Head to a beach this summer and you might see a bunch of women walking around with their nipples on show. But, before you drop your ice-cream cone on the floor and gawk, know that all may not be as it first seems. The women may very well be sporting the new TaTa Top - a bikini top with two pink nipples emblazoned onto the cups. At first glance the top may seem like some hilarious prank, but dig slightly below the surface and its creators have a distinctly more feminist agenda. While men are free to walk shirtless as they please, being topless if you're a woman is illegal in some American states. With that in mind the bizarrely realistic garment has been created in order to tackle the lack of gender equality when it comes to bearing all. On their website the makers of the bikini, Robyn Graves and Michelle Lytle, write: "Why can’t girls be topless? If you really think about it, what’s the difference between a man’s nipples and a woman’s? Is it really just the extra breast tissue? Is it the fact that women’s nipples are paired with a vagina? "Is it the presence of a real and true female nipple bare to the world that is so offensive, that is so horrid that it must be kept covered? "Who is this law protecting and what are they protecting them from? What message does it send to young women about their bodies? That they should be ashamed and keep them covered?" Although not directly associated, the bikini hits (online) shelves in the wake of the #FreeTheNipple movement. The campaign - originally started by filmmaker Lina Esco - has seen hundreds of women parade topless around New York to end gender-specific double standards. The TaTa Top will allow women to support the campaign in a way that's completely legal (and brilliantly sneaky). "You look topless...but you aren’t, and therefore, are not breaking any laws," the website reiterates. "If the sight of uncovered nipples makes you shudder in fear or pop off in anger, then game on and may the breast girl win." Happy customers have already been wearing the top with pride and posting some utterly fabulous snaps on Instagram... Poster Comment: Did you really think you'd get some gratuitous cleavage without a healthy dose of feminism to accompany a headline like this??? Ain't no free lunch (or boobies)..... :)

Fitting that she starred in And God Created Woman.
“The most dangerous man to any government is the man who is able to think things out... without regard to the prevailing superstitions and taboos. Almost inevitably he comes to the conclusion that the government he lives under is dishonest, insane, intolerable.” ~ H. L. Mencken
It is times like these That I think the greatest mistake we made in the early 20th century after declaring war on Germany, creating the Federal Reserve and the IRS was giving women the right to vote. Maybe not. If Jews were banned from politics as they were in the Byzantine Empire, then maybe white women and men would not be led astray.

Nope, no nipples visible there. More risque than anything from a 1906 magazine ad, for sure, but it hardly rises to the level of a Hustler centerfold. That was really the only point I was trying to make, vulgar and sexy are not at all the same.

Banning jews from the country would have been smart, as would have keeping the poll tax for anyone to vote on anything.

Do they make them with brown nipples as well? Or is this just for fucked up white chicks?
A rainbow coalition against Jews doesn't require Whites or Pro-Whites. It can be just as brown or anti-white as you like.
Agree 100%. A rainbow coalition against Jews doesn't require Whites or Pro-Whites. It can be just as brown or anti-white as you like.
Nipples *and* a cowboy hat? I'm in love... A rainbow coalition against Jews doesn't require Whites or Pro-Whites. It can be just as brown or anti-white as you like.
People who can't help but riot when the local zoo offers a day of free admission would most certainly balk at paying 75 cents to vote. Poll tax is one of the greatest achievements of our ancestors, right up there with having US Senate chosen by the states (as it was prior to Amendment XVII - passed at the height of the "Progressive Era". Do you know what a Progressive is? It's a f*****g Communist that can afford toilet paper but wants to climb the social ladder by preventing everyone else from being able to. corruptissima re publica plurimae leges - Tacitus
Shit, we need to start screaming "oppression", Obama make sure the the brown nipple version are considered a human right. corruptissima re publica plurimae leges - Tacitus
Depends on the beholder, but the sight of Bridget's shoulders and that captivating smile are timeless.
Yes, the electorate has been lowered, on all levels, down to the most common voter possible. It's criminal, imo. “The most dangerous man to any government is the man who is able to think things out... without regard to the prevailing superstitions and taboos.

if we're going to shudder anyway...maybe we should give it a run first ? LOL! That's tagline material my friend. Americans who have no experience with, or knowledge of, tyranny believe that only terrorists will experience the unchecked power of the state. They will believe this until it happens to them, or their children, or their friends. Paul Craig Roberts "When plunder becomes a way of life for a group of men living together in society, they create for themselves in the course of time a legal system that authorizes it and a moral code that glorifies it." Frederic Bastiat
Remember Wendy O. Williams!! She was ahead of the curve, she wore BLACK bandaids...

"If you love wealth more than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, depart from us in peace. We ask not your counsel nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you. May your chains rest lightly upon you and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.”—Samuel Adams

Band Aids, "Flesh" colored crayons, ... it doesn't take much to set off an urban riot. Especially asking why "they" can't start their own band-aid/crayon company instead of whining about names civilized folk have used since time immemorial for crayons. Just like Band Aids!

My musician friend and I saw Mark, Don, and Mel at the Bronco Bowl (since closed) in Dallas back around 1996: they ROCKED and there were more UBER-HAWT women in their late 30's/40's than I've EVER seen at any other concert. True story.

I like this one.... Three songs from the film "Get You're Self a College Girl" directed by Sidney Miller. The songs are: "The Girl From Ipanema" performed by Astrud Gilberto, Stan Getz on tenor saxophone with Gary Burton on vibes, Gene Cherico on bass and Joe Hunt on drums. Astrud Gilberto (March 29, 1940 age 74) was born Astrud Weinert, the daughter of a Brazilian mother and a German father, in the state of Bahia, Brazil. She was raised in Rio de Janeiro. She married João Gilberto in 1959 and emigrated to the United States in 1963, continuing to reside in the US from that time. Astrud and João divorced in the mid-1960s and she began a relationship with her musical partner, American jazz saxophone player Stan Getz.[1]
