A Berkeley law that makes public displays of the female breast illegal could be abolished this month if a city councilman gets his way.

On September 12, the city council will vote on the insane ordinance.

The nudity ordinance as it stands makes it a misdemeanor or infraction for a woman to expose “any portion of the breast at or below the areola” — similar to municipal codes across the country. Under the new proposal, anyone could go topless in the city without regard to gender.

Kriss Worthington, the progressive councilman who has represented a student-heavy district near UC Berkeley for two decades, said the indecent exposure law is antiquated and sexist.

Begging the question, why not just allow full-nudity to eliminate any confusion about who is and who isn’t a transgender?
