Why should he care what others think, that is a problem for insecure people. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never go around topless unless I'm at the pool or dressing inappropriately in public. I think it's because I don't want the attention. I don't like people staring or unduly noticing me. I'm a grey man type and want to blend in and be left alone most of the time. Edited March 2 by JimTripper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you confirm what I wrote: it is because you are insecure, the person doing it is clearly not. All the arguments and motivations you might have to not do it, is again only to protect your own insecure state of thinking as well as ego, if you would get rid of that, you would not give a toss too. But I agree entirely, I prefer seeing people with shirts on too, specially if its a guy lol. Life is so much more relaxed if being able to not care, a great book to this is ''the subtle art of not giving a <deleted>''.

still kicking Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 With Thailand’s hot, humid, and dry temperature, it’s understandable that a lot of tourists choose to go around without a shirt. But when you’re driving a vehicle, always keep your clothes on no matter how hot it is. If the police pull you over for driving shirtless, expect to be hit with a fine or even jail time. So keep your shirt on and save your skimpiest outfits for the beach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GammaGlobulin Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 I live naked. It's the only way for me. I just don't like the feel of clothes, unless I venture out of my house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GammaGlobulin Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 (edited) One of my favorite authors while young was Daniel Defoe. When I was young, I read all his wonderful novels. I don't mean just the Crusoe book, but also Moll Flanders, and the rest. So, anyway, when I was young, I used to imagine myself on an island where I would have no need to wear any clothing, whatsoever. Just the thought of this way of life, without clothes, gave me an erection. These days, now old, my lack of clothing in my own house fails to give me an erection. All it does for me, these days, which is still worth a lot, is to make me feel more comfortable. Defoe was an amazing author. His writings are quite beautiful, and I love his sentences and paragraphs. Also, what is the point of being a Naked Ape if one cannot just live nakedly, and... Without prejudice ???? Note: When I was in my early teens, I used to lie naked on my bed and read Daniel Defoe. I really got off on Daniel.

I have a 46 inch waist. What about a fitted sheet, like arabs wear? Like a loose dress? Maybe the woman can fit me again and make new styles. What do you recommend she makes for me?

Those who aren't completely ignorant and more considerate in nature do care what others think, they care not to offend other with either their behavior or dress.... So, while you might be 'keen' on your security, you are also strong on your offensiveness if you are practicing what you preech. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like getting the food booths where females are serving or at least where there are two people in there watching the food.

simon43 Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 Yonks ago I was a Tourist Police Officer in Phuket. One task I had in Patong Bangla Road and environs was to politely tell shirtless tourists to put on a shirt if they were not on the beach or beach pavement. I didn't hand out this advice as a power trip. Firstly, I personally think it is very bad manners to go bare-chested if not at the beach or swimming pool. Secondly, those tourists who ignored my polite advice were then 'collared' by the Thai police who imposed a fine.... I was trying to help them to avoid the fine. No-one with any manners goes bare-chested in public unless at the beach or pool. Unfortunately, there do seem to be many (from all nationalities) who have never learnt good manners.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
