Do you believe masturbation in public should be banned and the ones who do that must go to jail?

Is masturbation an action so so bad that indeed needs to be punished or is not that really terrible for a person to go to jail for that?

In the country I live, like 2 months ago the Governmetn made a new law where street sexual harrassment mostly towards women and cat calling passed and it it is now punisahble and the person who do it goes to jail for some months, is fined or like several years in jail or so depending on the type of harrrasment committed. This law punishes different types of sexual harrassments and one of them is masturbation.

So last week where I live a guy will have to go to jail for like 6 months because he was masterbating in a public space, a park and a lady saw that guy doing that and she accused the guy of doing that, cause she felt offended by that act. So woth this new law, now the guy will go to jail for some months.

  • I think it should be banned in public, like all indiscent nudity. Many people aren't comfortable around others that are doing something overly sexual or showing too much. The biggest concern though is that a kid will see something that is too mature for them. I understand that some people think that sex and nudity are fine for kids, but many don't; therefore, we have to think about the people that don't want something like that in public.
    Should they be jailed or put on a sexual preditor list? Depends on the situation. No, if it is the middle of the night and nobody is around, that should just be a fine, but if it is in a park or playground mid-day, then probably yes.
    What do you think?

  • I don't think catcalling should be a punishable offense. If I had a young child, I certainly would not want them to see some perv jerking off in the park. Why does that need to be done in public? Because it gives a thrill to the perv to be seen while wanking; their intent is to victimize unwilling participants. Send those sorry ass pervs to jail!

  • Masturbation in public is already banned/illegal, it's considered an act of public indecency. I think punishment might depend on the severity though.

  • Another Anon Girl who is actually a guy.

    • Im not a guy

    • Sure your not that's why your the only "Women" who has ever try to say some views on the line that people getting arrested for sexual harassment from guy is a bad thing.

    • Im just saying what is happening where I live and how the law is. and im not a man

  • Id say that there is a time and a place for everyrhing. A reasonable person knows to not jerk off across the street from an elementary school.

  • Yes masturbation should be considered as the same case of Sex Offenders charges instead of just a slap on the wrist, as 6 months in jail

  • If it isn't already banned, yeah it should be. That said, it shouldn't be so strict as to just send someone to jail. That's silly. Maybe after enough repeat offenses, but just fine them. Tell them to knock it off. If they keep doing it, fine them, and if they still won't stop, give them a little bit of jail time or give them some hours with a shrink or sweeping the streets of trash or something.

  • I think it should be mandatory

  • in front of kid? yes

    • In front of women?

    • punished, at least fined

  • We should put rapists and murderers in prison not someone who masturbated in public

  • It already is , it comes under public desency. In masturbating it actually a gross indesenscey. Which can carry a fine or imprisonment...

  • I think if you want to wank outside you should do it where you won't be seen otherwise I don't see a problem with it. I have masturbated in all kinds of public places and I have only been seen a couple of times by accident. I actually get turned on by the thought that I might be seen not actually being seen if you see my point.

  • It's gross, sure, but it's not actively hurting anyone. A fine, a night out two in jail, or maybe community service, would be better alternatives to lengthy prison time.

  • Depends where u r in public my significant other likes to keep me naked as much as possible so even sometimes when were in the car together she has me ride why she drives naked

    So i dunno

  • That’s taking all the fun away.
    I’ve seen women masturbating on a park bench with their coat in their lap.
    Should I report her?

  • Just he careful stay away from kids and mothers

  • Why would you be masturbating in public anyway? 0. o you have a house to do that in

  • It's disrespectful act. It should be considered a small offense. Jail is too much in my opinion.

  • I get offended by seeing tittys of women. Women should wear burkas shouldn't show no more than ankle.

    Is free with the masterbation thing tho give them a year in jail

  • O yeah for sure.

  • I think you should prepare for men being too scared to even talk to women. And then women will start wondering why guys aren't talking to them

    • Indeed about your point. Now evertythign a man does or say that had any kind of sexual connotation or some sexual innuendos can be used agaisnt them by the woman.

    • I think the only thing a guy should possibly go to jail for is the public masturbation but even then I'm not sure that's proper. If it were Sweden he'd probably get therapy and community service which seems more appropriate to me
