A crime against what, and who? The law? Not sure...we have some pretty stupid laws, or lack of at times.
It was wrong. Imagine that! Something being "wrong" in reality. Some of us still have consciences that we haven't destroyed.
If someone leaves a wallet full of money, purse or something where we can pick grab it as ours, is it a crime? Should be, but we have the snake of technicalities in our systems upon which a person can get away with just about anything, at times.
Just because someone else is without wisdom or gets forgetful and makes something available to us does not mean that it is okay for us to take advantage of such opportunity.
I think people should use common sense and realize that if they want to walk around naked in their own house, or have their children walk around naked, they should invest in some curtains or blinds. Why does this have to be made into a huge legal issue? It wouldn't be an issue to begin with if people just used a little common sense first.
I use to enjoy going around nude inside my home before I got married and my father-in-law moved in with us (he's now 86). I installed blinds, curtains, and solar screens on all my windows. I would have loved to go around my yard nude but my neighbors and local police frown on such actions. If I saw my neighbor's child undressing within their home with curtains and blinds open, i'd probably ask my wife to go tell the parents.
a crime like this is usually a double standard issue. since the person looking in the window was a make looking at a female, he is charged with the crime. but lets reverse this, if a female had been looking at a male undressing, the male would likely have been arrested for indecent exposure.

Welcome to liberal logic. Only certain darling groups can be victims.
Passing in the car or sidewalk to look and not stare isn't an issue.
If someone stays there gazing a long tome like it's a show or uses optical enhancers to see in, then that starts to violate privacy law.
It's the same as the three second rule when you drop food on the floor.

Exhibitionism, while illegal, has never been considered as serious as voyeurism. To me it seems that someone should be able to look out their own window all they want, and if someone within view chooses to get undressed in front of a window without blinds, it should not be a crime for someone to look, even if it is creepy. When a camera, telescope or binoculars come into the picture it should become criminal.

If the blinds were open, was it a crime to look?
