“Even if a child doesn’t know what a latex suit is or the sexual connotations, it’s still a very scary sight and puts parents in a very uncomfortable position when it comes to explaining to their children what is going on.”
I mean, if that's the best complaint they can muster....
Yeah children young enough not to know probanly.wouldn't even care, just think the man is wearing a marvel costume or pyjamas or something, rally not hard to say "just what he choose to wear". It on you if you want to start going into fetish talk with your child
"It's just an extra fancy outfit grown-ups wear."
"No you can't have one."
"They don't do them in your size."
"Trust me, I know."
"No I won't be Googling that up."
"Because daddy needs to pass a CRB check next month, that's why."
Yup. "Some people like to dress differently. But try not to stare, that would be rude."
Some people have feet fetishes but people are still allowed to walk around with their feet out. Some people like armpits and people still show those off. I think just because a group fetishizes something doesn't mean it needs to be locked away and hidden from children.
Exactly. Tell your child he is a weirdo. Normal people don’t dress as a gimp in public, BUT if that’s what makes you happy then who are we to stop it.
America as a whole is a bit prudish anyways. People want to walk around in skimpy clothing i dont see any issue with it if genitals are covered.
What has America got to do with this?
I otherwise agree, that parents can just tell the children that the man is a weirdo. Considering that pride parades can have sex toys on display during the middle of the day, I don't think this even begins to be as provocative as other things we allow.
America? Is there another Globe there then?
You expect them to just keep the gimp locked in the dungeon like some kind of… oh right.
if you ever go to a place that has strange rules and laws, it's because of people like this
like, yes, okay, there's no rule that said you couldn't attend a public event in a gimp suit. it doesn't mean that he had to, did he? 🙄
i think it's obvious he's exploiting the freedom provided to dress in a gimp suit, which freedom you would use to attend a fetish/like-minded event or convention, to then attend something vanilla, where people are definitely not consenting or opting-in to the behaviour.
sure, it's legal. but it's fuckin weird, in the same way that attending in a furry costume would be weird. buying a yard ticket too? he knew what he was doing. if you can afford a fetish suit, you can afford a seat.
i will say that the moral "think of the children" arguments don't have any weight in this scenario, because you're taking those kids to a shakespeare play, lol. i could understand being morally outraged if this loser turned up to wacky warehouse 😄
Seats there are so uncomfortable you're probably better off standing. At least you can move about a bit. Important if you're in your gimp suit.
oh is it that bad there? fair enough :)
Are you worried seeing him would make those kids into gimps?
I'm not sure gimping is infectious like that, but it's fucking weird.
I have no idea. I don't care as long as it wasn't too revealing on the crotch. As says I'd be more worried about heat.
Should a guy in a speedo be allowed to watch?
Depends how well smuggled the budgie is
Given the rain and temperature, he'd be lucky if anyone could tell he had a small bird hidden about his person.
Hehe. Fair enough about the heat. Could be dangerous.
What? Like the guy who raised a million quid for charity tramping up and down the country in Speedos?
Very good point the globe is outside in the stalls you need something waterproof
Bring on the gimp!
