This argument has always seemed logically sound to me, and since I hate masks that tends to irk me. As a result I've spent some time thinking about this.
-
Clothes, unlike masks, are not physically dangerous. Masks are proven to cause illness and even death in some cases.
-
In Western Civilization we protect childrens innocence by covering our private areas.
Frankly, that's the best I've got. I find the other arguments that come to mind somewhat weak.
What say you, should clothes be mandatory in public, and why? How is forcing mandatory clothes different than mandatory masks?
Right - so why should the government have the right to force ANY clothes on you - underwear included? Where does it say in the constitution that clothing is required? Or that 'Christian values' should be upheld?
