The offender was not giving up and dared to hit up the manager and demand a complimentary pizza for giving a “free full body show.” The higher-up then called the author and instructed him to bring the pizza back and call the authorities for indecent exposure. The guy did just that, but “Alishia” tried to tell the police that he had sexually assaulted her. 

u/DemonMaster2162 left right after the phone call, and the cops showed up at the restaurant shortly after to collect a sworn statement. After “Alishia” heard that he gave said statement in front of his son’s mother, she admitted to perjuring herself.  

In the comments section, the author was applauded for being professional, and it was also revealed that the woman allegedly did it a couple of times and is now in jail. 

What do you think about this?

Bored Panda decided to get in touch with Nai’s House in order to receive a professional opinion on this delicate situation. Firstly, we invited the representative to give a brief introduction to the company: “Nai’s House is a blended youth and wellbeing service that offers a new way to access and receive mental health support. Our approach is non-clinical and it has been developed from the viewpoint of the service user. It is backed by research and incorporates many of the ideals that youth consultations and agencies have highlighted a need for. This means we can deliver a service that is flexible and informal in its approach.”

We then wondered about the science behind indecent exposure: “Although this is not a topic that Nai’s House specializes in, research shows that indecent exposure can be something that stems from someone’s need for adrenaline or change in their lives. Leaning into taboo acts (especially of a sexual or dangerous nature) can sometimes be a sign of people who are unhappy in their normal day-to-day lives. Risky behavior or decision-making can be considered a form of self-harm in some situations. Unfortunately, acts such as indecent exposure can cause emotional trauma to those affected. There are some individuals committing indecent exposure who will not understand the traumatic effect of their actions due to a lack of empathetic consideration or to a desensitization from porn exposure; however, there are always individuals who are aware of the damage they can cause and find enjoyment in that as well.”

“Initial safety is the priority in these situations, so it would be important to remove yourself from being exposed to as quickly as possible and to find help. Depending on where you are, this could be a passerby or a manager of a venue who can contact the police, or immediately contacting the police yourself. Reporting crimes like this and taking it seriously as a sexual offense is incredibly important. It is then equally as important to find emotional support for yourself after the event, either from your existing support network or a professional,” the spokesperson said when we pondered what a person should do if they find themselves in a similar situation.

Last but certainly not least, we asked Nai’s House how to cope with trauma: “The first step to dealing with trauma is to not allow it to build up into a scary unspoken secret within yourself. It is important to continue to look after yourself physically, eat healthily, continue with routines, etc., and then when you are ready, reach out to someone to talk about what has happened. The most important thing is giving yourself time and grace to overcome what you have experienced. You may experience flashbacks, new fears, or a dramatic change in your mood – in this situation, it may be best to contact a professional.”
