Do any of you go topless in public? I don't generally because I worry about offending people and that they may make comments about me. I would like to though. It seems my area is topless-friendly for the guys on beaches and parks.
I am shirtless basically 24/7. Due to an on-going foot problem I am forced to get around with bare feet and on crutches, and the crutches are so much easier to use without a shirt on. I used to be very self-conscious about being out in public bare chested but now I am quite used to it. I spent a week in Melbourne earlier this year and never wore a shirt the whole time I was there.
Australia has the misfortune of being full of prudes. I'd probably get told "No shirt, no service" or I'll be told that nobody needs to see that extra flesh its too revealing. However I do occasionally see shirtless guys mainly at parks but more rarely on the streets.
