Excellent article and so timely in light of Santa Cruz's pole dancing controversy. (For one sided coverage, see ). I have thought about this issue many times before. I like the idea of baring your breasts for peace (in My Mother, The Virgin and Me) -- although I would bet that someone would eventually try to put it out as pseudo-porn as was the case with the peace bodies pictures taken a couple of years ago. I appreciate your saying that women and men are both to blame in this problem. At this point, I've resolved to support breast feeding/breast feeding mothers by making it as easy and comfortable for them to nurse in public and to liberate myself by enjoying toplessness in envirnoments where I'm not likely to encounter lechers.
