If you had to guess, Berkshire County, what popular vacation getaway do you think will be allowing women to go topless this summer? Well, topless while they're at the beach, anyway.

You got it! The "Grey Lady" herself, Nantucket. Yesterday at a town meeting, Nantucket residents approved the proposal, voting 327 to 242 in favor. That means, starting this summer, the ladies will be allowed to go topless on the island's beaches.

Keep in mind that it's not a done deal yet. Massachusetts Attorney General Maura Healey still needs to approve the measure. If she does give approval, the measure could go into effect by August.

When I first heard about this "proposal", I was absolutely certain that a man was behind it. It just seems like something we would do. But apparently, a woman was behind the proposal.

According to WHDH/News 7 Boston, the woman, a lifelong resident of Nantucket, said she wanted to bring equality to the beaches. To reiterate, the "topless" measure will only cover beaches on the island. No other public areas will be included.

LOOK: Here are the 50 best beach towns in America

Every beach town has its share of pluses and minuses, which got us thinking about what makes a beach town the best one to live in. To find out, Stacker consulted data from WalletHub, released June 17, 2020, that compares U.S. beach towns. Ratings are based on six categories: affordability, weather, safety, economy, education and health, and quality of life. The cities ranged in population from 10,000 to 150,000, but they had to have at least one local beach listed on TripAdvisor. Read the full methodology here. From those rankings, we selected the top 50. Readers who live in California and Florida will be unsurprised to learn that many of towns featured here are in one of those two states.

LOOK: Best Beers From Every State

To find the best beer in each state and Washington D.C., Stacker analyzed January 2020 data from BeerAdvocate, a website that gathers user scores for beer in real-time. BeerAdvocate makes its determinations by compiling consumer ratings for all 50 states and Washington D.C. and applying a weighted rank to each. The weighted rank pulls the beer toward the list's average based on the number of ratings it has and aims to allow lesser-known beers to increase in rank. Only beers with at least 10 rankings to be considered; we took it a step further to only include beers with at least 100 user rankings in our gallery. Keep reading to find out what the best beer is in each of the 50 states and Washington D.C.

LOOK: Milestones in women's history from the year you were born

Each passing year and new milestone makes it clear both how recent this history-making is in relation to the rest of the country, as well as how far we still need to go. The resulting timeline shows that women are constantly making history worthy of best-selling biographies and classroom textbooks; someone just needs to write about them.
