"swimming costumes"... are you British? :)
But yes, this apprehension of nudity is something I've always found so bizarre. Why is seeing skin of our species such a big deal? At what point of our social evolution did it evolve that way (because the idea of clothing is pretty universal to humans).
- Symmetry 13y agoThe idea of clothing isn't quite universal, but nearly so. Still, we're something of an outlier in how serious our nudity taboo is. As far as I can tell most cultures are ok with women going around topless and most think that it's ok for men and women to see each other naked when bathing, though I guess Hollywood is changing that.
