WASHINGTON – The Supreme Court refused Monday to hear a challenge to a law barring women from going topless in public.

The justices, already struggling to keep abreast of controversial disputes over issues such as abortion and sexual orientation, decided not to expose themselves to the New Hampshire case.

Three women active in the "Free the Nipple" movement had challenged their 2016 convictions for violating a Laconia, N.H., ordinance prohibiting exposure of “the female breast with less than a fully opaque covering of any part of the nipple.” They said it violated the 14th Amendment's equal protection clause because it applies to women but not men.

"Gender classifications grounded in obsolescent norms that sexually objectify and shame women cannot survive this court’s heightened scrutiny," attorneys for the women argued in court papers.

New Hampshire Attorney General Gordon MacDonald responded that the women were seeking a decision requiring "every beach in the nation to allow topless sunbathing."

"The petitioners offer no basis on which to require such a drastic overhaul of rules that reflect accepted social norms," MacDonald wrote.

The decision just reeks of sexism, genderism, and white male privilege

I would assume "white male privilege" would constitute unbridled ogling. Merely to assert the privilege, of course...
