Public Nudity Should Not be Allowed :: Argumentative Persuasive Essays

Public Nudity Should Not be Allowed                In the spend of 1996 Gwen Jacobs enjoyed a topless summer stroll duringwhich she was seen by a local O.P.P officer, was apprehended and subsequentlycharged with indecent exposure.  Gwen Jacobs pleaded not guilty in lawcourt and wonthe right to go topless in Ontario.  This incident brought up an excellentquestion should women be allowed to go topless on public beaches and in otherpublic areas?  The answer is strictly no, women should not be allowed to gotopless anywhere outside of their own home.                One of the gentlemans gentlemany reasons why I believe that women should not be allowedto go topless is with respect to the safety of women.  Men and boys have, inrecent years, been using short, tight, skirts and shirts as an excuse for rapeor date rape.   Men have said that the gir l was wearing a tight shirt and shortskirt and it was obvious that she was easy and wanted the attention.  This rehearsal leads me to my next point.      The average human being upon first contact with a stranger bases hisinitial impression of that person solely on the persons appearance.  This isonly inseparable as the only thing that we know about this stranger is what we seeof them the first time we meet.  We all are aware of the sayingsPreppy,Jockish,Skater,Sluty etc.  This final saying, Sluty is understand by 90 percent of North Americans as a tight skirt and tight tank topwhich happens to be the usual ensemble of a prostitute.  This first impressionof a girl in nothing but a skirt and a bare chest will no enquiry elevate to thenew version of a Slut and a girl that wants it.                My second point is, what kind of questions will a mother be asked by herson when he sees a half nude woman walking down the street.  The first questionthat this child will ask is why do these women have no shirt on and you do?Your reply will be well ahhh go talk to your father.  This dilemma will no querybe brought about as these and other questions about the sexual nature of thebody will be put forth by young children.  Questions that you as a parent do notfeel should be answered truthfully to such a young child.                My third point begins thousands of years ago when man first walked onthe earth.  When man first walked he hunted and his wife(clothless) cleaned thegame and took care of the young.
