With self ID does this mean we can finally free the nipple?

Just thinking that walking around with our baps out should now be fine if we temporarily self Id as men... or on social media... I’m sure there’s a protest idea here somewhere I mean this isn’t what they expected is it? A load of free nipples 😂 ..help?

Similarly, I wonder if we may now be able to 'free the todger' 😂. I've never understood why full male nudity is seen as so offensive by the media/film industry whilst female nudity is seen as sensual.

Because most of it is made by men for men?

I find it v funny when in response to women complaining about the avalanche of images of women / girls even skimpily dressed / semi naked / sexualised all over the place to sell everything you can think of (although I genuinely think things have got a better in UK over last 20/30 years)

Some men say OH but womens bodies are objectively nicer to look at

They genuinely think that gay men and het women prefer looking at attractive women to attractive men...!
OR usually they have never thought about it at all, so used as they are to everything pandering to het male gaze
They honestly believe that because this is what they like to look at most, it is univeral..
There's some actual privilege for you Smile

I'm not keen on the free the nip stuff

I see the point and where they are coming from

But it's putting the cart before the horse, I think.

You don't often see older women joining in with it, I don't think, which is telling.

You can if you id as non-binary too, I know of someone on Instagram who does this, and they let her have her nipples out, they had previously deleted her topless pics before she told them she IDs as non-binary

Have to be canny with any protests though - from what I read above, Man Friday carried out their protest at the Hampstead Male Swimming area and thus didn't leave themselves open to accusations of having done it in front of kids, which would have been the case if they'd done it at a public baths or the beach (I'm assuming that this pond is for hard-core swimmers rather than a bunch of shocked six year olds).
