I was so disappointed to read the bitches this week, especially the one regarding the naked bike ride. First off, this annual event was advertised. If you have an issue with naked people, then stay the fuck inside for an hour! Secondly, don’t push your repression and anger onto other people. All the persons involved in that bike ride have the same body you do, but your insecurities prevent you from sharing the beauty of simply being yourself in your skin and that’s too fucking bad. So, maybe instead of freaking out every time you see too much skin you should go home and figure out what you hate about yourself and why you need to bring other people down with your anger and pain. Props to everyone with the courage to let the whole city see you naked. You are all strong and beautiful creatures! Continue to express yourselves fully and don’t let any of the self repressed jerks in this world get you down! —All Nudes are Good News

All Nudes are not good. Listen, if you can’t bring attention to your issue without removing your clothes, then you need to rethink things. Have a little decency.
Too many dudes.
Did that bike ride even have a point, because all people remember is a bunch of naked people biking and people being disgusted by it…..way to go at not getting across whatever point they were protesting or trying to make. Maybe their junk will get caught in the spokes next time.
There’s actual political motivation for WNBR? That’s news to me. According to Wikipedia, it’s actually an offshoot of Critical Mass.

Those Naked Bike Rider organizers GLUED posters to buildings. I was going to write a bitch about it but never got around to it. Thanks for the reminder. Next time just staple your garbage to a pole like everyone else.
nope…some peeps should just have the good grace to not be naked..i mean come on..
Umm not everyone wants to see a bunch of naked people biking down the road sorry OP with their flab blowing in the wind.
To put the publics eyes through that tourture. They weren’t even nice looking bodies…if anything it sshould promote fitness. hahaha
“Did that bike ride even have a point”
Moreso than any post you’ve ever posted.
I thought that everybody (hehe, punny) camo-painted their naught bits.
I got into the city too late & missed it 🙁

Say what?!? I think I need to take at look at that fountain before I go home… http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sb-DTrMG4vs
Na, they do not have the same body as me. I look good naked. If I want someone to see my naked body I make sure they wanna see it too.
If I wanna see naked people I’ll watch porn. You have the freedom to do it and other have the right to be put off by it. Matter fact you don’t really have the right to do it because I’m pretty sure it’s against the law.
I resent that I got taken to drunk tank, not before I was beat up by two big cops, just for leaving the dome and walking peacefully to my buddies place while minding my own business, charged with public drunkeness, and you can flash the whole city in the middle of the day and don’t catch a public indecency charge.
Just cuz I don’t enjoy lookin at sloppy naked people doesn’t mean I have body issues you pretentious hippy fuck. Go eat another acid tab and stare at the sun.
I didn’t witness the bike ride for the record and I wouldn’t have been all that put off by it but still, I hate when people always want to make things bigger than they are. Not too many people enjoy looking at unattractive naked people. Simple as that. Doesn’t mean they hate themselves or their bodies or whatever.
We are all human.
We all have the same parts and it is only skin.
Only in North America are we so sexualized by skin.
LEt it hang loose, its more comfortable.
Be free
And if you dont like it, I agree, stay the fuck home.
Mmm skin.
jibber_jabber “only in North America are we so sexualized by skin”
And what, prey tell, are they sexualized by in other parts of the world? I’ve been around the world a little bit, I know what you mean, people here are more prudish, but people in other countries wouldn’t necessarily be in love with this kind of thing and either way so what? That’s just how it is here it’s part of our culture, we like our privacy and we don’t like to know stranger’s nasty business/intimate details about them, you know stuff like, what their junk looks like.
It’s against the law and if I have to sit in a cell for 15 hours for walking around dunk you have to do the same for walking around, in this case biking, naked. It’s indecent good sir.
Now, I mean, I get it. I get what it represents and that’s cool, but you can’t go and do something like this and then get upset when people are offended or put off by it. That’s the whole point isn’t it? Trying to draw attention to it, create controversy, create dialogue. I don’t like how OB who I assume is you generalizes everyone who doesn’t want to see a bunch of naked idiots biking around downtown as uptight sexually repressed prudes that have body image issues. I like my body just fine I just don’t want to see yours. If I go flash someone I might have to register as a sex offender.
The bike ride wouldn’t and doesn’t really effect me. I’d probably laugh if I was present, but how the fuck are you really gonna be indignant and surprised if people aren’t all that enthusiastic. You of all people OB/JJ should know, different strokes. You can’t support something like this and then get mad when people are opposed to it.
I know if I was in the middle of trying to eat something and I saw some a middle aged dude’s sweaty ass on a bicycle seat I might be a little grossed out to say the least.
Yeah, I just said the same thing 6 different ways, so what.
Suffice it to say it’s a 2 way street OP. Which applies here because we’re talking about a bike ride.
you are born to this would naked, what the hell is wrong with being naked as you get older. there would be a lot less sex crimes, if everyone didn’t have to wear clothes.
i for one, embrace the idea of being bare skinned, always hated to wear any type of clothing. look at the prehistoric people, no fucking armani, or other shit there. up til they started getting cold, in the ice age, did they syart to wear anything.
humans come in all shapes and sizes, thank fuck for that, or we’d go nuts trying to figure out who each other was.the same goes for skin color, without the different tones, we’d all be pretty fucked up after awhile, being only one color.
Agreed Sucks, I just don’t think you can make both arguments as the OP is doing.
You wanna call attention to the fact that people are too uptight about nudity, you can’t be surprised when people are just that.
But bottom line it’s against the law, and for a reason.
“So, maybe instead of freaking out every time you see too much skin you should go home and figure out what you hate about yourself and why you need to bring other people down with your anger and pain. “
eeeeeeuuuuuuggggghhhhh go fuck yourself.
I’m nekid right now… and I look GOOOOOOD! 😉
