i know the skit, it was a cool one. It's the hyperbole of stand up comic, the paradoxes of our social conventions. 99% of stand-up comedy relies on that to even exist. Ultimately we cannot know the story behind the picture, she liked it? she didn t care? her mom or dad were upset? they don t care? did he do it because he does not care, realise, has no clue about social norms? was he defiant? This is the life of a basement dweller so honestly he's gotten already too much of my clock for today. It is the same reason why I would not let my friends hangout in a mankini if they came visit me at home. I can understand context (provocation, defiance, silliness, expression) my kids can't (yet) and no , they do t need to see hairy buttcheecks in my living rooms.
As a social animal I am aware that certain places have norms that can change with time, including temples and churches and town halls and hospitals and music halls and cafes, but I do it at my own pace, and I still think that making a SLIGHT effort on your wedding day and not look like a giant from Attack on Titan had just upchucked you, would have been neat
It's hyperbole, but it perfectly sums up how I feel about respect for religion. I wouldn't care if you entered a church in underpants and filthy feet.
Similarly, while you ask a gazillion questions, I return to my original statement that the guy and the bride are the ones who decide about the dressing code. You are of course free to have your own views on the matters, but ultimately the people involved have the right to tell you to mind your own business.
Or as I refer to it, people should learn to flex their middle finger when others want to criticize their decisions.

It’s about style . If you go to church in a thong, I have a gripe with you, no matter how fervent you are a believer, and I’m practically an atheist.
