Is topless female sunbathing inappropriate?

[Skwim]

The question is prompted by an article describing why a woman was charged with "sensuously rubbing in sun cream," which “troubled [a woman's] sons aged 14 and 12.”

So, aside from the protecting-oneself-with-sun-screen issue, Is topless female sunbathing inappropriate?

 

[Kilgore Trout]

Yes, I'm sure her sons were terribly "troubled."

 

[Neo-Logic]

Very appropriate. So much so that I would favor any legislation mandating it.

 

[Smoke]

One expects this kind of idiocy in the U.S. I thought Europeans were supposed to be more sophisticated.

I can't imagine that "troubled" is quite the word for the boys in question. I imagine that given the opportunity, they'd have been have happy to help the young lady apply her sunscreen.

[FlyingTeaPot]

I imagine the boys were troubled by the unexpected bulge in their pants.

A woman should only be required to wear a top at the same time and places that men are required to do so.

 

[Storm]

All joking aside, I agree with tumbleweed.

 

[Skwim]

All joking aside, I agree with tumbleweed.

Yes, It's an excellent guideline.

 

[tumbleweed41]

All joking aside, I agree with tumbleweed.

All joking included....see ya at the pool...:beach:

Not only that, but if those boys had grown up seeing such sights all their lives, I'd bet they would not have been "troubled" by it at that point.

 

[Aquitaine]

Bewbs.

 

[tumbleweed41]

Not only that, but if those boys had grown up seeing such sights all their lives, I'd bet they would not have been "troubled" by it at that point.

Indeed.

 

[Demonic Kitten]

I see nothing wrong with it. ^_^

 

[Eliot Wild]

Uhhhhh, is there really any way to apply lotion to women's breasts other than 'sensuously'? I mean, even if one clumsily slabs the stuff on, it still tends to be a pretty sensual act, or at least I've always thought so.

I guess my point is this, I just don't believe it is possible for a 26-year-old topless sunbather to spread on lotion without raising the attention of teenage boys. I am certain it would have gotten my attention.

Yes, I would be troubled too if I was 14 and unable to look at a pair of breasts every now and then.

Revolting ode to some poor victimized lads

A mother concerned for her sons
said Luisa should cover her guns
The row was so lame.
The actual shame
was that she had covered her buns.

 

[Twilight Hue]

Speaking as a former 12 to 14 year old myself.....I will go on record to say that I completely and wholeheartedly support Topless female sunbathers and their right to apply lotion.

"Clumsily slabs the stuff on.."

Liking your style, Eliot.

Some enterprising young lads!
