There is a significant difference between being photographed in public in a state where you are less than fully clothed and texing a picture of yourself in some stage of undress to a married co-worker as her superior.
Tell you what. Take your shirt off, take a pic, and email it to all your female co-workers. What do you suppose would be the result of that?
I was specifically making a counterpoint to Jamie B, not to the OP. And, I think it still stands to support my original assertion, that male upper body nakedness is classified by our society as completely benign. What's the rating of a film that shows a topless man? G, no?
Now, context does matter, and it still may have been inappropriate. My last post was not addressing that, just challenging the assertion that because some politicians were involved in sex scandals that involved topless male pictures, topless male pictures are themselves inherently scandalous. The best way to counter such an argument is to show that male politicians are photographed topless
all the time, and yet, this is completely socially acceptable.
