Oh - well what about the woman who was cautioned for breastfeeding on a park bench then?
Or the woman who was told she cannot breast feed in a restaurant or cafe?
Or ist it ONE rule for arrogant twats on bikes und another for everyone else.
Why do people pander to this arrogant minority of thugs on bikes?
By the way... I did manage to discreetly feed my youngest whilst in one of the "Lucy" places here. But ist "art form" und practical dressing style which mean I could do so without drawing attention to this... und Mad Doc und older kittens did make a "screen" too. Other than that - I was expected to feed the youngest in the loo.
But if a woman using her breasts for way they intended ist threatened with fine und arrest - then why the hell were these people allowed to ride indecently exposing themselves to other people.
People have right not to be subjected to this when shopping in town when all ist said und done. Mother feeding child on booby .. breast ist not really on show as baby's head ist in way und to all intents und purposes a casual glance when I was feeding Rachael looked like I was cradling und rocking her in my arms.

and many cannot help stripping off all their clothes when they are too hot and running around naked (like my niece used to do).
I allow them to run around und skinny dip in pool at home. Mad Doc bought me this pool as I like to swim ... but am very self conscious still about those scars which run from left shoulder to groin. Und also water exercises helped my recovery as the water provide sort of "cushion" und support.
I do not allow the kittens to strip to nuddy at Fell Foot .or beach. the boys wear trunks und a lot of sun block und my youngest has frilliest pair of panties und a lot of sun block. Holidays in Italy und France.. we do not ever see children on beach without stylish costumes.

Victorian prudity and its associated legal relics needs to fade into history - it is not traditional human culture as there are many cases from history where full nudity was accepted - such as the ancient Olympic Games,
We are not in Ancient Greece or Ancient Rome.
People did not sunbathe either. This phenomenum occur when the Victorians discovered STEAM power und trips to seaside. Und they designed some swimwear.

and for the vast majority of the population going for a swim meant wearing nothing until the 20th century as they couldn't afford swimming costumes.
I think you may find that they did not have baths und clothing was usually stitched on und never removed -per the V&A museum und a couple of others.
I think yu may also find that wealthier households did have an outfit which they reserved for swimming. But I think you may find majority did not swim as they did not have swimming pools und lakes, rivers und seas were for fishing und sailing. Swimming was not a pastime und perhaps something they did to get from one side of a river to another.

I'm not saying that we should all run around naked all the time, but the occasionally bit of nudity should be accepted without question.
But this was nudity in the middle of an afternoon in a busy town centre where people were shopping und going about their business.
This was not frolicking with a bucket und spade on a beach in innocent play under watchful eye of parents. Nor was this something on the telly which can be switched off.
This was blatant indecent exposure to people und a disruption to the town centre as well - since it held up traffic und buses too. (Picadilly Gardens ist a bus station apparently)
Ist typical of the selfish arrogant louts .. und only 30 took part.. not all in nude. So I do not think it got that much support in reality. Was a sick stunt!
