Women in topless are very common; full nude people on public beach, no :)
(and by the way Italy is waaay far to be "one of the most religious Country in the world)

Yes, it is very common all over Europe. Slim, tall, short, fat, young, old...they all do it. Like someone else said, sometimes you really see stuff you just don't wanna see! :)

It seemed to be fairly common the last time I was in Sorrento.

Generally in Southern Europe it's much more common to see people topless on beaches, mainly because it's warmer. You don't generally see it in Ireland or Britain (the fresh wind can deter all but the hardiest of female nipples!), but it's not uncommon in Germany, the Netherlands, Scandinavia ...

I went to Italy this summer... And yes and whoever said its mostly the men isn't correct or at least the beach I went to it was WOMEN! And yes it was BAD

Topless: yes, Very common
Nude: no, only very small children or in private "specialized" beaches.

Girls usually go topless until they grow breasts (however, many little girls prefer wearing bikinis like their moms, but just because they want to look like grown ups). Personally, I don't think this is disgusting at all...A bikini is rather unconfortable if you don't have breasts to keep it in place!!!!!!

No, it is not so common. It is more common in the rest of Europe, surely!

Hey, I'm from Italy so trust me. Topless has been generally accepted since the early 90's - from memory, however nude is not, only in certain/secluded beaches, not public ones. Yes it's a religious country, however it has lots of contraddictions (and so do the US don't you think? :)

Nude or topless bathing in one of the most religious countries in the world??

Are you sure??

No, ain't gonna happen. They even frown at men taking their shirts off.

Yep, especially the men
