    i once was opening apartments using a master key, while a building touching the apt bldg was on fire. (i’m a firefighter not a creep) opened a door to an apt where my sight line was across a living room, to a bedroom open with a lady riding a guy. they were like “yeah we heard the alarm but ignored it.” sigh.

    I was managing a bar/club in a student city, and somebody decided to puke in the urinal and clogged it to all hell. So I called a plumber to fix it cause I wasn’t able to, and got to talking with the guy. Asked him if he had any weird encounters, and he told me that once he was called to a house of a very infamous frat to fix some blockage. He was let inside, and there was this couple just straight up fucking with their doors open. He asked them to stop; they didn’t. So after asking a second time with the same outcome, he just left and sent them a bill for the start-up cost.

    I’m hardly a prude, but I would be reluctant to be naked around “Fire Guy”

    The fire guy has eyelids, ain’t he?

    But for real this is sexual assault so don’t be naked in front of people anymore.

        People seem to be culturally conditioned to see any form of nudity as inherently sexual or perverted. It’s not inherently sexual.

        I’m aware of at least a few European countries and countries like Japan that have no problem or less problems with nudity compared to the US.

        Bathing culture/having public baths or communal showers opens the door to people relaxing about the human body.

        Communal/non-sexual nudity really isn’t a big deal.

            Fair, then don’t go to spaces where people are naked or look at people who are legally naked. You do you.

                It’s a good thing then that countries that have this sort of nudity legal don’t start becoming nudist colonies just because you can legally be topless or nude.

          You think Japan has less of an issue with nudity then the US? Their porn can’t even show uncensored genitals.

            That’s sexual though. When I said, “have no problem or less problems with nudity”, I meant non-sexual nudity.

            They almost certainly have less problems with non-sexual nudity. There is discrimination against tattoos, for example. I’m unsure how being transgender would work, but I’d imagine that is another area of discrimination and exclusion.

                https://www.cnn.com/travel/article/nude-beaches-world-map

                European countries do generally allow nude sunbathing and have bathing culture. I wasn’t just talking about Japan.

                I can’t attest to the accuracy of the map, but it has to be at least somewhat accurate. I don’t think it’s correct on Japan, as you say. Take it with a grain of salt.

                Japan is prudish and repressed in many ways, sure, but they do see the practicality of being nude when you have a reason to be nude (e.g. bathing). Hot springs are a social activity and generally individuals are very comfortable (at least) with being nude with the same sex.

                Oh, and there is weight-based shaming and other forms of discrimination/racism there. There are issues and it’s fair to point them out.

    The fire guy is irrelevant for the oppression, it’s his phone and smart home speakers plugged into palantir, aandrijving his privacy
