“I’m doing it to show the world my body isn’t theirs to force into a size or shape, to decide what happens to my ovaries, or how high my tits should rest. I’m doing it for my fucking self.”

why does her body autonomy require other people's participation?

Buzzfeed Reporter

Top journalistic integrity right there.

She also got offended that men didn't buy her drinks.

I speak as someone who has done the whole nude beach thing, and consider myself someone who prefers the nude beach experience.

She brings up several points, even though her writing is fully catered to the trashness that is Buzzfeed. I'll address them one by one.

1 - "he infers that it’s “clothing optional.” It feels weird and unfair that some people [the clothed frat boys] on this part of the beach are dressed."

She's right. It's uncomfortable as shit, and out of place for them to be there, especially if the beach is progressively more nude-friendly. They are there to ogle.

2 - "The guys smirking."

HA. Ok, so she probably has an aura of "I've never done this before" like many do. I've seen it before. She also probably whipped out that "Sex Object" book, which of course would not fail to make everyone lose their minds over how hilarious it is. Just go to the beach. You happen to be naked there, and it's freeing. Just enjoy it.

3 - "I head back to my chair and spend some time watching passersby."

She's literally ogling back. Of course there's a strange dynamic.

I was going into this to defend her, as this is a niche and generally weird thing as viewed by Americans, but honestly. She's out of place, and reinforcing her own experience by covering herself up, and MAKING IT WEIRD.

I shouldn't have typed this out. Fuck Buzzfeed hires morons, and allows morons to publish stuff. I hate this.

Loryn explains why she’s subjecting herself to a nude beach experience and posting it on BuzzFeed: “I’m doing this nude beach trip to take back my body, which society long ago decided it owned. To take back what’s mine.”

The mystery deepens. Who took Loryn's body? Why did they take it? Where did they take it? Did it enjoy itself, and if so, with whom? Is this the obverse of an "out of body experience"?

Enquiring minds need to know...

Once in the car, she starts reading Jessica Valenti‘s Sex Object and starts crying

I can relate to her.

sounds to me like nobody oogled. in my experience, men just run their eyes right pass ugly women. they judge very quickly. this woman just felt bad because she knows she's ugly. even she admitted she's struggled with it but lies that she "conquered" it.

This was the first and last time I look at a promoted "story" on Snapchat (something like a week ago IIRC).

These are the people that just go to places to ruin them.

compliments = oppression

And nary an instance of eye rape.
