Right to sunbathe topless triggers spontaneous protest in Rio beaches
A scantily clad group of female protesters drew a heavily breathing gaggle of journalists and cell-phone wielding onlookers to the beaches of Rio de Janeiro.

@1. You might have 'heard', but it ain't so!

Jan 22nd, 2015 - 01:11 pm - Link - Report abuse 0A substantial number of Brazilian women on the beach need to cover up more.
I had my share of sharing European beaches with topless grandmothers. Not a pleasant sight...
And yes, the two topless pictured are very very attractive.
I totally agree Chicu. We have that problem here as well. What's worse is when that dental floss is hidden by a flap or a roll of epidermis. It's worse when some are walking around in yoga tights and they should not be, only to find out they are sweats.

Thanks for the defense.
However, I yield as “mute” means something completely different.
Most women need to accentuate their bodies with clothing as being nearly nude only works for perhaps 20%. For that manner, only 5% of men to the gentile sex.
(Yes, I definitely belong to the men who should wear a burka. )

Jan 23rd, 2015 - 01:30 am - Link - Report abuse 0just trying to be helpful, but “the gentile sex.” ????
Gentile = a non-Jewish person
'the gentle sex' = a somewhat patronising term for women
genteel = old-fashioned English term for those considered to have social graces and good manners,
hope that helps, no offence intended.

PS: divest yourself of the repressive burhka. Live Free!!
I like the chubby one in the back... the one with granny armpits

This is up there with saying something really bad like.....Muslims are terrorists...............I like the top left on her knees.
