They won't recoil in horror. Of course not.

It's just not cool to be whipping your dick out on anyone who hasn't given their consent to wanting to see it (or do anything else with it). If you need that explained to you and you still don't get it, you're probably a sexual predator.
I didn't say it was hilarious. I said it could be humorous. It isn't black and white, why make it so? Why must we label everything good, bad, acceptable, unacceptable, cool, uncool, why act unintelligent by drawing conclusions on everything we survey, even when we're short on facts and a long way from knowing the reality of it?

As for the bit I highlighted in bold, so I've now gone from someone morally bankrupt to a sexual predator myself? That's classic!

I'll tell you what, tie a carrot to my nose, fling a cloak around my shoulders, stick a pointy hat on my head, throw in a broomstick and a black cat and you can burn me on the stake like a witch. How does that sound? This is turning into a witch hunt after all.

Most human beings are opposed to strange men exposing themselves to, well anyone really but ESPECIALLY minors (minors means someone that cannot legally live on their own and must live under the supervision of an adult parent or guardian). Even worse is attempting to lure this minor into a home or vehicle or anywhere that would offer the offending predatory adult the privacy they need to violate said minor. This is why in just about ANY civilization in the world, there are felony laws against such behavior. I realize this is difficult to grasp in the world of how-can-we-possibly-know-a-naked-man-attempting-to-lure-a-minor-is-a-sexual-predator, but try to get your head wrapped around that. It's what almost everyone else feels.

Additionally, DC is someone that, in addition to being a minor, is someone who almost everyone here thinks highly of, so when she told her story that, aside from describing a pair of bunny ears (which gives me the idea that bank robbers should stop wearing ski masks and start sporting bunny ears, then all the bank tellers will go "aww isn't that cute" when the robber shoves the barrel of a gun into their face, and all will be forgiven when the robbers speed off with their haul because, well, lookit the bunny ears), told us that she was now scared to walk home from school, you fecking LAUGHED. And those of us that like DC (again almost everyone here) would tend to be offended at that kind of callousness to our friend's scary experience. I'm sure it's difficult to comprehend the concept of caring about someone, but again try.

In addition to all that, while few in this board have kids of their own (most are too young), any parent that learned of the type of lewd conduct with their own minor children would be FURIOUS upon hearing of it. I don't have kids of my own but I have two nephews, a niece, and my GF has two young children and a young adult daughter who was this age just a few short years ago. I would have to calm myself down from finding the guy and physically ripping him limb from limb for something like that. At a minimum I would do everything in my power to prevent the offending adult from doing it to anyone else's kids.

And ANYONE that thinks it's EVER possibly acceptable to expose themselves to kids in any way shape or form....well I just couldn't be more disgusted.
I'm sorry I'm not repulsed by the thought of a penis. I'm sorry the thought of someone naked sayin' come get some lovin' doesn't lead to mental images of sexual abuse and rape. I'm sorry I can imagine how the scenario painted in the original story could unfold in a thousand different ways, some dark, some not dark. I'm sorry I don't think like you do. I'm sorry I'm not disgusted. What can I say. Sorry again? This is like an episode of the twilight zone where everyone has gone very, very mad.

I wanna laugh again but I don't wanna cause any more offence or draw any more attention but, dear lord, it's insane. And it's funny.

My opinion is insignificant!
