I have mixed feelings about this.

If one were really disposed to be against it, I suppose there are effective countermeasures that could be deployed.

Something like “hey, one of them is lower than the other!”

I was on a beach last summer that had one section for nudes and one for dogs. Right next to each other.

“I was on a beach last summer that had one section for nudes and one for dogs. Right next to each other.”

Could you tell them apart?
One of the problems, speaking from observational not participatory experience, is that the people you’d not mind seeing nude on the beach are not the one who are nude on the beach.

I have not desire to see 225lb middle aged lesbian women nude.

Pot bellied old men (with the darkest tan a human can have) and fat middle-age women (as pale as a person can be).

I would resemble the first but I always swim in a shirt to avoid the spectacle

A hundred years ago, it was all about the leg.
A hundred years before that, ladies gowns were designed to show the nipple. But never anything below that.

So much of this really is a social construct.

When I was very young, women in my farm family nursed their babies out in the open and nobody cared. They did it in church just like all of the other women.

Women all over the planet run around topless for their entire lives. You should’ve seen the ‘normal’ ads that they had in Europe back in the 90’s.

We decide if something is ‘too low’ or ‘too high’ or “too much”. Right now, the group is working on a new standard.

Personally, with all the broo-ha-ha over breastfeeding, I’m leaning towards the liberals on this one issue. Values? I value the mother/child bond over everything.

It’s OK for men to show their “titties” but not for women. Why? Tits are not a sexual organ and there is nothing wrong with going topless like men do.

On the other hand, showing sexual organs should be prevented in public.

On this issue, there are two major points to keep in mind, and I would like to see them fully developed.

Good morning my young friend. I am so happy to share this fine day with you and comment about such a mysterious wondrous event in our daily lives.

I will be working a full day and meeting, passing and experiencing many distractions and several of the type under discussion.

When I see a puppy or a new small little baby I cannot take my eyes away and am exhilarated by the sight and exhale with a positive sigh. I’m not sure that I could withstand the rush of pleasure of a new mother, breast feeding her new little miracle with a puppy sitting by her side. /s

“Both points of view were aired with great passion ... “

I see what the author did there.

...courts have ruled that citizens must tolerate offensive, insulting even outrageous speech and behavior “to allow breathing space for the free speech protections of the First Amendment.”

If only. Try speaking out about LGBQT. You will likely be fired from your job.
