What about women walking down the street with their knees exposed? That was shocking, too, at one time.
What if the schoolgirls just laughed at Mr trenchcoat, and went back to their games. What's shocking is learned. A century ago parents would have covered their children's eyes at the sight of today's beach attire. Today it's a yawn, and the kids just ignore it.
It's the unconventional that's shocking, not nudity per se.
Toplessness is legal in New York City. Predictions of bedlam in the streets failed to materialize. In fact, pretty much nothing happened.
Peeping? -- a violation of personal privacy. I'm agin' it.
There's aggression, and there's casual nudity. I've no objection to the latter.
