I would agree fully. In fact, I believe that hiding innocent behavior makes children much more vulnerable to the very real theat of abuse. We have imposed a culture of body shame and secrecy, and children begin to feel if they might be blamed, for being hurt. We aren't allowed to be comfortable with ourselves.
Deceit is immoral, not the human body. Textile washing (read: textile version of white washing) is a rampant problem. We are humans, not outfits, not uniforms.
Society might become less hyper sexualized were we to stop hiding it away and deceiving ourselves of our inherent biology. Using blanket vagueries as "protect" children from sex implies that sex is inherently malign, harmful, etc negatives. Children wouldn't exist without the sex that conceived them, so by extension of alluding sex as negative, we condemn children to have an inherency of being just as malign.
The toxicity of the concept of inheriting original sin, anyone?
Without sex, we do not have bodies to be positive of.
The harm that is being enacted onto our youths by secreting away sex and the human body is immense, resulting in body negativity and, due to sexual suppression, hyper sexualization.
Make no mistake, I'm not condoning pedos. I'm a survivor from childhood sa, so.
I'm saying if young adults' emerging sexuality is unaccepted by society, stigmatized, where if they engage in sexual activity it is in secret or in rebellion, this endangers them, to disease, to pedos, to dangerous sexual experimentation (like having an object stuck in an oriface, or otherwise damage genitalia) especially when combined with our nationally defunct sex education. We can scare them all we want, make sex into a Boogeyman, but in the end it's in their very cells, and running from it is futile and counterproductive to safety. Teaching safe methods of managing ones own sexual experience is paramount, and ensuring that everyone can feel comfortable to talk about it is necessary for healthy society.
...But instead we live in a scary world of textile authoritarianism, sexual stigmata, and body negativity....
Also I find it outrageous how LAZY/halfwitted/hypocritical the government is. If they are going to require digital age documentation, then they should provide it, free of charge (implemented using the taxes that fund the gov) and anyone who is a citizen should just automatically be sent their digital documentation. They should also provide the age verification tech, freely.
Instead, their policies remain perpetually half assed to the detriment of all
Not that I agree with requiring documentation to use the web. It violates freedom of speech, in an era where the Internet is the main method of communication.
Back in the 1940's and 50's the Nudist magazines were up high on the magazine racks out of reach as Playboy and Penthouse when they appeared. I had to be content with Sears lingerie pages or better yet anatomy texts in the public library for detail. Then there was the hired man's wall for all the Centerfolds, alas no genitalia back then!
Eventually the porn magazines were sealed in plastic, naturist on and off? I didn't pay much attention anymore as a married adult getting naked in public anyway.
I personally got as much education as I wanted/had time for, fine line though over excess obsession for some.
