If people are already doing it with clothes, what's the harm in making it legal to be naked? Fuck, we're all human. Let's be real, people are just too prude to accept something like this.
Well, I didn't really appreciate the grown man rubbing his clothed genital at my backside on my way to school. Didn't help me much with my mental health either. Very likely would have been worse when he was naked.
Huh? Sexual assault is illegal. I'm sorry that happened to you, but that has nothing to do with the topic at hand.
Well I think it does. Sexual assault happens already often and I believe allowing people to be naked in public will increase the chance of sexual harassment and potentially even assault.
Do you believe how people dress makes them responsible for how others treat them? I.e., if a girl wears a skirt that's 'a little too short' and gets assaulted, was she asking for it?
No I don't. And that is not what I am saying at all.
All I am saying is that I believe in current society allowing people to be naked in public will increase the amount of sexual harassment.
I'm sorry for your experience but it doesn't make your opinion any more valid.
Why is my opinion ("I think allowing people to be nude in public will increase sexual harassment cases") invalid?
Because it is demonstrably incorrect
Because if you apply any critical thinking its obviously an incorrect assumption. And it is an assumption, you have no proof but your feelings. What was it y'all were saying about feelings a couple years back?
How does critical thinking show that my assumption is incorrect? Please enlighten me.
For the record, no one is diminishing what happened to you. Im really sorry to hear that. Those sexual acts should be punished. There is no question to that.
However punishing nudity just because some people are misbehaving is not right.
I am not saying to punish nudity, wth??
Yes, you are. You are suggesting that nudism shouldn't be allowed because it might increase sexual assaults.
If you are going to discuss something, read the whole discussion and reply to it, not just select one line.
I reacted directly to someone saying nudity in public in general should be allowed. I don't have a problem with allowing nudity in specific areas like beaches etc.
And what exactly is the problem of allowing nudity in public in general?
