Who decided nudity is "bad?"

Just saw on TV a "protest" of celebrities against the media. Basically, a Young singer was photographed changing, and the pictures were shoved into public eyes via a magazine.

And all the while, I was thinking "What's all the fuss about?"

Don't get me wrong, I obviously feel sorry for the singer, and can't help but think the magazine is immoral and evil. But really, if I dig deeper, I begin to think:

Which IDIOT decided nudity is "bad?"

Why should children under the age of 18 not be allowed to see naked people?

And why make it ILLEGAL for us to walk around naked (indecent exposure)?

Is it not natural for us to be in the Nude? Nature/God certainly did not intend for us to cover ourselves up (unless for climatic reasons). No other animal (apart from those sea-shell crab things) wear "clothes." And even the shell crabs "dress up" not due to embarassment from other crabs, but for protection and shelter.

So how did all this "Nudity is bad" crap come to be? I have no idea, but here are a few of my wildcard guesses:

1. Men. Or, more specifically, erections. I suppose ancient people got tired of having pleasant conversations being interrupted by a throbbing hard-on. Thus, loin cloths were invented to conceal this inconvenience. But really, is it that much of a distraction? Nowadays, obviously, it will be. Imagine being in middle of a business meeting, and as you get up to shake the other persons hand, a third arm extends itself. Not exactly pleasant. But heres the thing- erections don't actually "mean" anything apart from more blood flow to the penis. Women assume that a man is turned on when he has an erection- not so. We can be looking at chemistry equations and still have an erection (and we're certainly am not turned on by it). So then, if they don't mean anything, whats the problem??? Erections would be treated like any other physical act, like coughing or burping.
2. Men with small d*cks need to conceal something. Nuff' said.
3. Very fat/skinny people need to conceal something.
4. If we were all naked, sexual intercourse would probably increase. And people like the church don't like this. Why would it increase? Well...the body parts are just "there." No need to take off anything, and it would just be darn easier.

So now, thanks to all this nakeness stuff, we don't even know whats natural anymore. Is it even Natural for men to like breasts as much as they do nowadays? Or is it just a fad "we like what we can't get" thing like the Ankles of Victorian Women. I have no clue. And that reminds me...

WHY THE HECK ARE BREASTS CONSIDERED SEXUAL?

They have no role in sexual intercourse- their main purpose is lactation. So why are they covered up and concealed like a mound of gold. Obviously, NOW, it is too late to change this. If tommorow, it was law that women go topless, all the men on earth would just drown the earth in Drool. But I believe this is only because over the past half century, we have covered up the female breasts like some kind of "Natures secret." Basically, its a case of wanting what we didn't get.

But after...a few years of introducing the topless law, the earth would start spinning again, and the world would go on. The initial excitement dries up, and the breasts are seen in their proper light- as a body part, just like the nose or the lips.

Thats what I think anyways.

It makes the specialness and value of sex/ones body less.

It's like the Janet Jackson superbowl thing.

Here, when her t!tty popped out, everyone was like: "SCANDAL!"

But, when they saw it in Europe, they were like: "Ooopsie, there's her boob."
They are used to seeing boobs on the telly.

I think you're right on.

In Europe. There are lots of topless women at the beach. And I never find myself getting turn on by the fact that she's topless. In fact, I would rather get turned on by her breasts being covered by a bikini top and seeing that. (it have to be nice breasts of course ;) )

I think men get their interest in a women increased by any nice shaped part of a womens body, not just the ass, tits and *****

As a matter of fact, breasts do have an explicit bioligical function for arousal of men. I saw something on the discovery channel about sex a while back that stated that they are for sexual attraction, because if they weren't, then when not lactating they would "deflate" and get all floppy, like a chimpanzee's do.:up:

"Who decided nudity is bad?"

Good question. Now excuse me while I try to move off to Europe... :whistle:

And the reason why breasts are sexual is that they exist to remind men of the female buttocks. Humans are the only primates which don't mate exclusively from the doggy style position. We are also incredibly visual creatures who need a sexual marker in the front half of the body. Hence, the female breasts which when pressed together is visually remindful of that wonderful piece of tush in the back.

:D

That's mainly due to western commercialisation and the media. If you travel to many african countries that haven't been exposed to the western way of thinking, woman live topless. And the men of those tribes do not find it sexually arousing whatsoever. They serve their practical purposes over there, but in our world, media has glammed up the sexual "functions" of which breasts represent. Years and years of glamoursing chicks in corsets and bikinis have lured us away from out human instincts, but i'm not complaining ;)

Religious groups. Media. All those secretly bias judgementals. Well, some of them anyway.

Yeah, also men in nudist colonies (apparently) don't walk around with erections all the time, even though they see titties and tush all the time!

Although it does beg the question:

If humans back in the day didn't get immediately turned on by seeing each other naked, then how DID they get turned on enough to procreate?

My thoughts exactly.

Can't think of a User name, I guess people get turned on when they start touch each other or something...lol, ALL animals are naked apart from us, and they do fine with reproduction. ;)

I'm 17 right now, and maybe I'm blinded by my own "urges," but I can't think of a good reason why people under the age of 18 can't see naked people. What is this?!?!? In my opinion, this has the effect of making people MORE obsessive about sex, since nudity is "put on a pedestal" so to speak.

Any ideas???

Haha true.

Soapz, I think the answer to your original question lies in this Wikipedia article:

Well, if you really want to get into it, why even have sex with hot women? Sex is the same with an uggo. Hell, go even further, why not have sex with an artificial vagina? Its still a vagina, and you still cvm.

yeah if you know anything about anything you'd know it all dates back to when that hoebag Eve gave that dumbass Adam the apple. They weren't self conscious until they sinned...afterwards they were ashamed or shy or soemthing.

So girls run around beaches topless in Europe? What part of Europe is this? I have been to many beaches in Europe (Rimini in Italy...Jurmala in Latvia :D ...Every Freaking Beach in Ukraine :D :flowers: ) and I have yet to see girls running around topless at any of them. Actually, I saw a TON more topless females around the beaches of Miami :nervous: (disgusting looking females though).

Walk around America in the summer. Every ugly fat female is wearing little bitty shorts and flip-flops. When they sit down you see everything :crazy: . Again, you don't see this in Continental Europe. Those girls seem to have more class.

The difference with Americans/Brits is that they are obsessed with sex. Everything is or relates in some strange way to sex. Just read the posts on this board. You don't find this in Continental Europe. I believe this is because girls from these countries offer men nothing more than sex. They have no depth and terrible attitudes.

You guys remind me of the gay Americans who scream about how open Europeans are about homosexuality. Yet, they have no clue how unpopular homosexuality is in much of Europe (see recent events in Latvia and Estonia for proof). Hell, the gay friendliest places on earth are San Francisco and Miami.

because the roman catholic church used to be the main church and decided all the rules, and unfortunately their motto is "if it feels good, STOP IMMEDIATELY".

I believe Seinfeld said best when he said, if women wore hats all the time, men would get horny by looking at woman's hair!

Its all about what we can't have. Ever notice how half-clothed women are sexier than naked women?
