To not want to see my neighbour's cock every time I look out of my bedroom window?

Because I think I see more of his than I do of my own husband's Hmm

My very unattractive and portly over-the-road neighbour seems to enjoy fannying about in his bedroom completely in the buff. His window is right opposite mine and I only need to be doing something like pulling my blinds up and it's like "Woah, and there's your nob AGAIN."

Other people in our terrace have noticed it too. DH and I have speculated that he might be a bit of an exhibitionist as it's not even like he's naked but trying not to be seen. He stands right in the window with his family jewels out on display most days. I had to pull my blind down yesterday and put my make-up on with no natural light just so that I could avoid getting my eyes assaulted by a stranger's cock.

How should I deal with it? I've thought about mentioning it to his wife, as in "I don't know if your husband realises, but we can see a lot more of him than he probably realises. You might want to close the curtains in your bedroom in future!" or I've thought about drawing a very unflattering picture of said neighbour in the buff and anonymously posting it to him. It would be captioned "THIS IS WHAT I SEE EVERY TIME I GLANCE OUT OF MY OWN WINDOW! STOP IT!" Or I could just ring the police and report him for indecent exposure. Last one seems harsh though.

I'm not being U, am I? It's not a one-oof, it's most days. And it's rank. :(

SGB, it's legal for me to have a shit in my own home. Shall I do that by the window so my neighbours can see as well?

Lots of things are and should be legal, not all of them should be done where others can see.

CurrySpice · 26/09/2011 17:49

SGB, everyone was having a good laugh and enjoying themselves here until some miserable uptight bastards arrived!!

Bubcakes, Onagar is your neighbour!!!.
He feeling a bit embarrassed now, hence why he's being so defensive.

BupcakesandCunting · 26/09/2011 17:58

Isn't SGB a swinger or summat? Shall I check if Man Gunt has any pampas grass in his garden? If so, I'll PM him your details, mate.

I've spluttered vino over the screen, cadbury's down my nose. Spaghetti is my next aim....

Was the fart obviously yours, or could you blame anyone else in the vicinity?

I wander around the house naked sometimes. The curtains are always closed though.

ScarahStratton · 26/09/2011 18:02

I don't. It makes the dog scream :(

SecretNutellaFix · 26/09/2011 18:03

ScarahStratton · 26/09/2011 18:06

My cats just look at me in disgust and turn their backs.Smile

JarethTheGoblinKing · 26/09/2011 18:08

gunt?!?? Confused

OpinionatedMum · 26/09/2011 18:09

It's not illegal so I doubt the police will do anything.

Put a polite note through his door advising him to invest in some net curtains for his bedroom.

If that fails go round there and chop his knob off.

Digggers · 26/09/2011 18:12

He might be short sighted and assume you can't see him. In an old flat I lived in I never wore my glasses indoors. When I looked out of my window at the block of flats opposite I couldn't see in their windows , so I guess I kinda assumed they couldn't see in mine. It was only after a year or so of living there when I got contacts that I didn't automatically take off when I got in the house that I realised that I was perfectly visible and got nets asap.

So maybe don't just assume he's a pervert straight away, it might be innocent. I'd say a polite and slightly embaressed note/conversation, and then give him the chance to stop it before humiliating him or getting the police involved

ReadyToDrink · 26/09/2011 18:26

Er, Buppy, I refer you to my post of 14:33. Ignorant cahhhhh.

BupcakesandCunting · 26/09/2011 18:37

I know. Mundane because I and my neighbours don't particularly want to see a stranger's meat and two veg' on display every day. Hmm

I'd love to know what kind of world SGB lives in. I bet it's like a non-stop hen party in Amsterdam.

Next time it happens, rush downstairs and across the road, bang breathlessly on the door and say to whoever answers - " quick quick shut the curtains, half the street can see your / your DHs bits and I'd hate for some kid to get the wrong idea and mention it to their parents or teacher".

spiderpig8 · 26/09/2011 18:46

i think people are entitled to be naked in their own bedroom.Don't look , or close the curtains if you don't want to see!

BupcakesandCunting · 26/09/2011 18:49

Huh? Why should I need to deprive myself of daylight to avoid seeing someone's dick?! He needs to close his curtains, I'm afraid.

If you're not prepared to go about your house blind folded, the least you could do is brick your windows up

VivaLeBeaver · 26/09/2011 19:06

It is illegal. As I said down thread I know someone who was prosecuted for this.

pigletmania · 26/09/2011 19:12

ROFL at this thread GrinGrinGrin snigger snigger. Wish I lived in Bupcakes house tee hee, give me a cheer up each morning. Yes I agree with Jareth take a photo and write on the back to keep his curtains closed.

ScarahStratton · 26/09/2011 19:12

I very briefly lived near a couple who were swingers.

It was a bit of an eye opener into the murky world of car keys and pampas grass...

pigletmania · 26/09/2011 19:13

Now if it was one of the Chippendales than that would be a different matter Grin
