If you have male genitalia, at least wear a kynodesmē (NSFW educational link) to stop your junk from flapping.
I did not expect the, ahem, instructional images under the “purpose” heading 😅
oh, sorry, I just added a warning.
Haha, no worries! Just caught me off guard
Looks like a trussed up chicken
I can’t help but think some guy’s realizing his weird fetish by showing his junk to unsuspecting people on the internet in the name of history education. The visualization is definetely helpful, as otherwise I wouldn’t be able to imagine this, but maybe a drawn image would have been more fitting.
I... Don't know why I went back, but I had to see it for myself. That was... Interesting
Modesty and decency demanded that men who showed themselves naked in a public setting, such as athletes or actors, must conceal their glans.
Naturally.
New word learned
Wh... Why... Why not just wear pants? I know it was ancient times, but didn't they have something? Briefs, a diaper? Anything seems better than stripping your dick to your neck.
Now we have elastics and stretchy fabric. I guess it was more difficult to have a firm and comfortable hold with loose fabric.
I mean they have a string right there. Just loop that around over your hips to keep them up
Nah bro it’s better to lynch your dick for several hours while doing intense athletics. Trust me bro.
They were naked when practicing athletics. I don't know if it was a cultural thing or an actual lack of good options for sportswear, but I'll bet you can find out with 5 minutes of searching online. My bet is it was just a cultural thing.
I mean can you imagine sweating into the same clothes you then need to wear to the Spartan assembly?
I guess, when you have to make all your own clothes from scratch by hand, the advantage becomes apparent. People without armor also fought naked in battles. Understandable if you need to handwash and mend your clothes.
foreskin is clothes i guess
I'm a koteka guy, myself
This reminds me of a time when I was drunk, and said to my mate "Hey, wanna go run naked on the streets?" and he said "obviously". So we were running naked in the middle of the night back and forward along the street, and another mate looks out the window, shakes his head and says "you idiots, without me?". And he also stripped naked, jumped out of the window and joined us. Good times.
Honestly with how much I sweat while running I wish I could run naked somewhere
So, running. Got it.
What? Tech? Who cares. Why do we do this to ourselves ? Just get out and do something. Don’t over think it. Don’t make it worse with pointless guilt trips that really don’t add anything to the end goal. Wear a watch, or don’t… and I don’t care if you double back to get one just cuz you want or need it. That shouldn’t be the thing here. You do it the way you need to.
just so long as you’re getting outside and looking after yourself. That’s the goal here.
I had a similar problem with a cafe bar doing a "Bottomless Brunch".
Anyway, it turns out it's some weird, trendy new phrase for "all-you-can-eat" or "buffet".
It is not in any way along the same lines as a "Topless Beach".
I thought bottemless brunch was a socially acceptable way to get shitfaced before noon on free drinks.
I played naked frisbee on the front lawn of my college once. I thought it would be effortless but in fact it's extremely painful to have your nuts bouncing around unsupported like that. But I kept at it until the Dean of Students came up to me and asked me to put my clothes back on because it was prospective weekend and there were a bunch of high school students with their parents standing off to one side. I thought I was accurately representing what the college was all about but he thought otherwise.
I felt bad years later when I found out the Dean's brother had been murdered in Mississippi during the civil rights era (they even made a Hollywood movie about this incident). He must have felt great knowing his brother had been killed fighting for black people, and he was busy making stupid white boys put their pants back on.
We make sacrifices so other people don't have to. I'm sure his brother would not have minded that he has a high paying job and that he can tell stupid white boys to stop making fools of themselves.
Hope this guy hasn't been rawdogging his flights.
All top results on DuckDuckGo for naked running are about the literal meaning of it. Is it actually used as a term for tech-free (but clothed) running? Press X to doubt.
I'd call it "rawdog running" if anything, but that doesn't sound right either.
I'd say it's more like unplugged running…wait a minute…
Running without music is so boring. I get tired quicker.
I always run without music! I love the mindfulness of just being aware of my surroundings!
I guess this would very much depend on where you run, though. I would never run on a treadmill without music or a podcast, and running next to traffic would probably also be bad without listening to something.
I mean obviously it means those things. Where would you keep them while naked?
I always keep music in my ass. Not technology, just the music.
A real prison wallet
That's where I keep my binoculars!
So... running
Retronym.
A new name for something that has changed because of technology. Acoustic guitars and prop planes are examples. Silent movie, black and white movie, antenna televison, etc, etc.
They say it's not what you know, it's how soon you know it.
Im old enough to remember when "naked running" meant Streaking. There was even a hit song about it back in the 70s.
They do a naked run every semester at Berkeley the week before finals. Its called dead week, where there's no classes, and its a time for students to cram for their exams, or, you know, run naked around campus.
That's just how we did it before mp3 players
I remember portable cassette players and some mad people running with those.
I've never run with music. It appears to me, to be a pretty dangerous activity in an urban environment. I've had a few near misses 'naked'. Music while running has never really interested me anyway. I'm 55 so maybe that's why...
Back in my day we just called this "running"
Gotta raw dog your run or you're cooked. Dead ass.
I hate the current slang trends.
