has recently made several posts on the topic of this lady who took a pic of a guy who started whacking himself off at her on public transit and posted it in hopes that he’s brought to ‘justice’. My feelings are mixed. I’m not in favor of exposing oneself in public without the consent of any immediately impacted parties. Such consent can be implied. For instance, I don’t need to say I’m okay with seeing public spankings of bare butts if I go to the Folsom Street Fair. My attendance implies that I’m cool with it. <\/p>\n

Also, I think that our society is way too uptight about sex. Graphic decapitations are perfectly fine to show to your kids, but graphic orgasms are not. I think our society already overreacts to innappropriate sexual behavior. E.g., you don’t have a right to know if a convicted and released murderer lives on your block, but in many places you do have the right to know if a flasher lives on your block.<\/p>\n

And it highlights the same sort of mentality that “porn\/prostitution degrades women” and well, what about men? I remember a female grabbing my ass by surprise in high school (once and only once). That was ‘funny’. Had I, or perhaps, a hetero male, done the same thing to a woman, I suspect there would have been hell to pay.<\/p>\n

In my ideal world, the woman in question would have loudly and exhasperatedly said something biting and derisive of the man’s apparent inability to get laid and inadequate genitalia and he would have been mortified. Needless to say, we do not live in my ideal world.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
