New Hampshire lawmakers have proposed a ban on women exposing their breasts in public, in response to a "Free the Nipple" movement that led two women to go topless at a beach last year. "This is about a movement to change the values of New Hampshire society," said Rep. Brian Gallagher. Without the law, he said, topless women will scare off families who vacation in the state.
