Europe has no problem with mixed gender nudity in many similar situations, especially communal bathing. For example, nude beaches, saunas, the century-old German FKK movement, etc. Don’t project your own hangups onto the rest of the world.
- DwnVoteHoneyPot 11mo agoI think you're misunderstanding what he is saying. I believe he is saying other people have projected their hangups ("top down enforcement in new social norms") which has caused casual nudity cease to function. And you're saying in Europe people haven't projected sexuality onto nudity, therefore it still works. So you guys are saying the same thing.
- soperj 11mo ago> As soon as there are homosexuals or people who want to be perceived as the opposite gender involved, the social contract which made casual nudity work ceased to function. > I would not want to be nude in a changing room with homosexual men or women. I don't think they are.
- TimorousBestie 11mo agoIt’s funny: unless they very rarely go to a public changing room, they likely have disrobed in front of a non-straight person. Likely several times, and presumably without incident. The baseline prevalence of queerness in the world is simply not that low.
- constantcrying 11mo agoYou are taking a small part of the German population and arguing because this small population is comfortable in such a situation everyone has to be forced into these situations. This is obviously a terrible argument. No, most Germans find this disgusting and would never want to participate in this. Most Germans want to change in segregated rooms. >Don’t project your own hangups onto the rest of the world. You are projecting the sexual hangups of some Germans on to the rest of the world.
