It is most likely legal in your state as well.
Is this legit or are you pulling my leg?
Edit: Everything I've seen supports this. Well I'll be.

That's pretty toxic. You're saying you only approve of topless breasts if they are aesthetically pleasing to you.
Not all women are afforded that fortune. Are you gonna be the guy to tell a woman with "ugly" breasts to cover up?
Read an issue of National Geographic.
You'll see photos of topless women in which bare breasts are not there for sexual appeal.
Breasts by themselves aren't sexy. They're just a body part.
Just like hands and feet are just body parts, but dress them up and they can convey a sexual message.

You automatically assume he's going to just run up to a girl and tell her to cover up? Do you run up to someone you don'\t find aesthetically pleasing and tell them to cover up as well?
Now you see how silly that sounds.
I don't exactly see the problem in allowing women to go topless.
Isn't it cold in Alaska? :O
You could find out by posting a picture of a topless woman.

Don't, unless you want to get banned

No.
Considering I won't be walking down the street providing women with my unsolicited opinion on the attractiveness of their breasts, no, I will not be telling women who possess breasts that are not pleasing to my eyes to "cover up".

It's true, but you can still get arrested for "inciting a riot" by going topless. I'm not joking.
Not all people are afforded the the fortune of an aesthetically pleasing face, but no-one would ask them to cover it up.
The way I see it? Lets just all walk around naked. Shouldn't be ashamed of how we look, or embarrassed about sexual attraction in general.

Never heard of that.
Here's pics of the event.
NSFW of course.

Breasts are not the same as genitalia.
Wasn't there a woman that smothered her boyfriend with her breasts?
Not in the sense of public hygiene, but in the sense of how girls and boys are socialized to feel that bigger is better, there are some similarities.
Also technically, breast cancer.

men do look at them sexually . i support these
Eh? Feet aren't designed for sexual appeal but are still sexually arousing to many men.
Couldn't it be just as plausible that cultures where topless women do not sexually excite men are the exception? I don't know which is the general rule, breasts being sexually appealing or not. Or maybe both situations are fully cultural.
I don't see any cops.
Same with butts and muscles.

I worked in a topless beach for a while.
Nude people are the chillest.
I honestly saw so many boobs of all shapes and sizes i didn't even care.

Keep losing Indiana.
Women would like to
I could see this attitude changing in the US and Canada soon.
Even think about how much clothes people used to wear to the beach and how little they wear now.
Yah, British Columbia isn't in Canada.
You have got to be kidding me.
I imagine some women out there don't see them as sexual objects, just another part of their body, and the social stigma they get prevents them from being as free with their body as men do.
Key word here.
huh?
I don't think I have a single friend who doesn't like their breasts both as sexual objects and as parts of their bodies.

Eh, nudity and sexual attraction can coexist peacefully i think.
It's quite easy really.
Think of breasts becoming similar to a woman's legs. In some instances, a woman's legs are simply two ordinary parts of her human body system. However in other instances and contexts they can be the object of someone's sexual desire.
In the same vein, perhaps by the mid point of this century, breasts can become normalized as sexual attitudes change, coexisting as both a mere body part and a sexual part rather than sharply leaning towards sexual part.
I feel our society would be healthier for it.
Sorry, I thought you didn't realize where the story in the op was from. Bad joke.

Yeah, if everyone was topless, there would be a lot less staring. like at...
Yep, everyone is topless, it's normal, so nobody really stares much.
But we're talking about BC, where you'll only see a woman going topless once in a blue moon. It'll never reach the point where you see a ton of women going topless. So when you actually see one, everyone will be staring.
Of course it's her right, I'm just wondering why anyone would subject themselves to all that ogling.
I absolute agree.
Women should be free to go topless whenever they want. I have no objections whatsoever.

I enjoy looking at men's chests, and part of that is probably sexual, so it's only fair for the reverse to be allowed.
I certainly hope so! Or else I'd be in violation a lot of the time.

Driving, posting on Gaf, AND topless at the same time? Unbelievable.
...first I'm hearing of this.
