Should public nudity become more socially accepted in your eyes?

Question

SweetFyter · Accepted Answer

LOL, I'd just be happy if it was more acceptable at my HOUSE! One rule for the boys, another rule for me. I don't like double-standards.

But, to answer the question - honestly? I love not wearing clothes at skinny dipping at my uncle's lake every summer is something I always look forward to. However, in public? I don't think I'd be that comfortable at all. To me, my body is MINE and I get to choose with whom I will share it. And for me, that's a small group - very small. Should it be allowed? It's hard to say. I don't mind seeing naked people - I'd love that. BUT, can most people be naked and NOT make it sexual? It sure doesn't seem that way to me. So, because of those who cannot distinguish between nudity and sex, I'd have to say no to "public" nudity.

Nudity isn't the problem, guys getting sexual gratification by showing their dicks or harassing woman/children is. On a nudist beach it's not a problem, if you don't want to see dicks don't go. Plus the men there aren't really about showing what they've got, it's more about being free and a all over tan.
The guy who wants to get his dick out on the high street is doing it because he's getting sexual gratification waving it at women.

Europe has LONG had a much more pragmatic attitude to public nudity.
Don't DO it or DON'T look! if it offends your sensibilities, but DON'T be a hypocrite!
As an aging 70 yr old Senior I no longer wear my 'speedo' swimsuit "man panties".

I observe a religious tradition which both espouses and encourages 'sky clad' worship.
There ARE valid scientific principles which underpin Sunday Go Tah Meetin in yer 'birthday suit'.
God deemed it 'good enough' to dress you... WHO THE HELL are YOU to debate GOD'S 'wisdom'?

PRIMARY function of clothing is protection from abrasion, thermal insulation, support sagging flesh, visual delineation of societal rank/prestige... and, POCKETS!!!

Not everywhere because people are already jerks in clothes and I think that would just sexualize the society even more. I doubt that most people would keep it to themselves if they had the chance to.
I think you could open some more reservoirs where people can have a nudity holiday or live in communities if they want to.
But it shouldn´t be everywhere because it wouldn´t solve mentally problems of people having to show off the spots they are already insecure about.
I get where you from but I don´t think it should be allowed everywhere but there could be more places.

ChrisMaster69 · Answer

The test for this is when the majority of guys stop staring at girls tits.

The majority who go to naturist beaches and camps understand it’s not sexual.

There is also a thing about consent and not enforcing things on people.

Some do not want exposure (no pun intended) to complete nudity.

Also it works on beaches and specific camps, it would never be acceptable in other public areas and rightly so. In a number of places guys cannot go topless and must wear a t shirt etc.

It should be socially acceptable that people go on holidays and are naked or topless for the entire time.

there should not be any judgement over the type of person they are simply for going to a naturist camp or beach.

Breebabe15 · Answer

Nudity shouldn't be such a bit thing if you are naked. We all have changerooms where people would see others nude but we make it sich a big thing if you seeing the other sex nude. I think we should worry too much if you do see guys or girls naked. If we go to a beach to wear something only to get it wet whats the point? 🩲👙 we bath and shower nude, why not do like the beach or pools nude too?🛀

genericname85 · Answer

maybe that would actually be a good idea, cause that will desexualize naked bodies and very naturally create a more broad social understanding of what "a normal body" is. i think this entire discussion we're having about fat models and traditional models and body standards is completely bullshit and extreme to both sides. so just show people what actual bodies look like IN REAL LIFE, not in tv or on social media.

i generally think people should take their eyes off their screens and look what's actually around them, cause not doing that allows certain powers to indoctrinate us with outrageous bullshit.

TheSpaceGnome · Answer

Only thing I care about regarding this, is that for seating or eating areas, wear pants.

I don't wanna sit where some stranger's crotch or ass has had direct contact, the rest is whatever, you wanna walk down the street naked? I won't stop ya, but you're not sitting on the bus or my couch that way.

People are like, "you can't, all the pervs will get boners!"

Oh well? I don't care, it's their body, and I'm certianly not getting one, not with all those naked ugly people walking around next to the hot ones.

Plus if that were as big as an issue as people say it is, every straight guy who steps foot on a crowded beach with women in super thin string bikinis everywhere, would all have hard ons the whole time, and pretty much no one pitches a tent in their swimtrunks at beaches (thankfully).

Aerissa_Jade · Answer

Sure, but if it does only people you don't want to see will be showing it off.

Nudity is no big deal, society (at least in the USA) often thinks nudity is porn. Taking a picture of a child playing in a bathtub, I've heard people call that child porn and I just laugh at their ignorance.

DownIndaDumpz · Answer

I can't expect it to ever be seen as "normal"
Like, if you're a girl walking around naked... You can't expect guys to not be staring and turned on by it... Even if they don't physically show that they are... In their head they will be turned on and staring at youSo it will probably never be seen as "normal" since it's out of the ordinary... Unless everyone started doing it (doubt that'll happen) But as far as it being illegal to be naked... I think that's stupid... Because it's natural for us to be naked... Before clothes was invented million years ago imagine how stupid it would be to punish someone for showing their junk.. that's why I think it's stupid to punish us for our natural state, it's a unnecessary restriction of human freedom

Kristenxoxo · Answer

Absolutely, I go to a clothing optional beach all the time and find it to be amazing, it’s a small beach with all different type of people enjoying the sun on there skin. If you don’t want to see nude people, then don’t go to nude beaches period.

Adam1978 · Answer

No that is a horrible idea, at least we got it cold here in sweden but you would only get creepy nude people in public spaces if you allowed that. So no lets keep public places free of nudity. It's enough with nude beaches for those who feels like stripping in public.

Brainsbeforebeauty · Answer

No it shouldn't!! Funny the people that will say nudity should be socially acceptable will also blame a woman being raped on how she dresses🙄
There's nude beaches for those that want to be naked, but thinking it should be acceptable anywhere in public I wouldn't be okay with.. So kids should be allowed to go to school naked? People should go to church naked? In restaurants naked?
There's a time and place for nudity, and none of those are places where it should be acceptable.

Anonymous · Answer

Lets be honest, it would be 80-90% sausage fest. Girls say they want freedom and equality, but when it comes to it, they don’t want eyes on their tits and ass like that. I don’t want to see a bunch of uncircumcised bushy baby dicks with fat bellies walking around everywhere. And I don’t think kids should see grown adults walking around naked. Keep it limited to certain places like specialized beaches.

andreasderjuengere · Answer

Only the least advanced cultures run around naked :D
Thanks, but no.
Further: what we will get to see most of the time will be something that we don't WANT to see.
Further: clothing is protective, decorative and hinders spreading body products.

FunkyMonkee · Answer

HELL, YEAH!! If it was good enough for Adam & Eve, it should be good enough for the rest of us!! ALL animals but us run around naked 24/7!! Why can't we? We're ALL born naked, why can't we spend our lives that way, if we want to?
Did you see that sand worm in the orange pin-stripe suit and spats?
Yeah, he had a date with that caterpillar over there in the pink taffeta evening gown.

modeve · Answer

I personally support it but should not be public unless we are mentally mature. In my view, it should be started within limited circle, like family and friends.

StephanieGirl75 · Answer

No never.
There's a reason we wear clothing in public. Because there's people you really don't want to see nude.

And I enjoy being nude but in the privacy of my own bedroom or back yard were nobody can see me.

Prg11 · Answer

I see this site now uses advertising - since I killed their psychological-warfare-on-white-bright-eyed-male Saudi-Indian income

Nudity is funny - the whole point in covering (genitals) is to arouse interest (in those).
Once they are visible, you look at the face, cerebral head size, the usual good stuff

LovingLoverReturned · Answer

Ew. No... sorry.
I don't like everybody...

Also... if people got accustomed to nudity, the bedroom would probably be more bring and less surprising or exciting.

That's why gifts are wrapped.. it causes anticipation ... facepalm

Cherry234 · Answer

I'm not a fan of it. I think it should be reserved for nude beaches.

luminiferous · Answer

Imagine going through all those phases of evolution to have a developed frontal lobe, and still want to act like an animal.  Short answer, no it's dehumanising.

Anonymous · Answer

What you're asking is... should we as a society lower our standards yet again?

Everyone complains constantly about how everything is going to hell, yet no one seem willing to make the connection between that and all the choices we make as a society that slowly erode our standards as human being (as opposed to animals). At what point will we all wake up and see what we are doing? And will it be too late?

No, I'm not a religious nutter. Am an atheist with a brain.

Subarugirl · Answer

Absolutely! I’m so sick of the human body being overly sexualized

I already deal with dickheads, I don't need to see them too.

Squaresquirrel · Answer

I hope you realize that would include all bodies, even the 90 year old grannies as you couldn't put an age limit on it.

OpenClose · Answer

Yup. Though mostly at places like nude beaches. If you're just walking around naked in Times Square you can't act like it wouldn't draw attention or criticism even if it were legal.

ticonderoga2 · Answer

FUCK NO. We aren't pissy European douche bags who love seeing their Mom and Dad stark naked whilst we visit the sauna. If tit's, asses, and pussy weren't covered up, then why would any of it be exciting?

annabananna · Answer

Like anywhere in public? Not, not with all the pedophiles and perverts out there.

Anonymous · Answer

No I don't want ro see sicks and boobs everywhere I go. Plus if everyone's walking around naked that makes being intimate with someone so much less intimate as being naked for them isn't so special anymore

nannnnssss · Answer

Nudity is not a problem sexual actions of showing dicks and harrassing women and children is a problem in my opinion public nudity should become common but people need to be educated well before it

Aakash_Hangargi · Answer

Even if that happens, there will be lot of ruccus in the begining.

Then the middle phase then normality

Then clothes will be the new thing and there will be pro clothes movement and the cycle continues

Heartache0405 · Answer

No. Yet apparently it is becoming more acceptable for women. As if what they have going on is any more attractive than what men have 😂

Sjoerd85 · Answer

Yes; it should be seen as just as normal as wearing clothing, especially at the beach and swimmingpools.

Telekinetic-Potato · Answer

I think it's a good idea, maybe there wouldn't be so many weirdos if we didn't make such a big deal out of our body parts

sissyalexa · Answer

Absolutely! I'm I'm big belive in natural living and it seems perfectly natural to be naked to me 😊

Dargil · Answer

No, it should not, although it is OK at certain isolated beaches.

globetrotter22 · Answer

So it’s okay to walk naked in front of kids? We have indecent exposure laws for a reason.

CuriousMufuxka · Answer

The problem is that it's mostly saggy titties and old guys.

Surely · Answer

Doesn’t really matter to me. But, there are some people out there that I would rather not see nude!

crmoore · Answer

No. If anything we should have less revealing clothing. It's not cool. to expose yourself to those who didn't consent to it.

Kiran_Yagami · Answer

No. Modesty isn't just for the attractive. I don't want to see fat, unattractive, slobs without clothes on.

marish01 · Answer

No. I don't want to feel disgust by seeing so many lower than average naked bodies. You want to get naked, then stay away from my eyes.

astep · Answer

Here in Europe female topless is allowed on every beach, and there are a large number of cloth optional or nudist beach as well. So it is quite well accepted

Nagatoro · Answer

I really don't wanna walk around and see naked people at Walmart and McDonald's lmao

If we were meant to be nude, we would have been born that way. Oops we were Damm I did not think of that LOL.

prosmind · Answer

Though I love nudity and stay always nude at home, but it's reality that public nudity will never be accepted by the society.

OddBeMe · Answer

Possibly along with sex ed. We put the fear of god in kids about sex and having nude girls walk around without the teaching could be bad.

Anonymous · Answer

No because after that it'll be something else and then something else you got to stop at now.

Nope it should be exclusively for people who accept it not for everyone
