indecency
Aschemosune denotes conduct or exposure marked as indecent, whether seen in nakedness or committed in sexual conduct.
The attested use concerns indecency in two settings: exposure through walking naked in Revelation 16:15 and conduct described as indecent in Romans 1:27.

Indecency in exposure or conduct · dominant
Both occurrences use the accusative singular feminine form within clauses concerning what may be seen or committed. In Revelation 16:15 the APB renders a warning that someone may walk naked and others may see “the indecency of him”; in Romans 1:27 it renders males with males “committing what is indecent.”
In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the term with “indecency” in Revelation 16:15 and “what is indecent” in Romans 1:27. These renderings indicate the clauses' presentation rather than a precise token-by-token equivalence.
