Someone never heard about the granny category on PH...

There is a fetish for everything....

 

[IntentionalPun]

People's hangups are stupid... people are sexy in and out of clothes.. people are ugly in and out of clothes. If you can't handle being around some titties w/o acting a fool it's on you. I'm more turned on by girls in yoga pants than I am most naked tits... I manage to handle myself fine, and don't think either thing should be legislated.

Forbes] Women Allowed Topless In Pools In Germany For Gender Equality​

 

[lachesis]

I guess some don't understand that wearing swim suit is like wearing make up....
It's the "idea" you sell, not the product itself (which is often... disappointing and pretty much the same)

Equality, for sure - but they are just lowering their own value by selling it cheap, imo.

Then again, I guess this would be the necessary item...

 

[daffyduck]

I think the ideal is that eventually it becomes so normalized that people dont gaze because they are used to it, the thrill has worn off so to speak

That may be the ideal, meanwhile the reality:

 

[Tieno]

germans know what's up!

If I ever stop having a thrill at seeing a decent set of tits I want you to take me out back and end me like Old Yeller

 

[haxan7]

If tits are on display everywhere at all times, they won't be nearly as much of a turn-on.

If women are smart, they would cover up more, not less. Something to think about.

*enters thread about German titties*

*sees arguments about Muslims*

Never change, GAF.

 

[haxan7]

Its strange. The immediate thought as a guy is yay boobies, but thinking about it further. I find that breasts have become more normalized in my life, and therefore less sexual to me, if that makes sense. My girlfriend routinely walks around our apartment topless, public breast feeding is less stigmatized than it once was, and Toplessness in general is becoming more widely accepted around the globe, and video games and films are regularly starting to have topless scenes that are not necessarily sexy. I totally think there is a world where toplessness at the beach or pool is pretty normal in the next decade, and we wouldn't treat it any differently from a man being topless.

Exactly. And this represents women giving away their sexual power in the name of some false utopia where human nature doesn't exist.

 

[BigBooper]

Boners are not aerodynamic. This is to level the playing field, right? Slowing men down.

 

[TheDreadBaron]

I don’t want to see anyone’s naked torso in public, call me a prude or whatever but cover them nips please. Let’s not normalize bare breasts, lets denormalize any bare chests. Hey Emil, new rule, everyone wears tshirts in the pool! No one wants to see that hairy chest and saggy man tits, cover your shame!

 

[OZ9000]

They should only allow you to be topless if your BMI is less than 25 and aged <50

 

[John Bilbo]

germans know what's up!

First the women are without tops.

[hemo memo]

What irks me way more are burkinis becoming an increasingly common occurrence. Don't come to the pool if your retarded religion is the equivalent of 1950s prudism.
F*ck that shit!

How about not being a retard by being offended of people doing what they like that doesn't bother you in any way? "Oh My God it hurts my eyes, look at that women not showing skin" really?

How about not being a fanatical religious nutjob and accept that you are in an emancipated culture?
Western women fought long and hard to do away with prudish laws keeping them down!

Nice strawman, btw.

ever been to a nude beach? not a pretty sight

 

[Cyberpunkd]

The ‘gender row’ happened when a transgender swimmer was asked to cover up at a local pool. “The swimmer protested, however, saying they identified as male. Despite the assertion, the pool authority expelled the individual, who was subsequently banned from the premises,” DW reports.

According to the German news site Spiegel, this is what happened: “A swimming pool in Göttingen threw a person out because they bathed topless. But the person does not see herself as a woman. And now there is a new rule.”

This is hilarious. Would be even more mad lass (see what I did there?) move if it turned out the "female" was actually cis, she just liked to swim topless so decided for "creative use of game mechanics".

I would have to see photos of alleged "man" before I decide if the authorities were justified or just jealous

what?

Full of old wrinkle ass people

 

[Yoboman]

Wait is it actually a law women can't be topless at a pool or beach? That is stupid

I thought it was more just a morality standard

 

[Maiden Voyage]

I'm always thinking about boobs.

The principal questions: Why can men show their naked torso but not women? Why must female bodies always be sexualized?

So did they do any research to answer these questions? What reasons did they find?

Is this implying mens torsos aren’t sexualised?

 

[DragoonKain]

Good step for Gemany, but they're still way behind the US. In the US, women are allowed to show their penises in spas because of gender equality. One day Germany will catch the US in terms of progressivism.

Nudist beaches have been a thing in Germany for forever.

 

[GeorgioCostanzaX]

These are not going to be the boobs you are looking for.

Precisely why even gay men and women are not excited in the locker room: the only people who have no shame walking around naked are older men with saggy balls and older women with saggy tits.

 

[ResilientBanana]

The boobs I'll want, they won't have. The boobs they have, I won't want.

 

[Durien]

These are not going to be the boobs you are looking for.

I told my wife, the women who promote being topless in public (outside of "gentleman's clubs) are the ones you don't want to see topless (I assume it would be similar for nude beaches with dudes. Not all dudes are built like *insert some beefcake chicks like*)

 

[Craig of War]

Hell yeah

Apparently there were two reasons.

I don't live in Germany so I am currently safe from this moral debauchery.

Nice strawman, btw.

What is up with this? I thought the idea was to give people options rather than funneling them down a specific path? People can do what people want, is it hard to accept that some people are religious and some do not want to be tied down by an ideology? Maybe Western women fought for what they wanted. It doesnt mean everyone else agrees or has to agree with it.

This 100%.

 

[Toots]

I'd say it's the fully clothed individuals who are having trouble being next to half-naked individuals, due to their idiotic outdated religious views.
These idiots are basically regressing women's liberties by about half a century.

If anyone on any side tries to impose his views on the other side he’s wrong imo. I find your view on Islam reductive. Most time the women themselves choose how they dress, for reasons their own. A woman’s liberty is to do what she wants. Even if it’s dressing in ways you don’t like.
Anyway I’m of course sided with the topless German big titty gals but i can understand if a woman want to go the opposite direction.

Muslim women dress the way they do because the religion they adhere to demands it. They’re not choosing of their own free will

Islam is steeped in misogyny.

Much like Christianity.

And every other religion.

I tell you what the problem is. We (as in "The West") can tolerate Islam and it's idiological demands as much as we want or as much as our moral codes tell us but believe me, Islam wouldn't do that with our values. Just have a look into islamic countries.

Anyway, before it gets too political, I think that USA and Europe have very different issues with Islam.
