Neighbours recently had their home remodelled, which involved them putting new glazing in their bathroom. The glass is not frosted enough and there’s a lot to see.

They are large windows too, starting at knee hight. How do I bring this up?

Bonus points if someone can tell me why this community keeps showing my subscription as pending.

    I’d tell them that I noticed I could clearly see the furnature, wall, or some detail and would rather not see them indecent.

    This is a great advice. Little buffer gray zone so you don’t have to directly say “hey, I can see you when you take a shit”.

      I may be overthinking it, but I feel like bringing up those kinds of details unprompted is more awkward. Like you’re hiding that you did see something.

      Just say you can see into their bathroom and thought they should know. If they ask what you saw, or if they look absolutely mortified you can assure them you didn’t see anything like that.

        I think it’s just a white lie to make this interaction easier. It’s something to fall back on. Probably both parties in that conversation actually know that something was seen but this way it’s easier to move past that (and ignore it).

        And yeah just saying “I can see in your bathroom” would work too but it might be a bit hard to say that if you have social anxiety (or something) so this plan is just to alleviate that stress.
