The difference between topless men, and topless women.
 
Why is it that a female without a shirt, is considered porn (or inappropriate), but a male without a shirt isn't?

I don't understand the difference.

Trigear 5th November 2003 02:36

one word: poobies.

ryan 5th November 2003 02:40

But still, Some men have poobies, and some women don't. I don't see the point. Why not say a topless man is innappropriate too.

hawk606 5th November 2003 02:42

why does my sister have posters of topless backstreet boys or whatnot, whereas If I tried the same thing with any female musician, my mom would have a fit?

maybe she just knows I have way more class than my sister :p

I was always under the impression that this was, if not purely an American construct, at least more of a "bad thing" here than in other *cough* European *cough* countries. I seem to remember a certain French fella grumbling cause the entrance to his school was covered with a well endowed art display, and it depressed him. But I digress.

At any rate, I feel it's related to the fear of accepting anything sexual as natural. I'll spare you the rant about MPAA ratings. :)

i never understood it either. its a thing created by society, thats my guess.

BigBob 5th November 2003 03:24

Because a shirtless women really turns on a man, but a shirtless guy doesn't have the same effect on women. The world doesn't more horny men.

iomegajaz 5th November 2003 03:29

Ah, but I think the deeper question that idiot is getting at is, why does the average man get more turned on by a topless member of the opposite sex, than the average woman does?

BullGawD 5th November 2003 03:32

I'm not sure, but I'm sure it has to do with the fact that nothing on a girl stands up when she gets excited. :p

Possibly stems from a fixation of sustenance-giving mammary glands developed at an infantile age?

White Raven 5th November 2003 04:16

Hey a shirtless guy turns me on, just... Not his boobs, in particular.

I guess it's societarian pressures, I was asking the same question in the summertime. Answer: There is no answer. It's society and culture.

BigBob 5th November 2003 04:21

Just the word 'shirtless' turned me on!!!! Notice how frequent guys are responding to this post!:D

But, this could very well be caused by the fact that women aren't allowed to go topless. Go to a nudist camp and spot the regulars walking around with erections... doubt there will be many at all.

that'd be my guess. freud would say it has to do with an oedipal impulse on the part of males.

while schmoking der ceeegar.

Freud says a lot of stuff, most of it not proven, and not capable of being proven

BullGawD 5th November 2003 05:00

prove it.

:rolleyes: the fact that freud's theories cannot be tested in any manner or sort is proof enough.. :rolleyes:

iomegajaz 5th November 2003 05:12

Go do your mother in the arse, and then tell me his theories aren't able to be tested.

Sorry, that was a bit gross. My point is, how are they not testable?

horse-fly 5th November 2003 05:18

science revolves around measurement and such... and definitions are also key... so 5 quarts of water will always be 5 quarts of water, as long as there are 5 quarts and defined by measurement and water being H20...

Freud talked about random things like penis envy, dream interpretation, etc. and freuds theories used idea and concepts that aren't too easily defined (ie make a universal definition for "happier" and how to measure it +0.1% happier).

Psychology, the field where freud worked it, is a science, so it requires all those precise measurements and definitions (so they are able to track brain waves during your sleep, increase heart beat in sexual intercourse, etc).

BullGawD 5th November 2003 05:32

Nah ah. It's a science in the same way history is a "science". In that post WWII hipster-science rush among the Academy to lay claim to the respect and funding being granted to hardline sciences. There's a fact side and an interpretive side.

You provide nothing that says Freud’s theories aren't testable. What you are relying on is the idea that we have yet to develop the desire or the discipline to produce a multi-generational study of such minute exactitude and simultaneous broad generalization as to take steps toward confirming or denying such theories - a study which must entail historical sociological factors, immediate sociological factors, and an involved study of individual characteristics and history, compounded with hereditary data, compounded with civic data to quantify feelings, traditions and ideas.

I’m not defending Freud. I’m just saying that you’ve committed a non sequitur fallacy, (huh huh, fallus) and that the contextually undeveloped nature of science bears as much of the "blame" as Freud’s premises.

I wanna talk about boobies some more. Where's Bilbo? Fuck Bilbo, he hates mountain lion kittens. Where's ShyShy? :p

I never came on a topless man's chest.

BullGawD 5th November 2003 05:42

anal only, eh?

:D Please don't hurt me. Not like that you perv. Stop touching me.

ShyShy 5th November 2003 05:44

/note to self: Sandman has no aim what-so-ever, appear hand-eye coordination slightly "off" :p

Sandman2012 5th November 2003 05:47

BullGawD: I'll stop touching you when you let go. :P

ShyShy: you're the one who claims to be from my bedroom. :P

ShyShy 5th November 2003 05:49

And which is why I can bitch about your aim :rolleyes:

Sandman2012 5th November 2003 05:51

I apologize profusely for not thinking clearly at the height of climax. Perhaps if you weren't watching TV during the act I could concentrate...

BullGawD 5th November 2003 05:53

Armegeddon! ARMEGEDDON!!!

hrm. some folks aren't going to get that reference. hamsters?

ShyShy 5th November 2003 05:53

Well if you would be more entertaining than the freakin' stock reports I would :p

Xerxes 5th November 2003 05:53

What a saucy exchange! (And I mean saucy in both senses of the word)

ShyShy 5th November 2003 05:56

Yeah, you can enjoy it, Xerxes, you're not the one who has to wash the silk sheets. Do you know how hard it is to get stains out of those?

I can't decide which joke to post so I'll put 'em both:

a) it's not my fault the economy is so exciting

b) economists wish stock prices could stay up as long as I can.

:aardvark:

ShyShy 5th November 2003 06:01

That was lame, Sandman. *whack* Next?

Sandman2012 5th November 2003 06:05

Yeah, those were lame. :(

My delivery is much better in person. :D

BullGawD 5th November 2003 06:07

*snicker* :D

ryan 5th November 2003 11:36

Or it could come from decades ago when a woman just showing her ankles was considered 'inappropriate'..

Now.. back on topic.. or yeah something.. NO MORE SPOOGE JOKES :D
