It's kind of hard not to look. That makes no sense. It's in front of us. We see it. I dont appreciate having to see your bare ***. Just like I dont appreciate seeing your underwear (for those who like to wear their pants half way down their legs). Mind you, Ive never seen anyone wearing their pants down their legs at disney but I have seen it elsewhere and Im just trying to make a point. It's not like a show on tv that if I dont like I can switch the channel. It's in front of me, where I am. Inappropriate is inappropriate whether you like it or not. With your logic then I should be able to just walk into a park naked and if you dont like then look away! Really??! give me a break!
What you think is inappropriate by your standards or culture, may or not be by my standards, and it really is wrong to be so judgmental. If someone wears a thong, or I see their underwear, which I have only seen in America, or if someone wants to go topless, it really isn't a big deal. We were on the beach in Egypt when DS was 9, and he came up to me and whispered that a woman was bathing topless, I explained to him, while I don't do it, there were many woman around the world that did. He understood that was THEIR culture, he said, "oh, ok." and went on playing. It is my job as a parent to teach him to tolerate, understand and care about the people and the world he lives in. There are worse things that are happening in the world that bother me a lot than if I see thong or someone topless.
I also might have a bit of a different perspective. We are lucky enough to be living in another country that in not our home country. You become very humble when you don't understand the language, have to try to communicate, find food at the grocery store, and then be able to find your way home from the store. Now almost two years of living here, I don't worry when someone asks me a question and it is not in English. We have traveled throughout Europe, Asia, and Africa, and find that people are people and want to share their lives and culture with you. I have learned so much in these two years, and DS, well I could write a book about how much he has grown and matured over the last two years. We are also lucky that we live in a very International community. We have friends from all over the world now, and can't imagine my life if we hadn't moved here. When we have a get together, woman from around the world bring what is part of there culture. Imagine you are sitting at a table eating sushi made by a Japanese woman, Italian cookies by an Italian, curry from an Indian woman, and buffalo chicken dip by an American woman, but in the end we figure out we are all in the same boat, mom's with kids, living in another culture, sharing a meal and some laughs talking about our families and kids.
