Nudity, Is It Sexist In This Forum?

[SteelCurtain]

It is taking a sexist law farther. By taking something we all agree is sexist and instead of working to change that part of it--we make a move that accomplishes nothing except a token show of solidarity--but actually more permanently entrenches the original sexism, because nothing changes outside of this forum.

But you're not responsible for anything outside this forum, and no one is asking you to assume that repsonsibility outside your own purview. But surely you can have a say here, in this little corner of the internet, right? I'm not sure how emplacing a nonsexist policy here more permanently entrenches the original sexism, though. Could you expand upon that?

"Think globally, act locally" is something that in my military days I scoffed at as hippie-dippy bullshit. But I think it's an approach that should be given more thought here, no matter your personal feelings about the OP or her heavy-handed approach. I just don't understand why the line is being drawn here.

But what will this accomplish, realistically?

Acting locally is great in theory, but how will this affect the larger picture? In my opinion, it will only further entrench the original issue of considering female breasts/nipples as pornographic if we *wink wink* ban male nipples as a token show of solidarity. It does not in any way do anything whatsoever to address the underlying issue.
