well I take it you arent the type for appreciating natural body art
We were all born butt naked at least guys can flaunt their skin..... I wish I could but I'd probably get arrested.

I guess it has something to do with the tribal instinct:
"Man make fire! Man cook meat! Man warrior!"
or some such
I agree tho, its not pretty
Not a spinner!

beg to disagree, i think it looks nice
tis true, there's a higher risk of small burns but it also avoids setting clothes on fire that could lead to some really nasty accidents...
wear 100% cotton everybody!

It's not really appropriate for Ireland, tis true
But when it's very hot outside... I don't think it matters actually...
Do you object to seeing women running around doing poi in bikinis?

hehehe problem is with bikinis that there arent very many that are natural fibres therefoe flamable boobies are more likely
I would understand such objections if said topless spinner had biatch tits and a gut to match

Get a crochet bikini top
Or make one from prettily coloured natural-fibre thread

That's a bit of a harsh request! If people want to take their tops off to spin, then leave em to it. You're not being forced to look, a la A Clockwork Orange.
Sure, you might get a few skinny bods that aren't model material, but can you imagine the uproar if someone started a thread requesting all women above a certain weight stay away from the beach and please, for the love of allah, don burquas? It would be an outrage.
Besides, if all boys decided to cover up, I would miss such delights as Doc and Arashi and countless other yummy boys flexing their muscles. And that would make me sad. No one wants that.

what a strange request! why would you want people to cover up while spinning, unless you already want them to cover up the rest of the time too....that sounds like a bad idea to me!
maybe i'm just a perv, but i rather like the human body, even if it is a bit skinny & white

you find it offensive to see a mans nipples?
where do you live man- in a jane austin novel or something?
you'd better avoid australia & our beaches then - youll probably get so offended that your eyes will explode.

okok, what about if I wear a hat?
there was a young man from beude,
who swam at the beach in the nude.
when they said "Dirty rat!"
He just put on his hat,
and said "now im not nearly so rude!"
common man,really? maybe its time you admitted a few things to yourself, why exactly does seeing another man nekid disturb you?

I don't really have a problem with guys who spin without shirts on. Although you have to admit that there is a certain element out there who will take any excuse to get their gear off. I saw a guy at the ATM on the way into work stripping off his shirt and checking out his chest in the reflection of the little glass panel. I mean, really!!
At least it left me laughing all the way to work. It was a day for screaming at inanimate objects.
What this calls for is a special mix of psychology and extreme violence...

Soot is decidedly easier to get off me than my T-shirt. And my trousers
Looking at that again it looks like I'm saying It's not easy to get me to undress, which definately isn't the case.
