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.

    For example I don't want to see my boss' dick or even his bare torso, nor him mine, even if I look the better. Nor do I want to see his secretary's tits, at least not in the office environment - too distracting.

    That's culturally ingrained whether something like that is distracting or not. Not all cultures care about that kind of thing. Our goal should be to be a bit more enlightened and not mind the petty stuff like this.
