This is true…one of the reasons I am a big advocate of nude recreation is that I’m a guy and most of the men’s trunks have gotten ridiculously long and modest. They’re like shants, nowadays. All my life I’ve been one to say less is more and modesty is a bore, so the great thing about a nude beach is that this weird double standard of male versus female no longer has any relevance.
I believe there was actually an indecent exposure case where the accused defended herself with this claim, that since she was unshaven, her genitals were not actually exposed. The judge agreed with her, but commented in his decision that he suspected that the legislature might change that law.
Hey, I’m a man, and I understand completely. I think Uncommon Sense is pretty much alone in his logic, if it is indeed his logic, and he’s not faking it.
I did test that once. I walked in on my GF when she was getting out of the shower, and she thought it was someone else. What then happened was kind of like what missbunny described, but she made it sound so calculated. What actually happened was that GF turned violently, causing her ample bosom to go in several directions at once, while she tried to simultaneously catch them and cover them with one arm and try to cover her nether regions with the other. All of which threw her off balance so that she banged her ankle into the steam heating valve, at about which time she realized it was me and started screaming at me for walking in on her. She was pissed the whole evening, but it was a hell of a show, and well worth it.
Probably their face after I punched that sucker out; or were you not talking about random home invaders? 
Actual Woman here - I’d wear a freaking top. I just would. If it were a real nude beach then of course I wouldn’t mind showing off my body, but the boobs do better with support. More comfortable. That is all.
Make sure to tell her it’s for science.
About time someone commented! 
I would also wear just the bottoms. I’m less shy about showing my breasts than my genitals.
Um, why the sandals?
I spent time on French beaches, where topless is the norm.
I had no problems going topless at all, even though I’d been in France for only a couple of months, and had lived in the US for many years.
I also breastfed both my children, both in public and private, in the US. While I did use blankets or towels or private areas for the sake of those around me, I certainly wouldn’t have minded simply baring my breasts for the comfort of my babies, if societal norms would have accepted it without having me arrested.
That said, I don’t think it would bother me that much to go bottomless as well as topless, if the situation didn’t mean I would offend anyone. I’m not going to go out of my way to go nude on a beach, but if I were presented with the opportunity, I doubt I would turn it down.
Oh, I didn’t mean that no man would understand. Just him, or maybe some men. Although I think he might just be the only one.
It did come out sounding like some long drawn-out thought-out process. It would really happen pretty much like what happened with your girlfriend. I would also be doing a lot of shrieking, and depending on who the person was, reaching for the 4’ long 2" dowel I keep under the bed as a weapon.
This sounds similar to the Maine (or was it Massachusetts? Some ‘M’ New England state) case with the two female joggers - but in that one, as I recall, they argued that their genitals weren’t exposed because female genitals are internal, and the judge ruled similarly, complete with comment.
Personally, I probably would go without bottoms because I am very fair skinned, and the last thing I need is sunburned nipples. I don’t even want to hear about sunscreen…if I don’t use spf 45 at least every 20-30 minutes I burn. So long as I wasnt doing any cartwheels or anything I could probably manage to avoid burning my other bits too badly, so I am going to have to vote bottoms. However, were we to be in a nudist movie screening, nudist shopping mall, or some other indoor nudist event I would have to keep my top.
:smack: I meant, lose the top and keep the bottom.
