There is a new movement sweeping the internet, and that is for the freedom for women to go topless in public. They make an interesting point to the fact that it used to be unacceptable for men to topless in public at one point. Now that it is no longer considered "sexual" or "men shouldn't have to worry about being sexually objectified" when being topless, shouldn't women also have that same right?

Christians should not endorse this movement, but it is a part of our culture. How should we as a people? It may very well impact our society to a point where our daughters may one day wish to go topless at a beach. Thoughts as to how to navigate?

This is something that needs to be nippled in the bud! But we first need to find you scripture, to take on this issue, tit for tat.

(Trends considered, this thread should be good for at least 50 pages... longing for the days of "Who Killed Goliath?", anymore.)

Ask them 'why stop there '?
Well on second thought maybe men should put their shirts back on.

Things are getting more evil just like the days of Noah.

"And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man" (Luke 17:26).

A lot less men have boobs, than are boobs. The intractable problem, with the latter, is there's no way of covering it up.

I think that our most important consideration must be that our response must not compromise the central doctrine of Salvation by Grace.

Our response to those who are saved can center on not compromising our testimony; but our response to the world must focus on their need for Christ and NOT on their behavior.


Our witness to the world should be that God will accept them as they are; but will not leave them as they are.

As a result of accepting Jesus as Lord we must expect our desires to more and more resemble His.


Just as one can NOT expect adult behavior from a baby; it is NOT realistic to expect Christian behavior from the world; and any attempt to force it on them will only compromise our witness.


In short: Get used to it; or don't go out without your wife or (if unmarried) your sweetheart.

The best response is really no response. Perhaps if we ignore them they will get bored and go away?

The bible teaches modesty not nudity but females inclined to walk about in public topless is not likely to respond to scripture.

For the cause of Christ

No, it is lewdness from it's conception, I can't believe we are even considering it. What is the fuel that is driving this - Testosterone. Then how are we separate from the word, in this I praise you not.

Self control

Exposing ones sins in scripture is symbolized as ones nakedness being exposed. It used to be people had a conscience toward sin, and even a feeling of shame for it. But nowadays their is pride in sin, just like gay pride. We see legalization of sin, showing lawlessness and rebellion toward the words of God. But it is as the Lord said it would be, the last state of mankind shall be worse than his first concerning this wicked and adulterous generation.

Isaiah 47:3
Thy nakedness shall be uncovered, yea, thy shame shall be seen: I will take vengeance, and I will not meet thee as a man.

Nahum 3:5
Behold, I am against thee, saith the Lord of hosts; and I will discover thy skirts upon thy face, and I will shew the nations thy nakedness, and the kingdoms thy shame.

Revelation 3:18
I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.



Isaiah 3:9
The shew of their countenance doth witness against them; and they declare their sin as Sodom, they hide it not. Woe unto their soul! for they have rewarded evil unto themselves.

I support modesty, in that case I feel we should wear more clothes not less. Men wearing shirts and nipples being censored as well as females. I think people should be promoting this instead of allowing females to do the same. We are almost there to where who cares about wearing clothes.

I think Christians should respond with their own movement for modesty...Who's in?! *fist pumps*

At the end of the day...evil men, women and seducers shall wax worse and worse as humanity is marching rank and file to destruction and the end of the age......We can make a stand against many things as we have such as abortion, homosexuality etc. and at the end of the day the ones lost outnumber the saved by about 99%.....the best way to combat evil is to teach and raise generations of children that know, embrace and stand for the truth along with the adults making a stand as well.....but....unfortunately it will go the way it is going to go........

Modesty is the issue, not nudity or nakedness.
Mammary glands are not sex organs. If a person has a fixation with them, the problem is cultural/personal, not with the glands themselves. To say this bluntly: boobs are for babies. That is the ethical approach. They have a good purpose, and anything outside of that purpose leans to unethical territory.

Now, on to the spiritual matter, and a spiritual approach: MODESTY!
Is it modest for an fit and attractive man to walk around shirtless? No. I would tell any man to put his shirt back on if my daughters were around.
Does this same principle not also apply to women? Even more so! Even the most average of women possesses twice the beauty of the handsomest man, and who can deny it?
If you are proud of what is hidden beneath your clothing, SAVE IT FOR YOUR MARRIAGE! Have some modesty. That goes for men and women. Swimming, jogging, working, or casual... there is no excuse for vanity.

Can we stop the unsaved from acting like heathens? No.
But we don't need to act like them, or support their vanity.

Lesson of the story: keep your shirts on.
