The quick easy and smart responses:
1. People are too fat for toplessness to be legal for either gender.
2. Being legal would take all the fun out of public sex.
That is all.
Yeah...I'll go with that. Seriously. Its usually the old, fat weirdos who don't wear clothes.
I liked the post except for the word topless, which is why I only quoted the second item. I have stayed at a clothing optional resort (Hedonism II in Negril) and I felt so foolish. I spent the whole time walking around covering my genitals with my hands. Like those pictures of people of Auschwitz just before the cyanide showers. And I always found it hard to take naturists/nudists seriously. I found myself constantly giggling at myself and others. But when I tried to wear a swimsuit around, I felt so awkward and out-of-place, like I thought I was better than everyone else, or I was trying to hide something. Never would do that again. I'll stick with the normal hotels and beaches.
But topless is another matter. I don't care much to have to look at some skank's bush while I'm trying to eat fish, or at someone's schlong when I'm trying to choke down a bratwurst, but nipples, whether men's or women's don't bother me while I'm trying to eat. And I feel comfortable being topless, with just swim trunks, when I'm at a pool or beach. And I can take others seriously if they're wearing trunks, but not tops. I will say that I still think the same rules ought to apply to men and women. If a man can walk down fifth avenue topless without being cited for indecent exposure, then a woman should have the same right. Anyway that part of the question was about nudity, not toplessness. Those are two different things. Topless is okay. Nudity is creepy.
Under no circumstances should we legalize public sex. That's just nasty. Get a room. Most of those public benches are wretched enough as it is, coated with bat guano and ABC gum and snot, but having to wipe off someone's love juices would be a bit too much for me. Not the world I want to live in.
