Politicians in New Hampshire have rejected a Bill which would have made it a crime for women to expose their breasts or nipples in public.
The Bill - which would have made it a misdemeanour for women to show their breasts with "reckless disregard" for whether it would offend someone - was partly a response to a "Free the Nipple" movement that led to two women being cited for going topless at a beach.
Supporters of the Bill had warned that allowing women to go topless at beaches could lead to them doing the same at libraries and children's sports events.
But the New Hampshire House of Representatives voted against the Bill, which also caused a spat after a male policy-maker claimed that if women want to show their breasts publicly they should be OK with men wanting to "grab" them.
