Okay, first of all, I would like to take a moment to make sure everyone understands that I have no hatred towards those who do support “Free the Nipple.” I am writing my opinion of why I personally do not support this movement and I will explain why.
First off, why do women want to be just like men, if not better? We are women, they are men. Our bodies are different, plain and simple. Walking around topless has never once been an issue in all of America, until now. Why? Why try to be equal to men to the point we treat our bodies as the same? Women have breasts, men do not, I don't see the issue here.

Women’s breasts are very different compared to men’s pecs. Breasts are a sign of woman’s maturity, breasts are used to feed babies, and breasts and their nipples are nothing compared to men’s pecs! So stop. It is okay for men to have different standards than women based on our biological differences. We have different bathrooms, different clothing departments, different doctors, even different golf tees.
Another reason that I disagree with this movement is because I feel as if this movement is trying to de-sexualize breasts. A woman’s breasts, in my opinion, can and should be considered sexually and do attract sexual partners. What's the problem with having something that men like? Breasts are used for other natural reasons, but I believe that nipple should not be seen by every person on the street. They should be private and shared only with a child for feeding or a loved one during love-making.
I also believe the same women who are supporting this movement are the ones who get angry for some women who show cleavage in pictures. Cleavage and nipples are not the same things!
Also, porn and walking down the streets topless are not the same thing! If you want to do porn, then go ahead.
Stop comparing yourself to celebrities who have millions of dollars and just want attention for showing skin. You are not Beyoncé.
I do understand that a major reason for this movement is mostly because of some of the crazy rules and such placed on girls and women are outlandish. It is okay for our shoulders to show or our bra strap, little things of that nature are okay and some people do over react. However, too much is too much. No need to completely want to go topless over a few issues that can be easily pointed out and discussed.
I do laugh at those who want to show their nipples but are the same women who overprotect their children. How will you explain to your small children when they see tons of nipples hanging out in their faces? What will you say when your eleven-year-old daughter wants to walk around topless? I believe that women need to realize that their breasts and nipples are biologically different than a man’s.
All in all, I support each person and their beliefs and values. However, my beliefs and values are not to treat men and woman as if they are completely the same. We are not the same, our bodies are not the same. It is okay to be different. Instead of trying act like we are equals, maybe women should empower who they are and their differences from a man’s body.
