Comment on Man in gimp suit allowed to watch Shakespeare’s Globe play with children in audience

if you ever go to a place that has strange rules and laws, it’s because of people like this
like, yes, okay, there’s no rule saying that said you couldn’t attend a public event in a gimp suit. it doesn’t mean that he had to, did he? 🙄
i think it’s obvious he’s exploiting the freedom provided to dress in a gimp suit, which freedom you would use to attend a fetish/like-minded event or convention, to then attend something vanilla, where people are definitely not consenting or opting-in to the behaviour.
sure, it’s legal. but it’s fuckin weird, in the same way that attending in a furry costume would be weird. buying a yard ticket too? he knew what he was doing. if you can afford a fetish suit, you can afford a seat.
i will say that the moral “think of the children” arguments don’t have any weight in this scenario, because you’re taking those kids to a shakespeare play, lol. i could understand being morally outraged if this loser turned up to wacky warehouse 😄
