Women drop tops in 'boob' protest

Listen

In Ottawa, Canada, women have rallied for their right to go topless in public. “Bare with us! They’re just boobs” was written on placards and their bodies.

The protester who organized the rally was pulled over by police on July 24 for indecent exposure when riding her bicycle with her top off.

Ontario passed a law in 1996 stating that women can take their tops off in public places.

But organizers of the protest said that “There still is no place where women can take their top off in public without harassment from police or the public.”
