I live in the right city
One of my signature party moves, as anyone who has ever gotten drunk with me can attest, is exposing my breasts. I think that this is my way of revelling in the fact that my rack is pretty cantastic after an adolescence characterized by all the boys in my eighth grade class making fun of me for being flat-chested. In most areas, flashing the girls will get me some sort of citation for indecent exposure. However, it seems that my decision to pursue my doctoral studies in New York City has been fortuitous in more ways than one, according to this news article:
Tits out and beers up to you, Phoenix Feeley!
[RAZZY UPDATE: My friend HippieSympathizer, after freely admitting in an e-mail that "I haven't had a chance to check out RAZZY.org lately," just sent me the link to the above article with the comment, "I saw this and thought of you." My tit-showing is a thing of legend.]
New York City pays $29,000 for arresting topless womanYou go, Jill Coccaro AKA Phoenix Feeley! Even though with her new name, you know this ho is some type of detestable hippie artfag type, I have to applaud her efforts to ensure that slutty exhibitionists like myself can continue exposing our knockers with impunity for some time to come. Just to salute her efforts, I may as well dig out this classic:
NEW YORK (AP) -- A woman arrested for exposing her breasts has accepted a $29,000 settlement from the city, her lawyer said.
Jill Coccaro, 27, was arrested on a topless stroll two years ago, despite a 1992 state appeals court ruling that concluded women should have the same right as men to take off their shirts.
Coccaro, who now goes by the name Phoenix Feeley, remained in custody for 12 hours before she was told prosecutors were not going to pursue charges.
Her attorney, Jeffrey Rothman, told the Daily News that his client won the civil rights settlement from the city, which did not admit or deny wrongdoing.
"We hope the police learn a lesson and respect the rights of women to go topless," Rothman said.
Feeley told the New York Post that she was not treated well after her August 4, 2005, arrest in Manhattan's Lower East Side section. She claimed in an October lawsuit that a police officer yanked her out of a patrol car by her hair and police took her to a hospital for a psychiatric evaluation.
She told the newspaper she had gone bare-breasted after running the 2004 city marathon without police bothering her.
"I've always just felt that was something natural," Feeley said of going topless. "I've kind of always done it out of practicality."
Tits out and beers up to you, Phoenix Feeley!
