It's in hopes to show people that it can be normal, that it's really not a big deal and it's not about getting attention or protesting,' she said.
This push for women to go topless in the 21st century is as strong as women wanting to vote in the 20th century,' she said. It may be sensual, but it's not illegal to be sensual.'
Nadine Gray, president of GoTopless, said she hopes the events will take away the shock and awe around seeing female breasts.
The events in New York City and Los Angeles were two of several planned for cities across the globe.
A few dozen women, and some men, went topless as they walked down Broadway in New York City. Onlookers gawked and took photos as the parade participants went by.
A group of about 50 women and men were walking topless in the oceanside Los Angeles neighborhood of Venice, behind a giant, inflatable pink breast that had the phrase equal topless rights\" written on it. One marcher carried a sign that said: \"My Body Is Not A Crime.'
