Residents of the New York city are up for an exciting Sunday as a large group of women will parade topless through the city’s streets, flashing their breasts as they show their support for feminist liberation while celebrating the annual GoTopless Day. The parade commemorates the 95th anniversary of Women’s Equality Day, when women were given the right to vote in America.
GoTopless is a feminist group that fights for women’s liberation and it also campaigns for women’s freedom to go topless across the world. Interestingly, local laws in New York allow women to publicly bare their breasts while the police seals off the city streets during their topless march from Columbus Circle to Bryant Park. To show their solidarity to the GoTopless women, large groups of women from Los Angeles and other US and European cities will also parade topless from 12:30 PM on Sunday.
“People should not feel that it needs to be a taboo” to go topless, says Rachel Jessee, the head of the GoTopless’ New York chapter. “It’s a human right, and women should be created equally, but a lot of people view it as something very sexual,” said Jessee, who is also an actress, model and performer. GoTopless also encourages men to take part in the march as it sees both men and women in the equal perspective.
