So remember the #flashback tag I talked about a while ago?

I’ve already posted a few guest submissions with that; they seemed to fit. But I hadn’t done any flashback captions myself until now. More to come in the next few days. The idea is that these captions take place during the early days of permanent nudity (generally the early to mid 2000s, for anyone keeping track of the timeline), when it was still new and shocking. Some of the established rules might not exist yet either, for instance maybe some places didn’t have the cold weather exception yet, and it was really hard on permanudes for the first winter or two. That kind of thing. I think this will be a fun variation on the usual captions.

Feel free to get in on the act. Just put “flashback” in the notes if you want to submit one.

Another discussion post, inspired by this last picture. One thing I’ve never really explored, or honestly thought about too much, is the question of who exactly is in favor of permanent nudity. No doubt it would be a political issue in this world. It’s pretty easy to imagine who’d be against it, religious conservatives would not be pleased I expect. Although since nude punishments and voluntary registration are kind of a package deal, perhaps some could get on board with it for that reason. And conversely, I can imagine some on the left are probably critical of the involuntary aspect  from a “social justice” perspective, even though it seems pretty clearly preferable to prison.

But who exactly is in favor of it? Just naturists? Hard to imagine them having enough political clout. General libertarian types? “If people wanna be naked, that’s cool. Doesn’t hurt anyone.” I mean if this were real I’d probably support it mostly for that reason. But that still seems a little weak.

A related question is what the official stance is. Like does the government actively encourage permanent nudity? If so, why? I kind of imagine they’d be fairly neutral. Their interest in nude punishments is clear, it’s a cheaper alternative to prison, but if anything voluntary nudity undercuts that somewhat.

I’m curious if any of you have thought about these things, and if so, how you imagine this all playing out.
