To report manky arsed neighbour for indecent exposure?

[Coffeeisking]

There is some flats that back onto my garden. only 2 floors, and they are generally 1 bed flats for the elderly or single people. They are mostly a very strange lot.

For 2 nights now i've gone into my garden for a 'breather' and his curtains haven't been fully closed. each time he has got up from his sofa with no trousers or pants on, stood there for a while then put his trousers on! All in full view of my garden.

Yesterday he turned round ( after dressing himself!! Thank god!!) and must have seen me in my garden, but still did the same just now! He must know i regularly go into my garden, and most of the time the curtains are closed at night.

Its not even a nice arse, not that it would matter obviously ;-) should i report it to our estate manager or would the police be best to deal with it?

I will add, before anyone says not to look, its hard not to. the flats pretty much block any view of anything. i normally have my phone with me so i dont look at anything. i always feel uncomfortable in my garden.

I would go have a quiet word with him, "I don't known if you've realised it but .... ", if you're not comfortable saying anything then your DP or a male friend might? Or ask the building manager/landlord to have a discrete word. If he's got his back to the window he possibly hasn't realised that there's a gap in the curtains or that he can be seen.

I also don't understand the double standard. I wonde what the responses would be like if it was the OP's child/ren who had spied the naked neighbour?

I think you are actually enjoying it, OP

Decent people don't walk around bollock naked with their curtains open.

Knock on his door and ask him if he is aware that you can regularly see his hairy arse?

If he still displays his wares after that he is a flasher and you should call the old bill.

FFS just ask him not to - don't call the police!

What happened to communication?

Ugly Naked Guy I wonder what he has been up to since he moved away?

The police wouldn't give a flying fuck if this man is naked in his own home and why should they? It's not like it's illegal or anything

If he was deliberately holding his curtains/blinds open and exposing himself out the window...that would be an entirely different matter.

Just stop looking at him.

You do know he moved - he moved out and Ross got his apartment.

'to nip it in the bud first'

he wouldn't want that.

I facilitate sex offender treatment programmes and I have seen many men convicted of indecent exposure having carried out very similar behaviour. Despite initial pleas of this being accidental, didn't realise anyone could see etc I have yet to come across one man who, in the course of treatment, hasn't eventually conceded that he was doing this intentionally for sexual gratification. I'd tell the police.

Useful post, Shelfy, I hadn't realised.

A friend of mine was a naturalist and had a visit from the police following a complaint from a neighbour. He'd been walking around in his conservatory, thinking that he was private because of the fence dividing their properties. He wasn't.

It's a common misconception that you can do what you like in your own home.
