I live near Munich. Yes, Germans are pretty relaxed about nudity. Even I thought I was relaxed about it, often sunning topless (female, soon 30). But recently a law was passed stating that you only need to cover your primary sex organs, eg. in public places like streets, lakes, public pools, forests and so on. In other words, even females of ALL ages can walk around topless. Which I don’t mind for adults.

But.

Today I had the rather confusing experience of having four girls next to me at the lake, obviously minors but still pretty well endowed, and besides swimming and sitting in the sun they rode their bikes, played ball, hugged and kissed their boy friends and most people starred at them. Because they were topless.

Is it just me who has a problem to watch minors tits bouncing all around her in broad public?

Is that morally rotten or just very open?

Is that even a legal interpretation of the law?

PS, this topic got deleted on EVERY Reddit channel I asked for opinions.

    A general rule, if taking photos would break the law because of CP, then it is wrong for them to be without a top.

      Nudity isn’t by itself considered CP in a photo, it has to be sexualized. I have photos of my children naked in a bath when they were young because they wanted to show off their spiked hair and bubble beards. I don’t see anything wrong with that.

      Overall, I don’t think topless images or either gender should be considered pornography unless something specifically sexual is happening or being implied in the photo.
