GoTopless Day 2014 will fall on Sunday Aug. 24. GoTopless Day always falls at the Sunday closest to Women's Equality Day, Aug 26. It is indeed on Aug 26, 1920 that women earned their right to vote on the
basis of Gender Equality. In 1971, in the USA the US Congress has made Aug 26 into a nationally recognized date and named it "Women's Equality Day".
The president of the United States is summoned to commemorate this date each year.
It is only logical that GoTopless Day protests (or celebrations depending on the legal status of your city) would fall around Women's Equality Day since the right to go topless for women is based on gender
equality as their right to vote once was.
In 1894 South Australian Women were granted the right to vote followed by Western Australia in 1899, NSW in 1902 and finally Victoria in 1908. Australian women (except indigenous women) were enfranchised for the new Commonwealth Parliament in 1901.
Women first voted in second Federal election in 1903.
In 1962 the right to vote in federal elections was granted to Australian indigenous women who, together with Australian indigenous men, had been specifically excluded from the franchise in Australia by
the Commonwealth Franchise Act 1902.
On Sunday Aug. 24th 2014, people in
cities around the world are invited to stand up for women's right to go topless in public...the same as men.
Please contact us if you would like to organize an
event in your area so we can list your venue on our "Boob Map" 2014 . (Please refer to our legal map in our section topless laws to know the topless status in your state and call your council or authority to know what your city's is)
As we all know the indigenous people of this great country Australia has no issues about being topless before the arrival of white-man with dogma and the now outdated taboos of the western world which were enforced and encourage and indoctrinated upon indigenous women of this great land.On this point of seeking real and true equality together this movement is an important step helping us all return to our natural earthly roots and being one with each other along with standing up for equal rights and respect.
