How "FreeTheNipple" Will Damage the Economy

Titty bars

Men (not all men) pay actual money to see womens nipples. There is an entire industry of titty bars which capitalizes on this. An obvious effect of freeing women's nipples will be that such industries will decline since seeing women's nipples will no longer require a pay wall. Personally I would love to see a decline in such industries! It is to me a good thing!

Sexual advertisements

Many advertisements directed at both men and women make use of sexualized imagery of women, also of men, but much more of women than men. Sex sells. Yes sex sells but it only sells because of the mandatory modesty that is imposed upon women in our society. In many societies actually. Modesty when it comes to the chest area is optional for men, for women it is mandatory. As soon as modesty becomes more optional for women, which no doubt is already set in motion then sexual advertisements will no longer be as provocative because modesty for both men and women is now more optional than it was before. Sexual advertisements don't have any effect whatsoever on nudists, both men and women. Since modesty is 100% optional for them sex doesn't sell. Call me crazy but to me sexual advertisement is exploitation, therefore I wish to see it abolished completely and rather sooner than later!

Obviously for both men and women modesty should be optional, it should not be mandatory. If both men and women wish to feel more free by sacrificing some, or all modesty they should have the right to do so in the correct environment that is.

ps: I also believe that #freethenipple feels to women like it is something they are supposed to do. This is actually the opposite of what we should strive towards. I don't believe in anything mandatory when it comes to the human body. If both men and women had the ability to not have modesty nor immodesty forced upon them and their bodies that would be great!

Thanks for reading :)

  • This has got to be the most ridiculous justification I've seen yet.

    Do you honestly believe that women will suddenly all start walking around shirtless if it were legal/acceptable?
    And if so, do you think "titty bars" are "too big to fail" or that it would have significant impact on the economy?
    And even if it did, supply - demand. Ya some industries die out due to them being replaced by something better or there simply not being any demand. It's just how the world works

    And as for ads ya well the oversexualisation of women's bodies is big part of the point. It's not right that because womens bodies are used to sell everything women can't even feed their children in public.
    Sex is never gonna stop selling. If it did tho, the world survived for centuries without women in bikinis selling beer, I'm sure we can overcome that challenge again

    "I also believe that #freethenipple feels to women like it is something they are supposed to do"
    Well you're wrong. It's about a double standard. Several double standards actually
    "If both men and women had the ability to not have modesty nor immodesty forced upon them and their bodies that would be great" and that would actually be exactly what free the nipple is about

    • No reaction image or gif in this reply? you disappoint me.

    • This answer saved me from typing up my own counter argument, so thanks. My fingers hurt anyways. :)

    • So you're saying you would you prefer to de-sexualize a woman's nipple as allowing them to go bare chested often enough would lessen its shock value? You also say that it won't alter society at all because most women wouldn't indulge in it and they will still charge men to see their bare fronts (I actually agree with you here, only women desperate for male attention will show the boobs for "free.") I honestly can't tell if you are for or against freethenip based on your reply? You sound morally OUTRAGED by the suggestion of de-criminalizing the display of female chests (because you are a princess who hates sluts) but also optimistic that de-criminalizing the display of female chests would be a positive option for women (because you care about women's rights?) I'm confused.

  • Doubt it. The only women participating are the women you wouldn't be that thrilled to see topless anyways.

    • Lol i disagree. And i do so on hand of first hand experience.

  • Bikinis have been around forever and aren't considered indecent exposure, yet you don't see women walking around in them all the time. Heck you don't even see men walking around with their shirts off unless they're exercising or on the beach. "Free the nipple" doesn't mean women will throw their shirts away and just be walking around with their boobs out all the time. All it means is that female nipples shouldn't be considered indecent exposure or banned from social networking websites that allow male nipples. The economy will be fine. lol Not to mention that if people stopped using women's bodies as an advertising tool, it might not be such a bad thing... they'd simple be forced to come up with other ways to advertise!

    • "Free the nipple" doesn't mean women will throw their shirts away and just be walking around with their boobs out all the time." Obviously... " if people stopped using women's bodies as an advertising tool, it might not be such a bad thing... they'd simple be forced to come up with other ways to advertise!" Obviously desexualization of advertisement will be a good thing.

    • Sorry, I didn't thoroughly read your take. I thought you were saying that advertisers no longer being able to use women's bodies to advertise their products would be a bad thing.

  • I think the economy will be just fine.

  • apples to oranges until you're talking about moobs, neither sex wants to see those

    • But we see them anyway at the beach.

    • Venice boardwalk is what it is, keeping my secrets currently, when my moobs develop, ima join that dance team thats there every Friday at 5

  • So basically women should have to keep their shirt on because money is more important than equality.

    Don't get me wrong, I'm not a fan of free the nipple. I personally will always keep them covered. But this does very little to explain why free the nipple isn't a good idea. This is actually extremely sexist.

    The economy will be fine, dude. Whether or not you can see boobs on the street doesn't matter. Men will always pay for sex. And seeing boobs on the street isn't the same as in a titty bar where the woman is most likely in shape and dancing and stripping and serving you drinks lol or a woman posing in lingerie.

    Horrible Take. Use research next time. Or, you know, common sense.

    • On the street? Not even men walk bare chested in the street.

    • you are spunky Elarra

    • ^^ mmhmm ... because at the end of the day, it's not rlly *sex* that sells; it's ATTENTION that sells. (And attention from someone sexy commands the highest premium.)

  • Its retarded and its indecent exposure which is against the law. As far as places like strip clubs and sother things related, shouldn't exist due to the fact that they do not contribute or do anything good for society. All of it is uncivilized and we can't be mixing uncivilized society with civilized society.

  • As long as the pixelated nipples disease is gone. We need to fight this horrible disease that infects women.

    That or emergency procedure to replace the female nipples with male nipples get a funding boost.

  • I didn't know some places it was illegal.

    Been legal here for decades. Nobody does it.

    Our strip clubs have apparently been doing a bit worse because of pornography.

    But seeing the odd nipple doesn't really compete with nude lap dancing which is the main economic model behind strip clubs here.

  • It doesn't mean it's going to be practiced much i think it's more of a principle thing even guys rarely walk around with there shirts off in public other than at the beach sometimes.

    • Exactly.

  • No titty bars, you mean those women will have to work for a living in a shit job.
    Honestly when it comes the freeing the nipple I say we men should stay out of it and let women male up their own minds, we men are always in the firing line.

    • being a stripper is already a shit job. if you ask me its not even a real job.

    • @ImACowgirl can pay well. Some of the girls I went to college with paid their way through college stripping and hooking.

  • Emancipation destroyed the slave trade, but it was necessary because slavery was stupid and amoral.

    • I agree.

  • Free the nipple is just a dumbass bullshit that bunch of perverts made up and fooled the dumbass feminists to take up , so that they get to see titties...
    Thats was the only way for them and they are succeeding...
    This wasn't supposed to happen really..

  • People who make money are really good at making money.
    There is nothing to worry about.
    FREE THE NIPPLE!!!

  • I think women should have the same body rights as men... my girlfriend is always trying to get me to go shirtless inpibicpublic and aeoundaround the hbut iI never do. i feel the only place anyone should he shirtless is in bed, at home and the bleach.

    • I agree with that.

  • In the USA there are still local laws against females appearing topless in public. Women get arrested, but are immediately set free because the prosecutor knows damn well the local laws won't stand up in the appellate courts.

  • "Sexual advertisements don't have any effect whatsoever on nudists, both men and women."

    Gonna need sauce. Lots of sauce.

  • I would hate for other guys to see my flipping girlfriend's nipple. Luckily she's not into that type of exposure, so I don't really mind if other women decide to as long as the women I love isn't showing her body to others. I wouldn't do it either unless she allowed me to walk around shirtless

  • I don't see advertisements of how sex sells.

  • I think we will just be fine

  • Who gives a fuck let them show their tits it will be easier to tell the thots from the girls with modesty

  • The question is would you still be ok if your mom, sister, daughter, or girlfriend did it?
    Not to mention your grandmother, aunts, and female cousins, and nieces, and grandaughter.
