Naked people in town.

Am I being judgemental or what? 2 self styled naturists have been hanging out naked in my town, a man and a woman, and I do feel particularly affronted because there it is all hanging out in front of all the local kids and it was obvious people felt uncomfortable especially at the cafe they stopped in at.
When I protested I got a right mouthful and told I am "ill". But quite frankly I think kids should be able to go to the shops without being confronted by naked people, it's bloody freezing as well,.I've got 2 jumpers on.They are posting pics of themselves all over the local facebook pages of their "lifestyle".
The joke of it is I am a naturist myself but I keep my fat backside within the confines of my club and only go there when it's warm to sunbathe, enjoy the summer and swim - they have a lovely pool. The rest of the time I have my clothes on.
You would not catch me walking naked through the high street. A lot of us older naturists are pretty conservative like that.
I feel really cross about it and I don't normal allow myself to be bothered by what other people do but there is a bloody limit.
What does everyone think.

They just a bit more naturist than you are.
😉😁😁

It doesn’t stop him though does it.

I thought it did,walk a wee bit, get nicked and so it went on..take him ages to get anywhere at that rate.

A penis is an ugly thing at the best of times, who wants to see them in public?

What town is this? Asking for a friend.

Sure, of course you are! 😂😂😂

Are you in the UK because that would be classed as indecent exposure.

It's not - there's a few in our town.

Katkins17 · 12/09/2024 18:40

We are at a point where other people kinks are allowed to be in plain sight.
We're not allowed to complain or be affronted by it anymore.

There was a time, not that long ago, when someone flashing in public was called out and they were arrested....not anymore...if we protest it's called kink shaming.

It's about time shame is brought back for these freaks.

SonjaBarkerFinch · 12/09/2024 18:40

Not in a cafe! That would put me off my carrot cake.

AutumHarvestGlow · 12/09/2024 18:43

I only hope they carry a towel around to sit on

Alanfarthing · 12/09/2024 18:45

I mean , nakedness in itself is not sexual, I think I could get more worked up about other things, drugs particularly in my village. Unless they are causing a problem meh 😕

coxesorangepippin · 12/09/2024 18:47

The cheek of them

Neverheather · 12/09/2024 18:47

There are a couple of these people in Chorley. They are in their 60s and cycle naked everywhere. All through the town centre and the local roads, particularly down the canal towpath where they live. People are always posting on the local Facebook page that they've been shocked to see them hanging about the canal area, when they've been out for a walk. I didn't think it was allowed but it must be as they are always doing it. As a previous poster said, when does being naked in public become indecent exposure?

Barryplopper · 12/09/2024 18:10

Did they sit on any seats in the cafe? Surely there's a hygiene issue with this! I wouldn't want to sit on or touch a chair that someone arsehole or balls/vag had been on

This would be the main issue for me

blitzen · 12/09/2024 18:51

There was a couple in our local park last month, in the middle of the summer holidays when it was busy with families. Dirty gits.

bozzabollix · 12/09/2024 18:52

There’s a bloke in Fairlight just outside Hastings who posted on social media about his intentions to be nude at all times. I think he expected outrage but got angry when everyone just posted jokes about nudity in response. I think there’s a clear desire to shock in these cases.

Saxly · 12/09/2024 18:53

This has reminded me - my Ds saw a snake this afternoon when he was walking the dog.

Pinkmagic1 · 12/09/2024 18:56

There is one not far from me. He is always being reported, but the police won't do anything as he is apparently a naturist and not doing it to cause distress. However his walks always seem to be conveniently coincided with the local schools finishing time. Pervert at worst, exhibitionist at best if you ask me.

I came across two walking in the New Forest

We were actually looking for snakes 🤣

Did you chase them yelling " give me those snakes! I've found them, they're mine!!"?

bazoom · 12/09/2024 19:09

I'm going to have a nightmare tonight where I'm late for a meeting and somehow end up sat there with nothing on.... or wandering around a town having forgotten to get dressed.

Timeforaglassofwine · 12/09/2024 19:12

The local kids won't be scarred, they'll find it bloody hilarious.

Babbadoobabbadock · 12/09/2024 19:13

There’s a couple who ride a tandem that I see on a regular basis, it’s not them is it ?

Balloonhearts · 12/09/2024 19:16

I'd be phoning the police and telling them these people are exposing themselves to children. My kids shouldn't have to see an adult man's genitals on the way to school.

The ones near us do indeed carry towels for this reason!

do you have a go at the other members? Because we all know naturists love a public beach, so we are all subjected to seeing their junk.

No we all go a club with a very high wall round it. Not in the least public. I don't know what the others do I've never asked them.

Most of the blokes I know would walk up and thump a naked man walking around in front of their kids/ wife/ gf/mum.

Gettingbysomehow · 12/09/2024 19:20

The naked rambler has spent more time in prison for contempt of court than out of it since 2016. I honestly couldn't be bothered.
