Nudity In France

What does nudity mean to you? I'm very interested in your thoughts about that because I don't know how nudity could mean more than just being naked. Are you offended by nude art such as paintings that has been produced over countless centuries? Do you think nude models for art classes should be banned?

Just to be clear, when I'm talking about nudity I mean only that the body is in a unclothed nonsexual state such as taking a shower or changing clothes. IMO there is nothing shameful or wrong about that and if another person sees you there is nothing wrong with it. I don't look at it as being unmoral. I don't look at it as a sin because there's nothing sexual about it and IMO nonsexual nudity isn't sinful. I realize that others have a different belief and that's fine. I'm mainly addressing the folks that have this whole mindset that nudity equals sex. That couldn't be farther from the truth, at least in the way I view the world.

 

I absolutely agree and I gave you a like despite your use of the word cunt. I don't like that word. I find it so demeaning of women because people have used it so much as a put down of women.

 

I've never dared called a woman a cunt but I've heard people do it and I've heard it in "music" and it makes my skin crawl. I say "music" because I don't really consider that kind of garbage to be music. And no, I don't have the same thoughts about the word cock. I'm used to women getting pissed and calling men dickheads. I've even called men dickheads. One of my favorite sayings is "use your head and not your head." LOL!! I've never heard anyone call a guy a cock as a way of demeaning them.

I also feel the same way about bitch. I wouldn't dare call a woman a bitch unless I was extremely angry with them and it would have to be someone I really hate. Therefore it is very rare for me to ever call a woman a bitch. But I do use the phrase bitch to describe people who are complaining endlessly about nothing. I'll say something like "why are you in such a bitchy mood?" or "all you ever do is bitch and moan."

 

Ok. Fair enough stance about the subject. Appreciate the mature and open debate on the subject unlike a couple of the other responses that were just off the wall nonsense.

 

I used France because I was watching National Lampoon's European Vacation and there's a scene in the movie of topless dancers and the topic is about how it's the French culture. So then I did a search and realized that it appears nudity is France is far less strict than what I'm used to here in USA.

As for you getting triggered by seeing a topless woman, why is that? What makes you so triggered about seeing a topless woman? Why is it so bad?

 

You can admire a woman's beauty and not lust to have sex with her. Those are two completely different thoughts and emotions.

 

Sex is the key word in the second part of your statement. Nudity does not equal sex. I'll believe that until I die. I'll never figure this whole just because someone is naked that means it's sexual in nature or they're just having a big orgy.

 

I don't know. I don't understand why a woman is shamed because she wants to go around topless in the same places where it's ok for a man to go around topless.

@Ginny Weasley doesn't want to go naked and that's fine. It's her right to not go topless or completely naked. That's a personal decision that she's made and since it's her body it's her decision and no one else's.

But I don't think we should shame women that want equal topless rights with men and call it "indecent." What exactly makes it "indecent?" The people that can't control themselves at the sight and thought of a naked breast? The same folks that throw a fit if a woman is breastfeeding her baby in the park? Every time I hear or read about a woman being shamed for breastfeeding in public I get triggered that she's being shamed for doing something that is not sexual and completely natural. As for the folks that try to compare that to things like actually having sex in public, that's completely different and rightly banned in most countries and cultures. Sex is a private act. No one needs to see that.

It's why porn is so corruptible. Porn has taken something holy and made it an abomination. Porn has caused people to become perverted. One of the most viewed porn categories is incest porn. Yuck! Seeing a woman topless and breastfeeding wouldn't have the same affect in my book and if it does and a person wants to start sucking milk from a woman's breasts, well, then that person has some serious issues.
