A Man Going Shirtless is Considered Half Naked (at least, to my friends)?

I was out with some of my (girl) friends & they were so appalled at the "half naked (shirtless) man" running at the park. They made such a big deal out of it. I thought the whole thing was funny. I probably wouldn't have even noticed him if they didn't make such a big deal about it.

  • I'm male and I freaking HATE men going topless in public places that aren't the beach or pool. It's such epic douchebaggery. I used to be a security officer and would ban dudes from entering the building without a shirt in the summer, even though no one knew if that was an actual rule or not. If you're going to have your nasty hair, sweat, and B. O all over the place, then you don't deserve the same courtesy as everyone else. It annoys me almost as much as the douchebags who don't wash their hands after using the restroom (prior to COVID). I bet you money the same filthy, unsanitary, shirtless-in-public douchebags are the same filthy, unsanitary "it's just my cock; why do I need to wash my hands" douchebags. And ALSO the same "if it's yellow, let it mellow, if its brown, flush it down" douchebags. F*ck, it; they're all the same asshole.

    • You’ve never gone for a jog shirtless on a hot and sunny day?

    • @Not_Average That's f*ckin' gross. No, I'm not going to go out half-naked and shake my sweat and body hair all over everything in sight. You can jog in a tank top.

    • Ahaha alright

  • Cookie a guy running shirtless with just shorts and shoes is probably more than half naked if you consider what proportion of his body is covered. But whatever, it shouldn't be seen as scandalous. In the summer I jog shirtless in the park and I'm not doing that for attention or to be exhibitionist. It's just more comfortable. Wherever you are must still be warm this time of year.

    • Thank you Cookie for MHG opinion! 🙋‍♂️😊

    • You're welcome.

  • I mean technically yea. But a mans chest is not a womans breasts so people see it as different. Its all just skin tho. Nothing sexual about skin

    • Women's boobs are private sexual parts! Totslly different than a man's chest...

    • Boobs are meant to feed babies. That's not sexual

    • To feed babies yeah BUT ARE SEXUAL FOR MEN... Your boobs doesn't have only one use and you know it well...

  • Not when it's a man, we know damn well we don't see men's tits the same way we see women.

    • I do, shirtless men arouse me

  • Since naked means without any covering at all, what is half naked really? If a guy is wearing shoes and socks, gloves, a hat, maybe a belt and leggings, is that half naked?
    Anyway, to me half naked would mean showing about half of one's sexual being openly. Since you would probably not have noticed him except for your friends' comments, you must not find him to be half naked. So i find it interesting that you found the opinion that was really ranting about something so trivial as a male jogger outside not wearing a shirt to be most helpful.

  • Technically it is

  • Yes, it's half-naked.
    However, it's very much accepted.

  • It is a thing, if girls have to cover their body then guys should cover theirs although at the beach it might oddly be more acceptable there 🤔

  • Well, technically he is, but it's not a big deal you're right lol

  • He is half naked but I don't understand why they made such a big deal out of it 😂

  • Weird friends. Appalled? What drama queens. Men run shirtless all the time in summer. Some even in winter here in Scandinavia. Maybe his sports shirt was in the laundry, or running shirtless being more comfortable (it really is) it's just his preference.
    Or he just wanted to show off if he was fit.

    Do we not see women all the time jogging in tight, bouncy tops and nothing else? Besides leggings of course.

    • "Do we not see women all the time jogging in tight, bouncy tops and nothing else? Besides leggings of course." I know this might seem shocking to you, but wearing clothes isn't the same as not wearing clothes

    • @mistixs Someone's touchy on this I see. It's about the sexual nature of the clothing or lack thereof which amounts to the very same thing for a man to run shirtless or a woman to be running in tops that very transparently flatters her shapely forms. Of course women cannot run outside topless as breasts are on equal levels of sexuality as genitals. But as I said, I was speaking in terms of principle and not in a literal sense.

  • I got man boobs and go out to bring the garbage cans down to the house when It's warm outside it's some site in half but heck I don't see me being half naked course I could be wrong? Lol

  • Your friends sound extremely sensitive lol. Appalled? My god. I run shirtless all the time. Can get a tan and some exercise.

  • well if thats how it is then go to the beach there's half naked men everywhere

  • unleash your friends are amish conservatives, no it is not half naked, guys go shirtless all the time,

  • Yes in theory he is half naked but what is all the fuss about. Where I live it is legal for women to go topless. Most don't though.

    • Maybe they don't because it is too cold there. lol

    • @Red_Arrow If you come in the summer you would have a different story to tell. June through August have highs into the mid to high 90s.

    • Really? I am surprised that far north.

  • Well it's not distracting si men can afford it lol if a women runs like that in a park with her boobs flipty flopping men would enjoy it but not women herself either she will be insecure or questioning everything..

  • Men are allowed to be half naked though 🤷

  • it's half naked and it is sickening behaviour

  • Technically yeah but we don’t pay attention to it

  • I just answered a question from a guy who said girls are exhibitionists because they wear bikinis. I mean wtf? These people need to get over the human body. There is nothing wrong with nudity. Even God has no problem with it. Damn.

  • These same females were likely wearing tights as pants or something way to exposing.

    • I know this might seem shocking to you, but wearing clothes isn't the same as not wearing clothes

    • @mistixs Wearing the clothes that women wear... is the same as not wearing clothes. I see more vagina and ass in public than I ever do male genitals.

  • How funny 🤣🤣 lucky it wast a girl jogging in a see through top

  • A Guy going Shirtless is Normal like a Girl in a Crop Top or Sports Bra. I don't believe in a Outdoor Facility that would Ban Guys going Shirtless but Accept Girls wearing Crop Tops, Bikini Tops, Sports Bras, Etc. That's Sex Discrimination 🤨
