Go Topless Sunday

According to the website, Go Topless, (http://www.gotopless.org/index.php), Sunday, August 23rd is Go Topless Day, in celebration of Womens Equality Day.

I'm not exactly sure who is behind the Go Topless website, although there is a link to Rael, a Frenchman who was a singer and race car driver before meeting an alien from another planet. Yeah, I'm a bit confused, too. You can see his website at http://rael.org/rael_content/index.php

So back to Go Topless day. Apparently, there are several celebrations/protests set for Sunday, in New York City, Miami Beach, Venice Beach, Portland, Oregon, Columbus Ohio and Chicago.

Noticeably absent from the list is Austin, Texas, where topfree sunbathing used to be the norm at Barton Springs, and is still technically legal, if not practiced.

Personally, I think its a good idea, but we've seen this type of promotion before, and it has been a bitter failure, mainly due to lack of participation, or too many people who are there for sexual reasons.

But anyway, happy Go Topless Sunday.
