What sparked the debate about flashing and indecent exposure on the ARIA Awards?
I don't think it's okay to flash genitals at anyone who's not asking for genitals to be flashed at them. Um, including streaking at at sporting matches again, although culturally acceptable. Um people aren't asking to see it. So I I think streaking sits in a in a in an area where we kind of accept it, but ultimately there are people not consenting to see that guy's bits flapping in the wind.
The hookup Love and
honey all.
On Triple J.
Warning. Sex and adult themes. Hey Hannah Riley here. Thanks for listening to the Hook Up Podcast. Musician Kieran J. Callanan flashed his penis on the Arya's red carpet this week, and as you'd imagine, in the current social climate, people were pierced. And kind of fairly so, it is indecent exposure and therefore a crime, but it shouldn't really come as a surprise for anyone who knows him. On his latest album cover, he's piercing into his own face. It's not even the first penis of the aria's. Axel Whitehead whipped out his pain on the stage in 2006 and got fired from his job. But the latest backlash has made us wonder about the nature of flashing and indecent exposure, and what constitutes okay and not okay nudity in 2017.
Soon you'll hear from Dr. Christopher Fox, a sex therapist and lecturer at the University of Sydney, on why people decide to expose themselves. And when it's okay, or definitely not. Plus, you'll hear from two women who have differing views on the free the nipple movement. Is it advancing equality for the sexes, or is it just giving dirty pervs what they've always wanted? Titties. But first, I spoke to a guy called Pepper, who streaked at a community AFL game, where despite it being illegal, streaking is pretty much expected on the day. So is it indeed? Decent exposure, a bit of a laugh, or both.
Well someone had already streaked before me, which was a bit disappointing 'cause I was like nervous and And like hesitating and then they jumped on and I was like, Oh, that's the end of that. But then the announcer was like, Oh, is anyone else gonna streak? And I was like, Oh, that's that's a pretty good reason too. And also my friend was offering me fifty dollars, which was the real the real reason why I did it.
And what did it feel like while you were running across the field naked?
It felt really, really good. It was like kinda like telling s like everyone all your secrets and having them all out there and not having to worry about them anymore, you know? Yeah, just being naked and running across the field.
What was the feedback from you streaking did you offend anyone?
I I didn't really go around interview each person. I only really talked to my friends afterwards and they absolutely loved it. But do you think that's 'cause they know you? Exactly, yeah, they've probably already seen my dick a couple of times and and we're all pretty easygoing people. But yeah, potentially there were some people. I I don't know. I mean the the general consensus that everyone was like hooting and hollering. I don't know, it's just a super grey area, so like some people are gonna enjoy it and and maybe some people aren't. Like some people probably didn't wanna see a penis that they they did. And that's definitely something to consider but for the same reason I'm not gonna not do it for that reason.
You know it.
How does Dr Christopher Fox define consent and context for public nudity?
I'm gonna everyone's a little bit selfish and so am I. So I'd rather offend a few people and have a really good time than make absolutely sure that I don't offend anyone and and and And constantly like having to hold myself back.
The hookup on Triple J.
Joining us to talk about what makes an unacceptable form of public nudity is Dr. Christopher Fox. He's a senior lecturer in sexual health at the University of Sydney. Chris, thanks for coming on the hookup.
Thank you, Hannah. How are you?
Yeah, really well. Um, so what do you think the difference is between okay versus not okay public nudity?
Um, I think context is really important, um and also the consent around the issue of nudity. Um so for example in in Australia we have um close optional beaches where nudity's okay.
