    People want the option to use their balcony. Then they realize it’s usually not so pleasant being exposed like that to the sun, wind, temp.

      … or just ‘exposed’. to neighbors, passers-by, and the pervert in the corner office across the street.

        Heh, I walk around naked with the blinds open because where I live, people would need binoculars to see me and if they choose to, their resulting suffering is their own fault. One advantage of being unattractive…

        There’s definitely a guy in the building across from me that stares. I don’t think he’s a creep – he’s probably just bored and looking around – but his face is pressed up against the window so he stands out. I’ve made eye contact a few times, ugh.

        Joke’s on them! I’ll stare into their telescope and out-perv them any day of the week…

      Agreed! They’re always filthy/dusty and annoying to clean.

      And even though no one gives a shit enough to stare, it’s hard not to feel… watched.
