Is nudism the ultimate expression of freedom of speech?

Why does it matter about what you see. Wouldn’t it matter more how comfortable you are? Or, is the idea of the government prosecuting people for not wearing what the government wants them too preferable?

Naturally, but should they hold this opinion? Is it well informed? Obviously I am not arguing that people shouldn’t be allowed to hold such ideas, I am merely asking if such ideas are based on an accurate rendition of reality

This is especially important as companies first censor because nudity=porn in the public consciousness (even though it clearly doesn’t) before they censor political opinion. They do so under the justification that it is just part of what the people want (safety from offense).

Should your local government have the right to enforce a dress code?

Lol

Eh, I don’t care what others feel about me. I think it is dumb for people to be in a state of panic for simple nudity

I think giving the state the power to regulate clothing is a mistake. In Michigan it is hypothetically possible to be put on the sex offenders list for peeing on a tree on the road

Nudist families are a thing, and there exists many nudist resorts that are family friendly

children who grow up in nudist environments are less likely to be sexually assaulted and abused, and have an easier time reporting it if it happens.

I see

Well your attitude toward alcohol makes sense, I would add no sexual nudity there

Nonsexual*

It demystifies the body, mind you I am still single (for now) and while I desire to have children someday, I have known. So take what I say with a grain of salt

Ditto

That sucks

Just for simple nudity?

That is moronic

I see

Well I’m not going to pry for details, but either way, I still advocate for decriminalized nudism

I see

That is unfortunate

Fair enough

Society is dumb sometimes

As many families did and do

Yep

Normalizing nudity and naturism will go a long way to helping put a stop to that

So that is the debate I suppose

Should free speech rights include the right to dress as you want

In public

I assume you already have that right at home

There are no federal protections either

true, but I think that there should be a culture shift away from the government 'protecting' you from offense

I think the government is obligated to protect children from harm, but the government should be required to scientifically prove this harm

nudity isnt on that list

I mean when child rights class with parental rights

clash*

True

makes sense

lol

Either way, not much can be done

Yep

I remember the uk one

yep

yep

I am a christian and dont have a dog in that fight

Not what I mean

I mean, I have a simple solution to the lack, fill what was there before

I have no incentive to encourage people to find alternatives (in fact it would be against my goals)

By implication, I don't believe that such an anchor truly exists without God. It would be weirder if I disagreed with that idea

For my view, whatever you have as your 'anchor' is your communities' God.

I would argue that they have their own problems.

Either way, I agree that such an anchor is required, but I charge that such an anchor requires a transcendent thing to anchor to

Good luck @Timcast I hope things pan out for you. I was serious about the topics I raised
