Ok I will speak my mind anyways.
Not meaning offense, but I mean with so much of real current women's rights issue being on the forced dress codes, like the hijab and niqab stuff, me thinks sometimes the women that do these topless protests should give the burka a try instead if they really care about women's rights and dress codes. Not as punishment or anything permanant, but maybe for a shift in perspective. I suppose though that this "movement" is more likely an excuse to wile out rather than being a genuine cause.

When the lewd, the rude, the crude and the nude start hammering at my door, with full government costitutional protections, so called, christians be damned, I believe we'll be escorted out of this world, and don't look back. Welcome to Sodom and Gomorrah! Does Pompeii come to mind? This is where it is all headed on fast track! Anybody care to talk about salt that has lost its strength? Some of this can be averted if only the branches could re-connect with the Vine! There I go again!
Believers should be told that they are responsible for maintaining their testimony. That is not antinomian!
Unbelievers cannot reasonably be expected to have a testimony!
1 Co 6:12
12 All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.
KJV
1 Co 10:23
23 All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but all things edify not.
KJV
If an unbeliever reads these verses and sees us trying to put them under law; how do we maintain credibility.
Until 1827, in some New England states, public nudity was used as a punishment for what the state deemed to be lack of self control. This public humiliation was often accompanied by whipping.
If some women want to voluntarily subject themselves to what was not very long ago used as criminal correction; the jeers and scorn of unbelieving onlookers will quickly assert themselves; and may be more effective than any law.
We in the meantime can refrain from compromising our witness.
As a result, they both understood what they had done, and they became aware that they were naked. So they sewed fig leaves together and made loincloths for themselves.
(Gen 3:7)
That awareness opened their eyes to the fact that they were naked which moved them to cover themselves to hide their nakedness from each other and God.
It seems that this goes right to the deepest core of man's being, so to deliberately strip naked in open society is only a reflection of their lost state from reality. It's conscience hardened to the Nth degree, where there is no shame. It is an open declaration to God saying 'You are not there'.

Really I am starting to regret even this topic exists, not blaming on making the topic, it is an actual part of reality, but rather why it even must exist to begin with which is out of all of our control obviously. People need a shirt then it seems to me, so an answer to give people clothes might be a good way to respond.

I'm cool with no clothing at all, back to nature 
and where I'm from we have that already
There are plenty of people who do such things and tribes that walk around naked. That never heard of a bible or Jesus in there life.
How will they be judge?

They've never heard of the Bible of Jesus? Then someone ought to go tell them dont you think? They will be judged the same as everyone who doesnt accept Jesus as their savior.Read the Bible and you will find out about the judgement and how you can avoid it.
Let us be honest here. We are talking ego and showing off. How many women with sag problems are going to strip off? For them all the support and padding they can get helps their self image.
So this is the teenage/early 20's group who like men looking at them.
So the answer is do you want to encourage those who are so much into self loathing, attracting attention this way boosts there self esteem while loosing their integrity or get real and put sexuality back in the box where it should be, females and males attracting each other to form long term relationships and children.
I have a friend whose spare time was spent lusting after women etc. and this behaviour is just playing to him approving of sexual abuse and turning young beautiful people into merely sexual gratification objects. He is being destroyed by his lusts, and it is so shaming, but he often says words like, don't judge me. He is just destroying all the normal functions of being a human and respecting life and love.
