Nude Man Brewing Coffee In His Own Kitchen Arrested For Indecent Exposure

[gsdx]

I think children are more affected by the reactions of people around them, I think the child is going to be more affected and react the same way to nudity later in life because of the Mother doing so.

And that, Sir, is a 'bingo'.

 

[NedNickerson]

Should children not be allowed into fine art museums?
Or should they be allowed, but only be allowed to see this?

They should do that one day and place a hidden camera
to film how many people try to peek under the shirt.

 

[bankside]

Not always, but occasionally the America-bashers are right. LOL.
In this case, the man probably does not care about the international reputation of his country - he probably cares more about hysterical overreaction (double meaning of the word hysterical is intentional) going on around him that has a real prospect of disrupting his life for a trivial moment of enjoying the comfort of his own home.

There is to my knowledge no allegation that he was making sexual advances through the window, only that he was in a state of undress. The country needs to get a grip (no double-entendre intended this time) and let this man get on with his life.

PS. Janet Jackson has Nipples. We suspected as much even before the Superbowl!!

GET OVER YOURSELVES PRUDE AMERICANS!

 

[RobinGoodfellow]

bankside: I don't think he cares about anyone's rep but his own. It's just a weird sitch of him being on display at the wrong time. In all honesty, although I'd argue against his right of privacy in this situation, I think he should have no problem getting off; as I said, if it hadn't happened in America, it would have been ignored.

Again, the point was that a large percentage of Americans object to children being exposed to anything even remotely related to sex and swearing, yet don't see a problem with them being exposed to violence (toy guns and other weapons, constant fighting and killing on tv and in films and games).

Actually, I think if you bothered looking around, you'd see a lot more people worried about the violence than nudity. And swearing is pretty much a joke at this point; just listen to rap and urban language sometime. I just find it amusing that some people think the problem with America is too much violence, some the wanton sex, and others that America is just too PC.

And what really amuses me is that apparently nudity is illegal in ALL of the US, but nowhere else, when it's just not the case. Take breast-feeding; in some parts of the world it's perfectly fine (even in large parts of the US), but in others it's definitely illegal. In all honesty, I haven't heard of a country that doesn't have some form of public indecency law on the books, even in Germany (where women bathe topless and they have walls for public urination) and Norway (where they have nude talk shows). And yet the only country that gets slammed for having them is the US. Sort of weird...

my opinion part two:

after careful rumination and past youth recall , i remember as a child in the mens locker room at at the country club...private and exclusive mind you...seeing buff naked and some even overweight MEN in the facility. i am sure that tragic shock caused my homosexual proclivities and this 7 year old is now doomed to be a faggot too. kife is so hard, so very, very, very hard and now another cataclysmic tragedy in the soap opera we so jokingly call life.

hey, another incipient nude coffee drinking pedophile in the making. two strokes for the team EH?

LOL someone needs to do a longitudinal study of this kid for the next 20 years to see how he turns out. You really think that your lockerroom experience at 7 years old determined your sexuality? How do you explain every other 7 year old that sees nude men? Are 90% of guys just closet homos? And would you say that a 4 year old that went through the same thing turn out gay? What about a 15 year old? What would be the critical period where the experience would need to take place?

 

[voyager6]

The guy has common-sense deficiency. How can he be 29 and not know you don't walk around nude in front of a window? Unless he gets a kick out of it...

it sounds to me like this woman & the cops have a common sense deficiency as well

 

[spencer]

If you make a big deal of nudity during their impressionable years you risk the chance of scarring their yound minds into any number of problems, shame of their body, uncomfortabilty around others, sexual issues. Why chance foster that behavior.

He shouldn't have been nude without blinds but they shouldn't have reacted the way they did, let alone bring the cops into it.

 

[Dduder]

Eric Williamson, 29, from Virginia, insists he has done nothing wrong and any exposure of his private parts was purely accidental.

Williamson was making coffee in the buff at 5:30am and standing by his kitchen window when a woman and her seven-year-old son walked along a path by his home in Springfield.

The woman then called the police.

Fairfax County Police spokeswoman Mary Ann Jennings said the woman claimed Williamson then moved and exposed himself again through a large front window.

In his defence, Williamson said: "I'm by myself. So I come down here - the roommates are gone, and it's my house.

"I never had a conversation with anyone, never saw anyone. Didn't cross my mind, came and got coffee. I mean if I stood and seemed comfortable in my kitchen possibly it's natural. It's my kitchen."

If a man is not allowed to be naked inside his own fraking house, where is he going to be allowed? Also, no one is obliged to wear clothes. No one should be forced to have fabrics restraining their bodies. I walk around my college dry cleaners naked at night and no one cares.

 

[Edward Twinkletoes]

They're not hung up on sexuality. She was with her 7-year-old kid. Not a 13 year old. I think what she did was perfectly reasonable.

When I was his age, I must have seen thousands of naked men in the showers and locker rooms at the YMCA. After I got over the initial trauma of seeing a 75 YO man completely naked (Uncircumcised, to boot!), I thought nothing of it. Trust me. People who make a big deal out of this are not only hung up on sexuality. They have a warped view of sexuality. Nudity is not necessarily sexual.

 

[blackbeltninja]

I walk around my college dry cleaners naked at night and no one cares.

I, for one, would pay good money to see that.

BOT: Is this guy going to be placed on the sex-offenders register for this? From what I can gather he would be in the UK.

-d-

 

[Paws]

your nasty body.

WTF, you (and that mother) have no taste. The guy looks hot and I would have been

As far as I know being nude isn't even illegal here when "done" in public.

I remember one talkshow where they invited an exhibitionist bodybuilder. They showed him walking around in a German city, pushing along his huge barbell. At various places he started to weightlift, all nude. Had a great body, so people started to take photos of him. Apparently he got arrested a few times for doing that

Would be nice if I could find a copy of this episode

 

[Jory]

In the US, you cannot use four-letter words around children, or talk about sex around them, or let them see nudity. Extreme, graphic violence is ok, but no sex or curse words. The children's impressionable young minds must be protected. Otherwise they will grow up to use four-letter words and enjoy sex.


And notice that the potential penalty for indecent exposure in this man's jurisdiction is up to a $2,000 fine and a year in jail.

And then Ten to one having to be register as a pedophile if convicted

 

[gsdx]

And nobody really seems concerned that the woman, apparently, was trespassing.

Compare the incident in this thread with the incident in the link below,
and the difference between the two becomes immediately clear:

Man Accused Of Indecent Exposure

I noticed that in some of the comments posted with the news article, people are defending this guy...
While he was in his own house, what he was doing was different from the coffee guy.

 

[NedNickerson]

There's an old joke about the little old lady who called the police saying that from her bathroom window she could see directly into the house next door and that the man who lived there frequently walked about naked. The cops come, look out her bathroom window and say they can't see anything.

The old lady says, "Well, if you put your left foot on the toilet and your right foot on the window sill, then look as far to the left as possible...."

=========================================

I found this in the comments section of one of the news articles online:

http://reason.com/blog/2009/10/21/man-arrested-for-being-naked-i

This guy lives down the street from me. The trail goes along the side of his house, where the kitchen window is. It's a path many kids take to the elementary school. There were some media outside the house today, which is how we found out about the story. It wasn't 530,it was 830. He's been kicked out of the house because this is the least of his issues.

To me this shows how stupid the world has become. What was she doing doing out with her child at 0530hrs? What's wrong with a hurried, protect the child, rush away, knowing it was someone elses house? If the shots in the video were any indication of the size of his windows, she must have been peeping. And frankly, are people not just becoming a little too precious?

 

[Edward Twinkletoes]

Is no one concerned that he could spill hot coffee on his weiner?

If you spilled coffee on your lap and you happened to be naked at the time, you'd probably be glad you were. Clothing only serves as a momentary barrier for hot liquid. Once it soaks into your clothes, it spreads out and burns the absolute piss out of you. And since you generally can't get your clothes off quickly, the burn is made even worse by the fact that the cloth is holding the close to boiling liquid in contact with your skin.

If it sounds like I know too much about this, it's because I burned myself (though my clothes) twice with my tea last month. If you spill hot water on your wiener, you'll have a bad day no matter what. I wouldn't want to be that person.

 

[mbamike]

This is total bullshit!

The problem is that people like this lady is warping kids minds that nudity is bad. This idea causes kids to be ashamed of their bodies and it creates poor self images.

I frequent a nudist camp that is "family oriented." I have seen everything from little babies, to teenages, to married couples, to grandparents. Everyone appears to be doing just fine!

I think the lady should be jailed for harming the child's mind!

 

[sexsomniac]

You're right, the prude did get what she deserved; the exhibitionist arrested.

Ya he sure was. Judging from the fact that he chose the busiest time in a day to show himself off, he is pretty smart guy too. Poor woman..she was invited over to see unsightly body of his.
