Body shaming is not more egregious than modesty shaming

@SunshineGirl It was just a general conversation about things rather than a specific attack on a given theme. A range of topics can be discussed in such a scenario and I feel that people are entitled to dislike nudity in any context. It just becomes a question of how reasonable that is.

@SunshineGirl

I personally find it creepy especially if they are doing this with seriousness instead of a joke, considering how often I use changing rooms. In healthcare there is not always the ability to stay modest in the changing room. They have to be staring at people.

Also since when is modesty related to changing rooms or bathrooms???

Not even in Islam, one of the most hardcore religions about modesty, are these spaces policed.

@Miram That last sentence is an excellent point.

@basilfawlty89 not even magic undergarments could save you from the act of soaking

@cherokeepatti I see where you're coming from. I feel like there should be some regard for others especially with children

@HijabaDabbaDoo I went swimming there some years later and the college students were still doing that. I heard male janitors say that they were sent over to the pool to clean when the one that worked there called in sick. Before they entered the women’s area to empty the trash and check toilets etc. they would yell to warn that they were coming in to clean to warn women to cover up. And there was usually one walking around butt naked saying that she didn’t mind him being in there working while she was there. He would turn around quickly and say that he would come back when the area was vacant. Didn’t want to get falsely accused of something.

So now I can't go to my work changing room without thinking of some pick me nut whining on social media about how naked I was to appear modest.

Modesty in changing rooms is an insane expectation

@ostfuidctyvm

This is the only part I agree with


Piling against them was as unfair as their nonsense if not worse. There are more important things to address than who saw whose vajayjay in washing room.

@Miram My main point, perhaps with not the best example used, is that I believe it's perfectly ok to not be ok with bodies. As long as nobody is being oppressed, belittled or insulted in any way then it's a basic expression of freedom.
