    People want the option to use their balcony. Then they realize it’s usually not so pleasant being exposed like that to the sun, wind, temp.

      … or just ‘exposed’. to neighbors, passers-by, and the pervert in the corner office across the street.

        Heh, I walk around naked with the blinds open because where I live, people would need binoculars to see me and if they choose to, their resulting suffering is their own fault. One advantage of being unattractive…

          I was annoyed at this local news investigation about a high rise neighbor complaining about another walking around naked with the blinds open. They had footage blured out but when you saw them talk with the “irate” neighbor you could tell they must of had to have put the camera right up to the window. Its like wtf you see the guy because your pressing you face against your glass to get a look. No way you see him if you casually hanging in your place.

        There’s definitely a guy in the building across from me that stares. I don’t think he’s a creep – he’s probably just bored and looking around – but his face is pressed up against the window so he stands out. I’ve made eye contact a few times, ugh.

        Joke’s on them! I’ll stare into their telescope and out-perv them any day of the week…

      Agreed! They’re always filthy/dusty and annoying to clean.

      And even though no one gives a shit enough to stare, it’s hard not to feel… watched.
