    Why is it not legal everywhere that it is for men? This is ass backwards lol. I just always assumed it was more of a women saying “not gonna do that cause pervs” type thing and how overly sexualized boobs are

      It’s a straw man / non issue.

      In Germany are public places marked as FKK (Freikörper Kultur = Full Nudity in Public), which are literally normal areas without any special consideration in terms of visibility. Best case: There is a sign notifying the squeamish that there could be Nudity… normal Case: No one gives a fuck.

      Heck, the best public baths are the sauna/thermal baths with are mandatory nude, age restriction 16+…

      It has no sexual meaning … you go there, everyone is naked after 10 seconds of slight awkwardness, you forget about it and enjoy the freedom of “no cold and wet swimwear” on the body.

      It’s great!

      I doubt Americans are different in that perspective.

      Edit: Perverts won’t have fun there. The people are average and mostly old and the behavior is casual. It’s like seeing your mom or dad naked. The few People who could get off on this have issues.

          exactly, we’re so regressive here that some parents just never even talk to their children about sex or their bodies because they are too ashamed to bring up the topic. nudity in public would not go over well

            Right. This dude doesn’t realize that if women did this in America dudes would be just non stop staring or straight up grabbing a handful walking by and shit. It’s disgusting but it’s the truth or America.

            Not every dude would do this obviously but there are a selection of scumbags who most certainly would.

          But I thought they love “freedom” over everything?

          You didn’t experience freedom when you never took a thermal bath and grilled your balls in the sun… :)

          The Article made it sound like hyped up “look at this thing and how unbelievable it is” while it is completely normal.

          But I think I am ignorant regarding the issue in the US an I think I became a sex offender at least twice while visiting the US. ._.

            Okay well I’m interpreting this as a joke lmao.

            But if it’s not then dude… You’re a sex offender.

            If there’s one thing America gets right it’s sex offender laws.

              you can become a sex offender for peeing somewhere you shouldn’t. i wouldn’t hype up our sex offender laws that much.

              Well I always just change on the spot since I was little, maybe with a loose towel, but it literally just a fig leaf… when it drops, it drops.

              But since I’m already a sex offender,… time to grab some pussy? (/s)

                I wasn’t saying you were a sex offender lol I meant if you did get charged legally it would be for good reason (99% of the time).

                Wrongful charges do occur, of course, when a “victim” claims rape falsely and there isn’t enough evidence to prove it didn’t happen (which is the opposite of how it is supposed to be - innocent until proven guilty).

                  I have no oder how to know everything. There are so many laws for stuff I didn’t even consider regulated, it’s hard to know what’s illegal and when.

                  Open container law, or that you can’t exit the car and walk on the side of a highway… (the two things we actually got in trouble with, but the cops were chill to us 4 Germans, amused even when we told them we had no more fuel and didn’t know what else to do / when a friend took his beer to the car to finish on the way home)

                  Next time we will do better

      Well you’re kinda right. I’ve lived in BC and the Yukon where it’s fully legal for women to go topless and I know quite a few who have, for shorter events like naked bike ride etc. But most of them intelligently choose not to at public beaches and whatnot because of the ick factor.

      I know one lady who did choose to go topless on a hot summer day in a fairly major downtown center and was accosted by cops whom she had to argue with (gladly, and loudly) for over an hour to explain to them that she was breaking no laws. They were trying to pressure her to re-robe because they were getting complaints, but again it’s true that she was breaking no laws at all. They couldn’t in the end do anything about it, and rightly so.

      Honestly, boobs are not that exciting.

      Have you ever been to a topless beach? The novelty wears out after about 10 seconds and then it becomes a boring norm.

        I think boobs are super exciting. I love boobs.

        If they’re connected to the body of the girl I’m being intimate with that is.

        Walked into Starbucks today to grab a food order and saw an attractive woman breastfeeding her child today, though, and not one sexual thought entered my mind.

        Thats the part most men struggle with.

        And some women, too, though not for the same reasons. “Oh that’s not something thAt should be done in public!” Okay so I guess for the same reasons, just different thought processes to arrive there.
