They have my, er, support
At least, in the abstract. But I think they're being a bit silly, really. They want to take off their shirts at soccer games? That is the last place you'd catch me topless. And what exactly is the point, anyway? Is wearing a shirt really that hard?
My town actually allows public nudity, and I have no problem with that. It is being re-thought in the downtown shopping areas lately, but people swim nude in the swimming holes outside of downtown, and no one cares. A swimming hole is a perfectly natural place to skinny dip. A soccer game? Well, if you want to, it's OK with me, but I wouldn't do it myself.
Some women might have liberated themselves from the idea that their breasts are sexual, but I'm not one of them. I don't *want* to be liberated in that way. I like to skinny dip with my family, but at the next sporting event I attend, I'll be keeping my burqa - I mean bra - wrapped firmly around me.
