Unfortunately, women have historically been used by men to make money. If women were allowed to remove their shirts, what would happen to the huge industries built around women baring their breasts for entertainment purposes? I don't think our lack of freedom comes from being prohibited from removing our shirts. It comes form our being objectified and from a country that allows and endorses male degredation of females. When women can walk the streets safely, we will have no freedom. Who cares whether or not we can remove our shirts?
