I mean I get it but also would you want to wear a wet white T shirt and two piece while there’s a bunch of horny teens staring? And trust me the guys got rules too, I remember getting direct talks to the boys about behaving and not being weirdo creeps. I think girls just need a paper on the wall with rules, boys sometimes need a full lecture when they’re feeding off each other and there’s teen girls around
Edit: You people’s solution is so castrate young boys to kill their libido?
If teenage boys are ogling girls enough that we need to restrict normal beachwear, I’d suggest those “unwritten rules for guys” aren’t actually being enforced.
When I was a teenager girls could have been wearing a garbage bag and I'd still have looked. I also had enough consciousness to know that being weird about it made them uncomfortable so I restrained myself. Teach the boys how to act right. Girls dressing how they want isn't hurting anyone.
My comment literally said boys were getting lectures on how to act right
It also said this. Which is blaming the girls for the problem. They bear 0 responsibility and should not be expected to conform to standards designed to keep men from objectifying them.
The point is, girls are held responsible for the boy's behaviour. They are told that it's all their fault if they get assaulted or leered at because they aren't "modest" enough.
