International | LGBTI / QueerVENICE displays torsophobia
Italian city bans "torsonudismo". In contrast, Cologne cops merely warn bottomless shopper. In Italy, prudish Venice now forbids "torsonudismo",
which means going shirtless. Their municipal torsophobia is part of a "zero tolerance" campaign against "unseemly behavior". http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main.jhtml?xml=/news/2005/07/23/wvenice23.xml&sSheet=/news/2005/07/23/ixworld.html In SUN's opinion, the only "seemly" aspect of Venice's official behavior is that the city offers EQUAL repression for all, on a gender-neutral basis. Meanwhile, in comparatively progressive Germany, Cologne police merely warned a bottomless woman who went grocery-shopping at 4AM, wearing only an unbuttoned denim jacket. She explained that she had lost a "spin the bottle" contest. [ http://groups.yahoo.com/group/nakity/message/20 ] -- Senior Unlimited Nudes (SUN) of San Francisco ........ PS: Ethnology queery: If any readers know about German culture, please explain how "spin the bottle" is played there. In the USA, years ago, it was mainly a kissing game among children. In Europe, is it an adult drinking game ? Or a stunt game, like "Truth or Dare"? |
