Nudity Cultural Norms

Not being able to cope with nudity seems to be a USA specific phenomenon. I female friend of mine was almost arrested in the US for dancing too suggestively, and she was far from being nude. Seems to be a puritanism thing.

Probably a unpopular view / idea. But if we just took the tabo out of being nude... It would resolve the issue 2 fold, people would not be afraid of being seen nude, and the drive for people wanting to take pictures of people nude would go down too.There once was a time a ankle showing, then it was the knee was taboo too.Remember we were all born nude, and the idea that being nude is taught.I have a meeting, wanted to say more, but no time, sorry. TTL!

Plenty of "normal" people outside of HN visit saunas, nudist parks, and nude beaches. It's perfectly alright not to be comfortable with doing so yourself, but other people feel differently.Then again, there are societies that will shame (and do worse things to) women for showing their hair or skin to strangers.If you're (un)lucky, your innocent holiday pictures may make the front page of Wikifeet, but that doesn't mean you're a creep for posting your holiday p

The norm is moving. People likely seen more naked then many of there ancestors would have combined. Let alone Solidcenter smut.

why do people have to always try to convince me how unfazed they are by nudity? if you're unfazed by it, please link me to your nudes. if not, you're fazed.There's a big difference between being desensitized towards general nudity (if we presume said nudity was voluntary) as opposed to having your own nudity exposed to other strangers. There's also a big difference between pornography and nudity.There's a lot more nuance to it than just "n000ds plz.&quo

You don't seem to understand how this works.If you ask a nudist to get naked in a non-nudist environment, he's probably going to refuse. The same rules don't apply to every context.The world post-privacy is going to be totally different from the one we currently live in.

Why is being nude normal in some places, but not others? That suggests that a stigma exists in one but not the other, and so participating in one or the other is implicitly supporting that.

All I got from this is people need to get over being naked / seen naked.In Japan it's common to get naked with strangers people of the same sex at a hot spring. IIUC in Finland it's common to get naked with strangers of all sexes at a sauna.In the past, in the USA it was common to take communal same-sex showers in PE class in junior high school and high school.But sometime in the past 40 years, that seems to have changed in the USA.
