Gimp in the crowd is much ado about nothing, says Globe theatre
A man in a latex outfit was allowed to roam the venue while children were present
That gimp suits are used sexually is one thing. But they also cover all the bits of a body that needs to be covered in public and with kiddies around. So, why wouldn’t we allow someone to wear a gimp suit in public?
In and of themselves they’re no more sexual that a wetsuit. And while the idea of being able to prosecute surfers for being indecent in public has it’s attractions it would be going that bit too far.
From the picture in the Telegraph, I’d agree that he looks much less objectionable than a bloke in a skirt.
Lycra louts first, please!

Do I look like a bitch?
It’s letting people wander around wearing masks in public that’s the scary bit surely?

If gimps are ok why not welcome playful pups as well? After all we’ve seen plenty of photos of them with young children at recent parades.
just a thought from someone who has done enough small boat sailing, neoprene rubber suits are NOT the same as latex. They are typically 3 or 5 mm thick (sometimes 7mm, why odd thicknesses I don’t know) depending on the insulation required, and for a lot of uses have additional thickness/patches over hard wearing areas like knees. As such, wetsuits are almost but not quite completely without sex appeal. Useful as they come if your hobbies take you into non-tropical waters.

Preposterous lolz. That’s like saying a dildo is no more sexual than a TV remote.
Jeans and a T-shirt cover “ all the bits of a body that needs to be covered in public ”. That the freak chose to wear a gimp suit is, I suggest, for entirely different reasons.
You should see what I can do with a TV remote.
@Ed Snack – “wetsuits are almost but not quite completely without sex appeal”
What a naive view. Try a search for “wetsuit porn” and count the hits. There’s porn about nearly everything.
