Today I Learned
What did you learn today? Share it with us!
We learn something new every day. This is a community dedicated to informing each other and helping to spread knowledge.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must begin with TIL. Linking to a source of info is optional, but highly recommended as it helps to spark discussion.
** Posts must be about an actual fact that you have learned, but it doesn't matter if you learned it today. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.**
Rule 2- Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding non-TIL posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-TIL posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Idk, I feel like for some people it is and for some it isn't.
Like tbh I'd be worried about going to a nudist resort because (despite the trope that "only people you don't want to see go there") if I saw a woman I was attracted to I'd be worried that it would be...uh...evident, and that seems awkward and idk if it's like, allowed to become tumescent even if it is an uncontrollable biological response (never stopped anyone from being mad it happened before, so..)
Idk, if I saw a woman walking down the street tits akimbo, I'd definitely be more inclined to think "ayy hell yeah" in my head than not, even if it happened daily, I can't just stop being attracted to women, ya know?
Not that I think she shouldn't, it's her right and I wouldn't complain about seeing them, but I can't control my uncontrollable biological responses of "attraction" nor what happens naturally when "attracted," if you will (though outside of nudist resorts, it's hidable enough because clothes.)
You could bring a towel and casually hold it in front of the happy area. Maybe people will know what’s going on but they also know you’re trying. We’re all human.
Good to know, is that like, common etiquette in all of them? Not that I'm planning on going anytime soon anyway but I guess it's good to know just in case!
It’s not even mandatory to be nude, at least the ones I know in Germany. So you could get accustomed to it slowly. As long as you’re not staring, you’re fine.
In Sylt, a German Island, the nude and dog beaches are mixed.
Huh, good to know, I did indeed think those places were mandatory to be nude at like the resort type places. I know they specifically have "clothing optional beaches" (not in my country afaik, but still), and those I figured were optional as they say, but I may hold a misconception about the "nudist resorts" proper.
Glad the dogs can be nude on the beaches though! Lol :D
