WriterAlexis An unbalanced judiciary would rule on the case one way or another. The population that does not support the ruling becomes radicalized over the issue and further polarizes the affected countries and the world.
I cannot help but feel that this is influenced by certain events in certain countries.

I doubt it. In my opinion it would become in some similar to high heels.
Something that is widely accepted even as dress code for a job, something that has a lot of lovers between the girls, (I, for example), and something that very rarely ends on the courts.
I am not comparing heels with belts, I am comparing the social background. A condition "sine quae non" for a mainstream usage of belts is a social background that ensures a very little amount of conflicts on the courts.
Depends on whether there is a mainstreaming of the physical device only, or of the sort of keyholding dynamics Alexis has experienced.

Ever wear a burka to a French beach?
WriterAlexis The French love telling people what to wear. Many pools there ban board shorts as well, if I recall correctly.
Lots of nude beaches full of German tourists though, so either the French love to see skin, or they are motivated by islamophobia. Take a long history of secularism, throw in some casual racism, and there you go.
The bit at the end is giving A Canticle for Leibowitz, Walter M. Miller Jr.
Ines it's impossible unless it becomes a trend, and in this case, it will be an item of fashion, but probably without the lock. In the past, sometimes fashion borrowed from bondage world, but fashion items did have not the closing or restraining elements. They are just for show, not the real items. The real one (for example, a collar locked with a padlock) will not be acceptable in a lot of environments. Same for chastity belts. If created just for fashion maybe, but the real thing will surely be looked at badly. It will be very divisive, a lot of arguments will kick on, and the purpose will disturb a lot of people. Even if you remove the parenting part, in the collective imagination a belt is the flagship of patriarchy. I can't even imagine an item that speaks more about patriarchy than a chastity belt.
Now that I think about it, I did see some pictures of a German woman in a belt on a nude beach. Linking it would be highly inappropriate, though.

Of course, but I say that Into a society where belts become mainstream, - not fashion clothes inspired by-, is for force a society that widely accepts it, - I am not saying that that point is close-, so a society where conflicts about it will be few.

Most nude beach goers would frown upon that. For one, she would appear rather clothed in most belts; plenty of bikini bottoms out there that show more. Second, it would be perceivef as a sex toy (and probably is if she flaunts it like that), which is as inappropriate on nude beaches as it is on clothed ones. Maybe moreso, since nudists do not like getting lumped in with the publix sex play people.

Sure, but I doubt many of our members appreciate voyeuristic photos being traded here.
Having never been to one, it was my understanding that nude beaches are "clothing optional." As in a large number of people are still clothed.
Despite currently living on an Atlantic coast state, the closest one is several hundred miles away.
WriterAlexis here nudist beach are for nudist only.
WriterAlexis Having never been to one, it was my understanding that nude beaches are "clothing optional." As in a large number of people are still clothed.
Yeah, the clothed state is less critical than the perception of the belt as a toy.
Public nude beaches are generally more clothing-optional, yes, but unless you are in a group that includes people wearing less clothing than would be accepted on clothed beaches, people are going to question your motivations for choosing that part of the beach. Now, women usually get some slack when wearing bottoms, for a mix of biological reasons and the fact that not every clothed beach allows topfree sunbathing (not sure what the norms in France are like there). But people who visit a designated nude beach fully clothed do run the risk of making people uncomfortable. Large numbers of people being clothed on a clothing-optional beach is usually a sure sign that nude bathing is dying in that area.
In that case, I probably used the wrong terminology. Such places where nudity is mandatory don't exist in the US. Most US beaches do not allow toplessness for women. (Strangely, for men it is allowed, despite having remarkably similar nipples.)
WriterAlexis Even in specifically "nudist resorts", nudity is not mandatory. I was once asked to be a "plus one" for a friend going to her father's birthday party. It was only when we were on the way to the party did she tell me that it was going to be at "Sunshine Acres" and I should not be surprised that most of the people would be without clothes but I should not feel any pressure to be naked myself. It was an interesting day

I am sure many people, even among those here, enjoy photos of beautiful girls in nothing but a chastity belt. But there are better places to exchange them than this forum.

It depends on the particular place. Policies can range anywhere from "clothing optional" to "nudity required whenever sensible" - nobody is making you undress in cold weather in any reasonable place, for example. How closely that policy is followed is another matter, if you are a newcomer visiting a long-standing member... no wait, long, standing members are not appreciated there... a well-established frequent patron possibly belonging to the club that runs the place, you can often get a bit of leeway even if the policy states something else.
to write something again on the original topic. I wonder if chastity devices go mainstream, what would they become mainstream as? As protection in a marriage/relationship from one partner cheating on the other? As an educational tool for parents? As a measure of the state (chastity belt laws)? Or as a means of self-protection from attacks? That would perhaps be a very interesting discussion about which of these scenarios would be most likely?
