Adult Only Beach Area

[CathyBogart]

I love it. The more places people can go to RELAX, not hang around screaming kids, the better. There are so many family-friendly places funded by public money that a childless/childfree person wouldn't be able to enjoy, I don't see why this is a problem. I don't mind going to a nude beach to have a relaxing afternoon of QUIET myself, but I know a lot of people who would.

Backtracking a bit...if that's the attitude you're going to take, then I don't want to pay taxes towards schools since I don't have any offspring.

Again, it is in society's best interest (as well as being a constitutional requirement in state constitutions) that children be educated.

I fail to see where an adults only section of beach is in the best interest of society.

Want an adults only beach? Form a club, buy a chunk of beachfront real estate, and limit membership to adults only.

I think it's crap, frankly. Not the concept, but the age range. Most 16 year olds wouldn't be much of a disturbance, would probably just stick to one corner of the beach and throw frisbee. I mean, we're old enough to pay income tax, drive and have kids. You can share your beach with us.

According to the original article ...

"About a quarter of the city's nearly milelong beach is now for adults only."

That leaves about 3/4 of a Mile of Beach for "Frisbee & Makin Out" !
I think we ARE sharing the beach with you!

Nawwwww....I can see ya point C&S. But the real issue here is segregation within public places. If people want to go to a placew where they can be away from kids....there's plenty of private places like pubs etc etc.

As I mentioned earlier, even pubs/bars aren't sacred any more The fact is, there aren't plenty of places. Everything is geared towards kids or having them. Just look at the commercials, for instance. For that matter, look at the general section here. All kind of topics like breastfeeding, how dilated they were, have been posted there. It's brought up all the time that this is a family site. If I had a child, I don't know if I'd want them reading all that. A little off topic but trying to make a point.
