i didn’t used to like going topless because of dysphoria but now that i like my body i think it’s bullshit that i have to hide my tits in places men get to have theirs out.
It's legal in New York but I am not yet brave enough to do it
Mostly because the thought of people not realizing that I HAVE tits and just thinking "oh, it's a guy" makes me want to turn to dust
I'm in New York State. Periodically a student at Russell Sage College goes topless while Doing Something. I smile, wave, make sure I stay 12 feet away, because GUY, and wish them a pleasant day.
I wish you bounteous confidence in walking around in a body that matches who you are, when you're ready.
I keep thinking about writing an alternate-universe novel based on women feeling safe being topless and dressing in a sexy manner wherever they want. It would necessitate such huge changes in our culture.
