Soxy Posted July 11, 2005 Share Posted July 11, 2005 Interesting Guess what? Men don't mind seeing naked women... Mon Jul 11, 9:15 AM ET ROME (Reuters) - Most Italians think nude sunbathing is perfectly natural and don't mind crossing paths with bottomless beach-goers -- even when those bottoms are unsightly, survey results released Sunday said. While topless sunbathing is widely practiced in Italy, bottoms are usually required and nudists can face fines of more than 500 euros ($595) on some beaches, the Italian Naturalist Federation said. But the federation said a poll it commissioned from a mainstream media outlet found nearly 70 percent of those surveyed said they would sunbath nude if everyone else did it. More than 80 percent said nudism was not erotic, but natural. Women were more frequently bothered by nude sunbathing than men. Just over 40 percent of women said they did not like seeing other naked females on the beach, while just 5 percent of men shared their opinion about nude women. The survey found nearly two-thirds of men said they weren't bothered by nude male sunbathers. When it came to unattractive or "brutto" sunbathers, most of those surveyed in the country that champions physical beauty said they didn't object to seeing them naked either. Only about 16 percent said they were vexed by unattractive women nudists and 9.7 percent objected to unsightly men. The Federation said the survey would bolster their hopes of getting more beaches set aside for nude sunbathing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LosMediasBlancas Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 Let me get this straight, by law everyone has to wear bottoms. Ya think maybe men drafted up that ordinance? What's at a nude beach for the ladies? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
