Gyan Moyes, Tyagarah
Naturalist Debra Lee Conomy wants people attending the beach at Tyagarah to not be fazed by incidents such as public and unsolicited masturbation. I guess that makes stalking and unsolicited sexual invitations ok too.
Thanks for the excellent advice on how to deal with life’s problems, Debra.
The clothing optional beach at Tyagarah does not work for local residents or for many of the Shire’s residents who used to be able to enjoy one of the more sublime and spacious beach aspects in the shire.
Incidents of masturbation, stalking and other offensive behaviour have not ceased. Neither has the constant stream of single men.
We have lived with the reality of the clothing optional beach for 20 years and local residents want it closed.
