To hate men walking around with shirts off

[clearwaters]

It's really not lovely, is it?

AIBU to want them to cover up? So common.

[KingJoffreysRestingCuntface]

Depends who it is.

If it's Charlie Hunnam or the bloke who plays Poldark I could make my peace with it.

Dave who runs the fishing tackle shop? Not so much.

[MabelFurball]

YANBU especially when they are usually scrawny runts.

[harderandharder2breathe]

I don't like it, especially when they're all sweaty and double especially if they're sweaty and sunburned

I may be the wrong person to ask though; as a lesbian I have little appreciation of men's arms and chests!

[SaltySalt]

Like this then no

[Bluntness100]

I agree. Wish they would cover up. It's not a good look.

[SaltySalt]

Like this then yes

He could be the hottest man alive (pun intended!) and it would still be a massive turn-off for me.

[Pebbles1989]

On the beach is different, obviously.

[SaltySalt]

So good I posted twice

They should all put something on. Regardless of appearance. And not because it's 'common' either. It's because it's not appropriate in the street, and because it makes other people feel uncomfortable/threatened.

I was on a baking hot bus today and a guy gets on with no top on. Backpack, but no top. Sits next to me. Sweating. I could see his armpits. I could smell him. General air of arrogance with a hint of challenge about him. Badly done tattoos. I should not have to squash In against a half naked man when I'm just on my way somewhere. Put on a t shirt (clean)

I'm with you Pebbles, I find it off putting regardless of how attractive or 'fit' they are.

[justdontevenfuckingstart]

The car valeter at work today had a massive back tattoo, that wasn't hard to look at, plus he's such a lovely guy you don't need an excuse to talk to him. Roll on next month!!

[clearwaters]

I just don't like seeing it no matter what they look like.

[MrsPorth]

I've seen some sights today...scrawny/plump men in no tops and scrawny/plump women in little vest tops. In fairness though, it was very hot and it's important to be comfortable I suppose.

YANBU but only because women are not allowed to do the same! I see nothing wrong with it, but on our day out yesterday I was miffed that I had to cover up and DH and DS didn't! I had my vest too clinging to me cos the sweat couldn't evaporate!!

Nudity is only a problem because we have been brought up believing it to be so. I'd have no problem sitting next to a half naked anybody - we all have 'bits' after all.

[ForalltheSaints]

I think that where it is acceptable for a man to be without a top it should be acceptable for a woman. Which means men covering up in many places not all of them do now.

[ambereeree]

Oh it is when they're tennis players walking home showing off tanned six packs.

[CrumblingTeeth]

YANBU. I don't get why it's acceptable for blokes to go around topless. I don't care what they look like, they all need to put tops on! Especially in shops/cafes etc.

[SignoraStronza]

We had one in the waiting room today. I actually said "Could you put some clothes on please? I've had enough excitement for one day!"
I think he took it in good grace.

[robinia]

In general yanbu. My tolerance level is a little higher for the Aidan Turner and tennis types
But I'd feel uncomfortable sitting next to any of them on a bus - if unattractive because it's yeuch and if attractive - well ... because!!

[LadyDeadpool]

Funny someone posted a thread the other day complaining about women with their bums hanging out their shorts and was told she was unreasonable and it was none of her buisness what people wore or chose not to wear and that no man should ever look twice at someone with their bum hanging out and yet here we have "YANBU as long as they're good looking". And then posters wonder why MN is seen as sexist!
