When and why did public male nudity, even among friends, become taboo? In the 1800s, guys who are friends sometimes swim in ponds or river or lakes in the buff.
In the 1950s, guys in the YMCA swam unclothed.
Since when did male nudity, even among friends, become a social taboo? |
| Too gay for me. |
Is there any way for male prisoners to avoid public nudity? I am going to start serving a relatively short sentence soon and I am not very used to having to take my clothes off and be totally naked in front of others. Is public nudity in prison unavoidable or will I be able to avoid stripping in front of others? For example, can I just leave my underwear on during strip searches and when going into the shower? |
you are not your owner of your person any longer if you are supost to get naked you will get naked. the communal showers are there everyone gets time to take a shower and that is where the big buff dudes are going to pick thier next girlfriends.

Male public nudity stories? anyone want to share a story of them going nude? anyone every pull their pants down in front of everyone in a public bathroom? flashed people in a store? share your stories please. |
When I was 15 or 16 I went to the swimming pool and had to use the bathroom badly. (not to pee)
I went to the bathroom and there were several people washing their hands or using the urinals and only one stall available. Only problem was that stall had no door at all - probably got broken somehow and removed.
I couldn't really wait any longer so I entered it, pulled my pants down and sat on the toilet knowing that everyone could watch me.
So while I've never done that intentionally, it did happen to me.
Later in the army I've used the showers with my mates every evening, so we all saw each other nude but guess that doesn't really count.. :) |
Can the social taboos about women public frontal nudity and male naked waists be changed? in many communities in Africa and preislamic Arabia it was socially acceptable for women to show their breasts in public
in most ancient communities the norm for men was showing in public with naked torsos, can these fashions be brought back to modern societies imagine waking up in the morning and going to work in your underwear,it can be done if every one reacted really mature about it . |
| That would be great.. but ewwwwwwwwwwww.... 60% of this country consists of overweight slugs. |
How much public nudity is there in France? How much public nudity really is in France? Toplessness? Near the water? Skinny Dipping or Sun Bathing? Overall on hot summer days? Male / Female? Random occasional exposed person? As I am traveling there this summer, any feedback would be great !
Thanks! |
| sicko! why would you want to KNOW?! |
Can you do this in public without it being considered a "public nudity" offense? Can a male jog bare chested without any pants, but still wearing underwear? Is that considered a public nudity offense? |
| probably not as women can wear bikinis and guys can wear speedos in public |
Why is it ok for males to be shirtless in public but women shirtless is nudity? I mean men have boobs to yenno. Sometimes they are as big or even bigger than some women and need to wear a sports bra ASAP! I know this seems like an innapropriate question and if It is, i'll delete it :) |
Because women's breasts have become a symbol of sexuality.
Do you get aroused when you see a man's giant manboobs? No. Well at least I hope you don't. :)
Some people find it offensive. |
Public nudity dares please!!!!!!!!? i am a male. i am looking for dares i could do in public. maybe a store where i can do some nudity/ embarresment dares. Nothing that will get me thrown in jail. |
| you should go into a store naked holding your penis and buy some boxers. |
Assignment America: What is the public nudity law in your area? Quite often, it is suggested to answer the door nude when Jehovah's Witnesses come knocking. Here in Kansas City, if a neighbor complained seeing you nude at your front door, regardless of the reason, you get charged with a sex crime. If convicted, that means having to register as a sex offender, though this only applies to male offenders.
What are the laws in your area?
On this note, there was a case in our neighborhood where a couple answered the door naked, thinking that the suited man and woman at their door were witnesses. They were a plain clothes police officer and a social service grief counselor, there to notify them that their daughter had been killed in an early morning drunk driving accident. |
The typical Jehovah's Witness knocks at hundreds of doors each year. He has already experienced degrading behavior from householders, some of whom: stand there naked, mimic Satanists, proposition lewd acts, brandish weapons, sic dogs, scream profanities, accuse crimes, and call Witnesses anti-American (inside the USA) or pro-American (outside the USA).
Haven't these accusers ever heard of 'hedging your bets'? Simple risk vs. reward analysis should make anyone very reluctant to abuse these ministers.
(Acts 5:38,39) I say to you, Do not meddle with these men, but let them alone; (because, if this scheme or this work is from men, it will be overthrown; but if it is from God, you will not be able to overthrow them;) otherwise, you may perhaps be found fighters actually against God.”
Jehovah's Witnesses are going to knock on a door unless the householder specifically and unequivocally tells them their knocks are unwelcome, or if they fear for their own safety. Nothing else will really deter them, so anti-Witness nudists would be going to a lot of effort to accomplish nothing but pleasing Satan.
Really, if someone goes out of their way to disregard Christian preachers and preaching, what is he saying about himself?
(Luke 10:1-17) After these things the Lord designated seventy others and sent them forth by twos... “He that listens to you listens to me too. And he that disregards you disregards me too. Moreover, he that disregards me disregards also him that sent me forth.”

Public nudity?? Naked biking? I've heard of ppl walking or biking without clothes, for apparently no reason. First of all why do ppl hold such events??
And my most important question is, what if u get an erection while u participate in such an event??? Well, i think it is quite possible to have an erection in such an event 'cos there are naked ppl (both male and female) around u. How do ppl manage it?? Have u ever participated in such a thing ? what's u'r experience? |
I've don't know about walking, but yes, the bike riding does happen, they are organized events. Seattle has one every year. I've never participated in one.
One would only get an erection if one viewed someone as a sexual object. Nudist don't view naked people as sexual objects. They really aren't. That is one of the great dis-services that 'polite society' has done, by convincing most people that nudity is sex. If you felt socially obligated to have sex with every person you saw naked, you would find 99% of the population repulsive. If you deprogram yourself of the nudity/sex association, then seeing hundreds of naked people would have the same effect on you as going to the mall.
I've been to the Volleyball Superbowl at Whitethorn Lodge, PA. That is awesome. |
