Topless Reading Club - Updated

Definitely NSFW is The Outdoor Co-Ed Topless Pulp Fiction Appreciation Society website which professes to make reading sexy. More than two dozen NSFW images of attractive topless women are displayed.

Interestingly, the pictures on the website indicate that all the women have been reading the same book for at least three weeks.

Topless Reading Club
[Previous 9/8/11 post]
(New York City) Officially, it's called The Outdoor Co-Ed Topless Pulp Fiction Appreciation Society (TOCETPFAS) but you could call it the topless reading club where women, aged between 19 and 42, meet and read without their shirts.



According to TOCETPFAS spokeswoman Alethea Andrews:

”Guys lie around topless in the park all the time, while the girls around them are sweating in bras and shirts.

”That’s just silly when the law says we can go topless the same as they can.

”The group’s overall aim is for girls who want to take advantage of the legality of being topless in New York to be able to, while reading books.

”We want this to go from being something taboo to something of social inconsequence.”

At the link, there are NSFW pictures of TOCETPFAS members reading at various places around NYC. Interestingly, in the images every woman appears to be reading the same book. What are the odds?

[Add.] According to a comment from JW, reading clubs tend toward having all members read the same book. I'll not disagree but my experience is different.

Maybe it's a function of format. My one experience with a club had everyone reading whatever was appealing and we would meet over coffee once a week for a discussion period. It was organized by the local library which encouraged participants to read, read, read, a variety of books. (I recall being on a biography kick and could easily plow through several in a week. Others tackled historical novels which took much more time.)

In any event, my own experience deemed it odd that they were all reading the same book. To me, the books appeared to be mere props in the women's campaign to get noticed. In reality, topless women usually don't need props to get noticed.

Of course, there's another angle to consider. Maybe the women want to convey the message that they're not typical topless bimbos, they am smart.

Since I don't know the women nor how they have organized, I'll allow that I could be completely wrong. Nonetheless, one thing is certain. Something appears odd with me for putting more focus on their bookbags than their funbags.
