Masturbating in public OK, Swedish court rules (1 Viewer)

[D.O.A.]

A Swedish court ruled this week that masturbating in public is OK if it’s not directed at anyone, local media report.

The ruling came after a man was charged with sexual assault for masturbating on a beach June 6 at Drevviken beach, The Local reported. The 65-year-old man removed his shorts and started masturbating close to the water.

The man was acquitted, and the ruling stated that it “may be proven that the man exposed himself and masturbated on this occasion,” but it wasn’t a crime because he wasn’t pleasuring himself towards a specific person.

“For this to be a criminal offence it’s required that the sexual molestation was directed towards one or more people. I think the court’s judgement is reasonable,” prosecutor Olof Vrethammar told a Swedish paper. “With that we can conclude that it is OK to masturbate on the beach. The act may be considered to be disorderly conduct.”

Vrethammar doesn’t plan to appeal the decision.

Since it does lead to blindness, I suggest you just do it till you need glasses.

TIL you can get beaten up in Sweden if you masturbate in the wrong direction, face the wall keep your eyes focused on a single point and you'll be fine

What if you accidentally meet the eyes of one of the twenty or so people gathered round staring at you and your goings on? Is it them at fault or the innocent masturbator is what I am really asking here

Times are changing. How long will Sweden (and other European countries) be able to be that liberal.
Right parties and movements everywhere.
