Greg Beato is adamantly opposed to topless coffee shops:
A topless post office might be a useful innovation. A topless dry cleaner, too. Those are boring, utilitarian places where delightfully unfamiliar torsos would be a welcome distraction. But coffee shops, in their standard incarnations, are already pleasant places to fritter one’s life away amidst a cozy blend of caffeine, baked goods, Norah Jones, and argumentative but convivial layabouts. If you spend a lot of time in coffee shops and a lot of time in strip clubs, the idea of combining the two might seem appealing from a time-saving perspective — but who really wants to make their pleasures more efficient?
