Naked neighbour refuses to close curtains or cover up
If you live in an urban area, chances are you’ve seen much more of your neighbours than you’d probably like to. Well, one couple has had enough, and are asking the internet for advice after multiple requests for their naked neighbour to close the blinds or get dressed have been ignored.
User “Sparklyshoes16” took to the online forum Mumsnet to ask fellow members, “Am I being unreasonable to think she should know better and at least close her curtains when getting dressed?”
She explained that her neighbour was in the nude constantly – even during the day – and that other neighbours had also noticed and asked her to stop – but naked Nancy simply refuses.
Perhaps surprisingly, the Mumsnet community mostly sided with the exhibitionist neighbour.
“Have you considered not looking?” suggested user BertrandRussell. Another agreed, telling the nosy couple to “stop peeping at her”.
Others pointed out that the neighbour wasn’t doing anything illegal – under the Sexual Offences Act 2003, it is not an offence to be naked in public in England and Wales. After all, she wasn’t exactly starkers in the street, right?
“If you don’t like it, don’t look,” wrote user Originalfoolgirl. “I doubt the window is so close you can’t look elsewhere. It’s her house, if she wants to be naked in it, that’s her prerogative.”
