A childhood friend was convicted of Sexual Assult of a minor becuase the girls mom accused him

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

I see

That is unfortunate

family nudity policy that involved physical contact with girls, im sorry wut

Yeah. I take the me too hash tag stuff very poorly becasue of personal bias.

we talking like forced shared showers or something

Fair enough

Of course not, Grenade. We're talking about girls crawling into bed with thier mom and dad.

Society is dumb sometimes

what, everyone sleep naked, and they let their kids sleep in bed if they wanted to?

As many families did and do

indeed

i could see that raising little red flags at the time (i mean, kids will barge their way into showers) but a vindictive ex-wife could easily turn that against you

Yep

what a world we live in

"trying to teach your kids nudity is not sexual? TO BAD! YOU EX-WIFE WANTS YOU IN JAIL SO FUCK YOU!"

perhaps thats not something to be trying to ingrain in your kids

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

"kid not know what personal space is yet and alone time? WELL FUCK YOU! STATE FOSTER SYSTEM NEEDS MORE MONEY AND WE NEED KIDS FOR THAT"

@Blackhawk342 what do you mean "ingrain into your kids"

you ingrain into them that nudity is sexual

if you don't do that, then it won't happen as much.

can be a bit of an issue given surrounding society but you can at least hope for a bit of 50/50

So that is the debate I suppose

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

i mean, in your own house especially?

In public

I assume you already have that right at home

i mean, i don't think there is any federal laws against public nudity but i could be wrong

There are no federal protections either

well and i don't know if the states have much in terms of public decency, or if its usually down the local municipalities

Right, it's decided by the states.

because i do know that a lot of towns and such will have different rules on it

and obviously nudist places exist

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

indeed

the government shouldn't be protecting your "sensibilities"

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

harm is, to an extent, subjective
