So this means it's generally OK to climb Nelson's Column and show your wanger to the world?

I doubt anyone would see it at that distance

Nothing wrong with public nudity IMHO, as long as he's not waving it around or being "obscene". Maybe if were we less prudish about nakedness and more open about sex we wouldn't have such a problem with teenage pregnancy.

My daughters are 10 and 7 and I walk around the house naked; nobody bats an eye lid. The naked body is a very natural thing.

As long as they don't mind people pointing and laughing (the naked body may be a natural thing, but it's rather seldom a thing of beauty ) I don't see any problem in it. We're about a century past the Victorian age now and methinks there's more urgent things to give a stuff about anyway.

Nowt wrong with the human body. Nowt wrong with showing it. Everyone is (more or less) the same naked.

Skin up people! (Not meant in the cannabis sense)


Slightly off topic. Is it just me that thinks that it takes the piss for that artist Antony Gormley to take credit for an art "exhibition" which is blatantly other peoples "work".

What sub forum should I start a "What is Art?" discussion?

[TEKNOPUG]

Neither is sex in public, unless someone makes a complaint.

Public Nudity is sometimes a big crime. A while ago, I decided to surf Penhale Corner, which is a nice righthander peeling off the rocks. It also happens to be a place where "those without hangups" parade around enforcing their lack of hangups on anyone. My Sheila was harassed by freaks with shaved cocks (probably half of that lot from The Pie and Piston". Afterwards, I decided to investigate the remains of Penhale Lead mine and had to walk past some beached seals. Of course, they can't lie normally, they have to spread their smashed crabs so you can see what they had for breakfast.

It's high time that naturists went the same way as lesbians a l'internet.

lots of things are natural....dont need to subject others to it. having sex is natural, do they sit in on that?

i'd be surprised if your 10 yr old will put up with your bits flapping about for much longer...it's not very "cool"

[WestYorkie]

So if it's legal why was that naturist hiker locked up?

"Breach of the peace," its likely that the police turned up to have a chat to the naked man wandering around the highlands and he didn't react well.

[JagLover]

Well if the Prime Minister is doing it...

well you can't blame him can you,the police *kept* turning up and arresting him. That's harassment surely? (or stalking if it was the same copper )

Well they will when they start bringing their friends home!

[fluffnik]

If burkas are legal I don't see why nudity shouldn't be...

I think it's disgraceful (and a considerable waste of publicly funded resources) that the Naked Rambler is persecuted by the law.

But the 7 year old doesn't mind when he's crouched down to put a DVD into the player - it gives her somewhere to park her bike.

You do realise that you posted this in the Pie and Piston?

[triggersbroom]

I believe that there is a cut-off time for this; Say when the kids reach 5 or 6, absolute tops.

If you were a female, then okayish... but I see you are a chap! Sorry fella, but IMHO, if you are deliberately walking around the house naked with a 7 and 10 year old around, that is a little odd.

Each to their own I guess.
