Ladies, would you go topless at a public pool?

[yvr girl]

Poll question: Ladies, would you go topless at a public pool?

I was at an outdoor pool today. I was reading, soaking up the sun and surveying the scene. I noticed to my left, that there was a woman sitting on her towel, and she was topless.

It's legal for women to go topless here, but you don't often see anyone taking advantage of it.

I have gone topless, but always in secluded locations, never in a crowd.

So, how brave are you? Would you do it?

[progmom]

1. It's the norm in Europe

:shrug:

depending on who i was with, i would prolly do it there.

[yvr girl]

3. It's not big deal if everyone is doing it

Would you be the only one doing it?

[progmom]

4. nope.

:hi:

[In_The_Wind]

2. not very brave at all ~ sometimes

[CaliforniaPeggy]

5. Sorry everybody! I would NEVER do it...

I could NOT do that, I would not care if everyone around me were doing it...the cultural imperatives I grew up under would stop me in my tracks.

:scared:

7. ....

9. you're very wise

there is no way would I be sitting topless at a public pool either

[CaliforniaPeggy]

11. It's not wisdom on my part...

I'm just waaaay too chicken to do it! Ahh. I think I now understand your owl in the post upthread...the symbol of wisdom, right?

OK, then if we go the pool with yvr girl and progmom, and they are topless, then you and I can go into the other corner, and stay clothed, OK?

[In_The_Wind]

12. it's a deal

and I'll share a story with you of my one personal sky-clad experience

[yvr girl]

28. Just to clarify

I was not topless at the pool

[FuzzySlippers]

8. I'm very modest. Here's what I wear at the pool.

[yvr girl]

10. That's very modest indeed.

[Misunderestimator]

29. LOL

Stunning.

[Schema Thing]

13. I loves me some beautiful titties!

but then again, I'm slightly drunk. Carry on.

[HEyHEY]

14. It's fucking sad it's even an issue

Even though in BC and most of Canada it's legal. The fucking years of teaching women their breast are something to be hidden have embeddem the idea on to the collective brain... with no reason.

[yvr girl]

16. You just want to see topless women by the lake

don't you?

[HEyHEY]

18. I can see topless women whenever I want - just don't tell my roomies

About the hole in the wall

[yvr girl]

19. The "Whole"

How about the "Hole"

[HEyHEY]

21. How bout you bite me!

[yvr girl]

23. That's a little forward, don't you think

We haven't even met.

[HEyHEY]

24. Hey, I have teeth marks all over from people I've never met

[GirlinContempt]

15. Yes, but

I don't deal well with the sun so it's more a 'if I didn't get horribly burntsun rashed'

[WCGreen]

17. I'll volunteer for the lotion rub.....

[GirlinContempt]

20. Thanks

But it doesn't help :P

[WCGreen]

22. That must be such a bummer to have toasted titties....

Ha Ha Ha Ha...

Couldn't help that one...

I am sooo Sorry....

:evilgrin:
:yoiks: :yoiks: :yoiks: :rofl: :yoiks: :rofl: :hide: :hide:

42. I used to do it

and I'm very pale. You just have to buy some really good sunscreen. An umbrella also helps keep the rays away.
Take it from experience-sunburned boobies hurt terribly. I actually blistered and have little freckle patches to this day where the blisters were.
You could always buy some body paint and paint a top on. It would keep the rays from hitting you really bad yet you'd still be topless.

[miss_kitty]

25. I did it in Menorca

but since I've been totally carved up (surgically speaking), I probably will never wear something as skimpy as a swimsuit again, so I voted other. It's no big deal if you don't feel self conscious about it. Guys do it all the time, and they have tits.

[liontamer]

26. yes

but i wouldn't during the day. I hate the idea of sundamaged skin and the skin on your chest is very delicate.

[GoddessOfGuinness]

27. I would do it if

Dumbyass and his cronies would resign.

[TrogL]

39. Put it in the campaign platform

You'd love Canadian or Italian politics. This is a no-brainer.

[XemaSab]

40. I would personally streak Washington

if that happened.

[Misunderestimator]

30. Depending on who's around... if it's just a bunch of men, no.

[Pool Hall Ace]

31. Heck yes, I would love to be able to let it all hang out.

Unfortunately, in America breasts are only considered becautiful if a baby is hanging off of them. Otherwise, they are disgusting and need to be harnessed in their place. :-(

[El Fuego]

32. I'd definitely do it if someone did it with me.

[noonwitch]

33. Not unless I have plastic surgery first!

The public does not want to see me topless.

[MissMillie]

34. No

If I let these girls loose, someone might get hurt.

[scarlet_owl]

35. You bet I would!

[Shell Beau]

36. Hubby likes to be the only one to see those!

[yvr girl]

37. Yes, but what do you like?

[Shell Beau]

38. I am pretty modest. But I respect the

way he feels about that. It really isn't uncommon for spouses to be protective of stuff like that. Even so, I probably wouldn't do it, just because that is one department that I am conservative in. But if others do it, then more power to them. I don't have a problem with it.

[xmas74]

41. when I was younger (meaning, before I nursed my daughter)

I did go topless even though it was not legal. I just didn't care. I'm glad I did it. I'm happy to know that I showed those puppies off to as many people as possible while they were still cute and perky!

[Telly Savalas]

43. Well, if we use the logic one finds in breastfeeding threads...

it's OK to go topless only if you do so discreetly.
