PORTLAND, ME — Dozens of women went topless on Saturday in a demonstration of women’s rights. Both residents and tourists in Portland, Maine were surprised by the march, which took place within city limits during the afternoon.
“Why do men get to whip off their shirts at any time, and nobody bats an eyelash?” asked one of the protesters, Cecil Corson (female). Other women at the demonstration shared Cecil’s sentiments, all hoping that the protest would help change the current cultural perception that it is only acceptable for a man to take his shirt off in public. According to these demonstrators, women should have the exact same rights as men when it comes to being comfortable outside of the home.
How effective were they in changing perceptions? The reporters at johnnytubesteak.com were onsite to collect comments from witnesses.
- Joe P., Portland resident: “Hey did you see all those boobs? That was awesome!”
- Harold F., Portland resident: “Ja-Ja-Ja-Jugs!!!”
- Sam D., Westbrook, ME: “I like boobs.”
- Thomas K., Hartford, CT: “Topless broads are great, but there were really only about five good boobs out there today. The two blonde twins’ [breasts] were great, and there was a chubbier brunette that had one nice one.”
Police on the scene said that although no permits were filed for the demonstration, the protest was peaceful and did not create any major problems. Added Officer Joseph Trudeau, “It always makes work more enjoyable when chicks start whipping out their funbags.”
Hey Mr. Funbags, might not seem so funny when your mom organizes one of these.
