| Message | What are thoughts on semi-nudity? The majority don't seem to find a topless man offensive yet many find a topless woman offensive... |

| Message | I tend to agree with this. If people want to go completly nude then they should be have a right to, but also it should be allowed only in designiated areas. I'll support. |

| Message | Seems to make sense, though I would support a general law on toplessness. If men can go topless then so can women, if this isn't acceptable than neither should be allowed to go topless. |

| Message | I don't see whats so offensive to be honest. It's not a specifically offensive thing in my opinion. |

| Message | Shouldn't we be focusing our attention on catching real criminals? |

| Message | @USM: I don't think the police will be monitoring nudists to stop them walking down the street in the buff, it's merely a public order issue and will be dealt with as and when it happens. |
