Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Let's try that defense for public nudity. People can just choose to not look at it if they don't like it!
You are agreeing? Tone on the internet is lost to me.
The post you replied to is saying that ads can't "just not be looked at".
Same with nudity. You can't just not look at it. You didn't even know it was there.
That's the point.
They were making the point that public nudity is illegal even though you can just look away if you don't agree
But advertising in public spaces is legal on the basis that you could just look away if you didn't want to see it
Oh ok. I can see that perspective now. Thanks for explaining it to me.
Edit: and upon re-reading the comment several times, I can see that exactly.
Without tone the same sentence can go anywhere.
