TLDR If I get arrested for being topless as a trans women the outcome would either be
1: it's illegal, which would be a win for trans women as we would be considered closer to cis women, or
2: it's legal which would be a win for free the nipple movement because it could be argued "that trans women can do it and their boobs are the same as ours"

My guess is you would be charged as a male sex offender and also beaten by police

male sex offender

But how? Going topless as a male is fine, right?

Where I live, If you went to a public space topless where it wasn't the norm (beach or swimming pool basically) you would be approached by police regardless of gender
