Colorado city officials have removed a topless ban from city law that inspired a Free the Nipple lawsuit.

The Coloradoan reported that Fort Collins City Council agreed Tuesday to remove language in the public nudity code that barred women and girls over age 10 from exposing their breasts in public.

City officials say the ban is expected to be removed Sept. 17.

Officials say a district court judge and a federal appeals court have ruled against the policy in the past two years.

      Actually, I picture it kind of evolving into a metropolitan Scandinavia kind of scene with topless sunbathing in the parks at lunchtime in the summer - not everywhere, not all the time, but also not scandalous or even remarkable when it does happen.

      Fort Collins, only 40 years behind Copenhagen and Amsterdam, not bad for an upstart colony full of puritan prudes.

        I guess the AC above has never been around Boulder, Colorado in the summer. Also seems the Colorado City folks are about 45 years behind places around central California places like San Francisco, Santa Clara County, Santa Cruz County, Monterey Country, etc.
