not make beaches nude beaches. This bylaw would allow tops to be optional for anyone that chooses to be topless.”

Makes sense... Since they can't tell the difference between a man and a woman...

Good point. But with all the old men with sagging "man boobs",it might even make things more confusing. The bikini tops at least helped to identify the women.

Lets be honest - the people that will go topless will absolutely be the ones you do NOT want to see topless.

There once was a man from Nantucket...

Meh. So what. They can dig out their old fanny packs, open 'em up and wear 'em in front if they get tired of the slapping on their knees...

Just for you!One of the candidates most likely to take advantage of the new policy. (https://i.imgur.com/2ZODtS7.gif)

Teresa Heinz and J. Effing Kerry live part-time in Nantucket. Let's hope Madame Gin Raisin doesn't take advantage of the new standards of undress.

Fortunately, Nantucket is just a very large sand bar ... hopefully Global Climate Change, if it's real, will submerge that limousine liberal island of hypocrisy

Yep...
These beaches won't be populated with Swedish Bikini Team members.

Oh, the horror. What an outrage! Allowing the people of Nantucket to set their own laws regarding beach attire?

Palma de Mallorca the beaches are topless. As an American I had to really adjust to that. Young girls, super hot twenty year olds (my age at the time), to pregnant mothers, they were all there. Didn't really see any old or obese women because they tend to stay away from the sun and do not really care for the beach. At first, it was a wild culture shock for sure. But honestly after a couple of hours, it became simply normal. How many boobs can you look at before you are desensitized?
On the side: saw my first real live actual bullfight there. That was another shock. To cut the story short, it is very far from a 'fair fight'. The bull is weakened in various ways before it is released. And even if it wins, it loses. But that is a different thread.
