Nips were freed across the world yesterday.
The 8th annual GoTopless Day took place in 60 cities around the world as part of the ongoing campaign to free the nipple.
‘Our goal is for equal gender topless rights to be enforced worldwide, freeing women’s nipples,’ said Rachel Jessee, the actress and model who leads the GoTopless group in NYC, where a topless pride parade took place on the streets of Manhattan.

Despite the fact it has been legal for anyone to walk around topless in New York since 1992, Mayor Bill de Blasio and Police Commissioner Bill Bratton are currently trying to get topless, body-painted women banned from the city’s Times Square, declaring them ‘a nuisance’.

Several streets in mid-Manhattan were blocked to traffic yesterday so around 300 topless protesters could parade through the city.

In Edinburgh, approx. 50 people took their tops off and staged a sit-in protest on the Royal Mile for two hours.

The Scottish weather, fortunately, held out for them.

Many of the protests took place in the US, where GoTopless Day takes place every year on the closest Sunday to Women’s Equality Day ( August 26), the date in 1920 when American women earned their right to vote.
In Washington, one women stood topless in front of the White House, posing as the Statue of Liberty.

And at Hampton Beach in New Hampshire, bare chested men and women defied the rain to take part in a photocall showing their support for the Free the Nipple movement, which fights against female oppression and censorship around the world.

The Free the Nipple campaign was started by US actress, director and activist Lina Esco, with a little help from pop provocateur Miley Cyrus, in protest against the fact that in America it is still illegal, a criminal act, for a woman to be publicly topless in 37 states.
GoTopless spokeswoman Rachel Jessee said: ‘It’s liberating and empowering for women to free their bodies from repression. Freeing nipples and bodies frees minds as well, restoring self-image and self-esteem.’
