Dogging vs. exhibitionism vs. sex in public
Dogging refers to the act of engaging in sexual activity in a public place, typically a car park or other secluded outdoor location, while other people watch. It often involves strangers meeting through online forums or social media and arranging to meet up for the purpose of watching or engaging in sexual activity in a public place.
Exhibitionism, on the other hand, is the act of exposing one’s genitals in public, typically for sexual arousal or gratification. This can include flashing, or intentionally exposing oneself to others, as well as other forms of indecent exposure.
Sex in public refers to the act of engaging in sexual activity in a public place, without necessarily involving others watching or participating. This could include having sex in a park or on a beach, for example.
While all three of these terms involve some form of sexual activity or indecent exposure in a public place, they each have different nuances and legal implications.
Dogging and exhibitionism are typically considered to be illegal or indecent acts, while sex in public may or may not be illegal depending on the specific circumstances and the laws of the jurisdiction in question.
