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?

Invite him over while she is taking a shower. Enjoy the view together. Let them draw their own conclusions.
Just tell them. If that was me I’d wanna know ASAP!
I feel like most of the comments are making a bigger deal out of this than it really is. “Hey guys, just FYI your frosted windows aren’t frosted enough, we can see through them from over here, just thought you should know”
It’s not really a complicated conversation.
Right? It’d be a bit of an embarrassing conversation but it would be a lot less awkward to bring it up now instead of waiting months to tell them. The longer you wait the harder it’ll be to tell them that you can see them naked.
Go there, ring the bell, tell them. The longer you wait the creepier that conversation is going to be.
And when you do it, make sure you stare at them unblinkingly to assert dominance.
Yeah exactly right. In a few weeks it’s worse.
Bring a video.
I have no idea what to do about the not-so-frosty windows, but regarding your bonus question, that’s just lemmy being laggy. Next time you refresh you’ll see that you’re subscribed. I had the same question yesterday and saw it being answered somewhere.
You’re going to have to post a few pictures for us to better asses the situation 🤣
The framing in this conversation is important. This is difficult, but making it clear you’d rather not see that is how I’d go.
I’d tell them that I noticed I could clearly see the furnature, wall, or some detail and would rather not see them indecent.
No way around it, it’s going to be a bit awkward, but telling them shouldn’t seem like a weird thing to do. If you’re polite, telling them about the issue is a kind thing to do.
Maybe a note outside their door? Could be anonymous if you don’t know them well and they don’t have cameras, saves both you and them the awkwardness
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”.
Stand naked outside the window and knock.
Or, just put a letter in the mailbox or on the front porch.
I choose your answer (The first bit). This will get the message across, while also restoring a balance and asserting dominance.

But what if you told them and they say " We know :)"?
Threesome!
Write them a letter. Tell them the issue.
You’re assuming they care. Maybe they’re comfortable with themselves. I used to make eye contact with my neighbors when I was showering and they were mowing. They stopped looking.
Ask them to dinner and explain you usually like to enjoy a hot meal with someone before you see them naked. Classy AF.
Can and should I slowly undress during the dinner?
Maybe? But the dinner should definitely only consist of phallic foods. All the sausages (bonus points for those big Chorizo that curl up), aubergine, cucumber etc churros for dessert. Really sets the tone.
Geoduck for extra points!
You have educated me today! Thank you.
