"To BE or not to BE"
"BE" relates to Butt Exposure.
I'm sick and tired of seeing women's bare backsides.
I understand that people have different views of what is acceptable attire, but there needs to consideration of others, particularly in places that you should be able to visit without being offended.
Every day we are confronted by images on TV, in magazines, on the internet etc. and even on so called news websites (Yahoo today January 29, 2021, 4 out of 10 news items were of semi naked women). Next thing it will be acceptable for women to walk into shopping centres with their butt exposed. Wake up.
People are probably saying, well don't go to those places where it might be. Are you kidding...it's everywhere! For example, I went to a family gathering for Australia Day, which was held on the small grass strip along Estuary Drive, Dawesville. One would expect that this is public open space. Low and behold, a woman with a string (unseen) up her backside. I know a case where a guy was charged for showing his butt on Australia Day, how is this any different to that?
This is unexpected and totally unacceptable given the area and the occasion. So, can we expect the same from the swimming pool at the town centre?
Mandurah is becoming a place I probably don't wish to live in anymore. Take me out of here.
L. Hine, Erskine
