Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

You are right that in your space you are free to be pantsless and as such I wouldn't impose my presence and sensibilities upon you. In fact I would defend your right to be pantsless in your space. However if you decided to come to my space, I would insist on pants - failure to comply would be you imposing your wants on me without consent, putting your wants above mine. If you think that I should be okay with you being pantsless, why? Who are you to tell me how to live my life? Why aren't you accepting people living differently from you? Me not wanting pantslessness in my presence only impacts you if you force yourself into it.
What about pants in public? Are they required?
Extrapolate a bit why don't you? If a group of people create a space with certain rules, it is a "public" space for people who agree to follow the rules.
I am curious to know if you think that there is more to the requirement to wear pants than historic reasons.
... I mean this isn't really a conversation about pants but I truly don't care about nudity. I'm from a culture that isn't anywhere near as neurotic about it as certain others. I still prefer some kind of covering on the privates though simply because I don't want ball sweat, urine traces, fecal matter or vaginal discharge on my things.
