How can it be illegal for a woman to go topless, and legal for a man?

Both have breasts, just men have smaller ones. What if a woman had very small breasts? Or a man had large breasts?

Women's breasts are considered as part of a reproductive type organ because they produce milk for nursing a baby. Men do not do this.

On that note, if a man with very large "breasts" is going topless, that should be a crime on its own.

You have a good point, in fact two very good points.

Because of decency. Citizens of a state are allowed to set standards of decency. It has nothing to do with rights; free speech is also subject to standards of decency with regard to time, manner and place.

And it's not illegal for a woman to go topless, it is illegal for a woman to go topless in a public place. What exactly is public and what is private has to do with the question of expectation of privacy. If I want to go topless in my backyard which has a high privacy fence, and someone goes out of his way to look at me, then he is committing the crime, not me.

Some men have larger breasts than some women.

It is LEGAL in NYC for women to walk around topless....if you try it they will arrest you though....you just have to point out the fact that you aren't breaking any law...
