Should women be allowed to go topless in public pools?

Free the nipple.

Oh, ok lol

If women are not allowed, then why do we allow men to do it?

Also, many people complain that Islam is horrible for forcing women to cover up and dress certain ways, yet here we are doing the same thing. Thankfully, we've progressed from the days of full swimming dresses of 100 years ago.

It is unequal. I'm just not sure if it's wrong.
After all, men and women ARE different and breasts ARE considered a sexual part of a woman's body.
So is that appropriate to expose people to without their consent?

if they want to, then they should...

Congratulations. You've also failed to make any kind of counter argument.
But as long as your happy with it...

@MetalGreymon stating that breasts serve a biological and not a sexual function, was not a point..?
you are a smart one..
MetalGreymon · 36-40, M
@SW-User

It was a point, certainly.
...It was just a poor one which failed to be any kind of meaningful counter argument.
It's also wrong.
But i'll be generous. Perhaps what you meant to say just now was that breasts do not serve a primarily sexual function, because they certainly are a part of the body heavily involved in sexual activity if not reproduction.

And even assuming that's what you meant, saying that it's a body part serving a biological function is a transparently facile argument.
I can call upon that same "argument" to say that it should be fine to display your gaping asshole in public.
After all, it's just a non-sexual piece of anatomy which serves a biological function.

Now since you've chosen to make things personal and in light of your apparently limited grasp of debate 101, i think it's fair to point out the following:

I'm not sure if i am a smart one, but i appear to be rather smarter than you😏

lol it's been a pleasure
SW-User
I think we should be allowed its k for guys but y do we get a bum deal jus cos we hv boobs NOT FAIR
SW-User
I wouldn't mind them bien seen and I dnt mind seng a mans thing either jus think its wat we are adam eve and not bothred by difrent bits bad with explaining but try
SW-User
because its natural and why hide everythin all time i read in school tht it was the evil tht made ppl put clothes on as they became ashamed something like tht

@SW-User

Well that's wonderful for you and nuditst are of the same mindset. You can show your cock to a kid and vice versa. But that's not where our society's values lay right now
StevenIzzi · M
It is funny how the guys say yes.

I was at the #freethenipple walk last year where the women went topless and the guys marked with black electrical tape their breasts.

If you look at it in a sexual mindset then no...If you view it in a freedom and equality mindset then yes.
MetalGreymon · 36-40, M
@StevenIzzi

Well sure. You can raise a child in any cultural norm you care to. Including pedophilia sexual contact. You can teach a child that it's no big deal but does that make it ok?
StevenIzzi · M
@MetalGreymon I get it...I go to a family friendly nudist resort and tbh, I would never take my kids there. I would not want to think about what others may be thinking seeing my kids and vice versa.
MetalGreymon · 36-40, M
@StevenIzzi

It is a tricky situation. We can say that a body is just a body and not inherently sexual all we want....but practically speaking that is not usually true.
AmyDcan · 31-35, F
its actually legal here where i am but no one does it the only time i see other woman topless in public is on the beach or the naked bike ride
AmyDcan · 31-35, F
@MetalGreymon yup exactly and that is what she was saying its legal she can do it all she wants the cops couldn't do anything because it is legal but they just went on and on and on pretty much treated her like she was dead but complained when she was topless
AmyDcan · 31-35, F
@MetalGreymon its not like she was out at like a school yard after hours topless or out at a public park it was mostly in her yard and house but people still complained
MetalGreymon · 36-40, M
@AmyDcan

Yeah i don't think there's any grey area in that scenario. If a women wants to be topless on her own property and you don't like it...don't look.
SW-User
Fyi,in Sweden they are.
suzie1960 · 61-69, F
Yes, of course we should. Just the same as men are permitted to.
SW-User
Other women can do it, but I wouldn't.
MetalGreymon · 36-40, M
@SW-User

That seems to be the consensus mong most women.
"I think we should have the right, but I certainly wouldn't do it."
The whole idea of women's breasts being covered is archaic, but I kind of like the tradition, because it just makes them that much more exciting. Maybe that was the original reason for keeping them covered. I mean; what if you just threw stuff under the Christmas tree without wrapping it?
MetalGreymon · 36-40, M
@puck61

Mystery is nice.
yeronlyman · 51-55, M
The modern world is obsessed with breasts... At times it's pathological...

If we weren't so obsessed it's wouldn't be such a big deal...
yeronlyman · 51-55, M
@MetalGreymon sorry man I didn't mean to confuse you

I meant my answer was " stop obsessing and let women do as they wish..."

I didn't mean that personally directed at you ... peace
MetalGreymon · 36-40, M
@yeronlyman

Well i don't think there's much chance of men not obsessing over boobs any time soon lol
yeronlyman · 51-55, M
@MetalGreymon well it's a lot to do with conditioning... time and change
SW-User
Ummm okay well let's say yea

@MetalGreymon Should children be exposed to breasts? Of course they should. How else can they feed? Plus as they get older, they will see breasts as not such a big deal.
MetalGreymon · 36-40, M
@zork0000

Well babies need them to feed. But there is a certain point at which breast feeding is downright creepy so clearly there is a cutoff point at which it is generally acceptable for a child to be face to face with tatas. Not to mention there's a bit of a difference between the mother/child relationship and a child/stranger relationship.
Whatsnormal · 36-40
Yes absolutely
MetalGreymon · 36-40, M
@Whatsnormal

That would be equal rights. But we can't pretend that breasts aren't a sexual part of a woman's body.
So is it appropriate for children to be exposed to that?
Is it ok for people to be exposed to something sexual against their will?
Whatsnormal · 36-40
@MetalGreymon I'm a nudist I see it definitely then you... I see people nude all the time... why ask a question and then want to argue about it???
MetalGreymon · 36-40, M
@Whatsnormal

I thought we were having a debate, not an argument...
DragonFruit · 61-69, M
Yes, they should….and where I live they are allowed to do so.
MetalGreymon · 36-40, M
@DragonFruit

Me too.
How many do it?
SW-User
I didn't think about the kid thing prob a gd point fogot about the willy thing
lorne13 · 61-69, M
MetalGreymon · 36-40, M
@lorne13

Well yes. But on the other hand, breasts ARE considered a sexual part of a woman's body. Maybe they shouldn't be, but they are.

lorne13 · 61-69, M
@MetalGreymon I believe that people choose how they respond to things. people once responded to women's ankle in a sexual way, should ankles be covered up also?
MetalGreymon · 36-40, M
@lorne13

Well i guess that's true. So i suppose the question is how to change the way we view breasts. But is the right way to do that by just getting them out?

Only in some special area where minors are not allowed

Depends on the woman

No it doesn't.

@SW-User

why?
SW-User
MetalGreymon · 36-40, M
@SW-User

Why?
As they do in other countries ? Arguably, isnt that eventually how attitudes evolve ? At one point women were being arrested for wearing bathing costumes that revealed their limbs. 🤔
MetalGreymon · 36-40, M
@bijouxbroussard

On one had, that's true. On the other hand, girl bodies are very exciting.
I have to assume it stems from religious folk whose imaginary sky daddies tell them they ought not to get a woody
@MetalGreymon It's from religious folks teaching their sons that they get to be human beings and their sisters don't. 🙄
MetalGreymon · 36-40, M
@bijouxbroussard

Yeah. I wonder what the gender dynamic would be like if religion never existed.
I assume men would still be in charge because we're bigger, stronger and more aggressive but maybe there wouldn't be so much sexual repression
