'Indecent exposure laws only apply to men.'
By : Today we often see feminists protesting for the right for women to walk around topless. Surely this would imply that women do not have this right.
In Queensland, Australia a retired law professor, Dr Craig Burgess, confirmed what had long been suspected: Indecent exposure laws only apply to men. Section 9 of the Summary Offences Act 2005 (Qld) makes it clear that a person must expose their genitals to commit this offence. Queensland courts have always considered men’s genitals to be exposed merely by the man standing naked in public (or in a place that can be seen by the public) while women’s are considered to be covered.
