Save me from all the self-righteous do-gooders of the world. Without knowing any of the young women working as baristas, they are labeled “sluts” and “sleazes” by those wishing to be spared the vision of any part of the human body. I don’t know any of the young ladies, either, but imagine them to be working hard to save for college, support a child, or just to earn a living like the rest of us.
Should the do-righteous truly wish to spare their children’s innocent minds (read sarcasm here) then surely the do-gooders will refrain from taking themselves and their families to museums, art gallaries, public bathing areas, most movies and get rid of their televisions. And, please don’t plan on world travel — Italy and the rest of Europe is filled with anatomically correct statues of men and women.
I really wonder at the mental health of those who immediately see anything they don’t like as “evil” and something the “government” should do something about. If they don’t want to return a happy wave of the hand or buy a cup of coffee at a particular stand — then don’t. Go to Starbucks, where the baristas are always fully clothed, but be prepared to bring your own cup unless, heaven forbid, you get one of their mermaids!
