Talk:Public sex

message: Why is there no mention of socially acceptable public sex in other cultures throughout history, for example Tahiti?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Fatcud (talk • contribs) 18:13, 2 February 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Does anyone know of any books or sources for where public sex is now legal, or was legal throughout history?  Sex and nudity were certainly both much more accepted in some places and during some periods than they seem to be most places now days, even to the extent that they are treated worse than murder and violence by many.

message: None of the three images on the page at the time of writing depict public sex; two are outdoors but involve only two participants, while in the third, the couple seem to be at pains to hide from others. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 11:47, 6 March 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Er, what? "Only involve two participants"? It's public sex not group sex. And just because you have sex in public, it doesn't mean you want to be seen. It's either the thrill of the possibility of being seen (not something you necessarily want to happen), or you just don't have anywhere in private to have sex.

message: Dogging (sexual slang) is essentially covering the same topic. Unless there is some justification for having a separate article, I suggest that it is merged into this one. Delicious carbuncle (talk) 00:22, 14 September 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree, and I have already merged what I thought was relevant material into the public sex article. Enthusiast (talk) 07:58, 16 September 2013 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: There are repeated claims throughout of current phenomena, yet the citations offered are a decade or more old. For instance, for "dogging" has begun to spread to other countries, the newest ref is from 2008, so "begun" is a very poor word choice.
There is repeated confusion of "public nudity" and "public displays of affection" with "public sex" — this is at best reactionary nonsense. Nude or semi-clad demonstrators are not "engaging in sex" except as some body-shaming Puritan would claim.
There seem to be attempts to confuse "sex in a natural setting" with "sex in public." Then there's the intrusion upon (or by) others: does sex in a closed tent on a deserted campground count as "public sex?" how about a crowded campground?
Once these irrelevancies are cleared up, what remains might as well be rolled into Dogging (sexual slang) because it leaves only puerile prurience.Weeb Dingle (talk) 19:14, 27 January 2019 (UTC)
