The Naked Body:

[worm82075]

I couldn't vote either because there should be a fourth option for both questions.

 

The nude human form is completely natural, but should not necessarily be revealed.

 

Is the nude human form associated with sexual activities?

 

Yes, but it is natural and should be celebrated.

PartIcipating in this thread is becoming harder and harder, but also more interesting. I agree with everyoune that said that the nude is beautiful and should be revealed, but Worm's last reply is also an excellent point: There are many ways to reveal the body... not necessarily by taking all the clothes off, (this is the easiest way) but by letting imagine what is under the clothes, for example. The amount of clothes that you wear is irrelevant; More important is HOW you wear them.

A girl, for example could be heavily dressed and appear sexy, while an almost undressed girl could be boring, and viceversa.

So, in a few words i think that "the way you appear" is an essential thing for sure, but could be nothing without "the way you are" Art of seduction maybe, this is the magic that all girls should have.

This is so true.

 

However, in my part of the country and many parts of the world, "beauty is in the eye of the beerholder".

I'm nude in front of my PC, is anyone offended?

 

:blink:

 

Meh. Been there, done that. It was prolly b/c I was simply too lazy to get dressed after my shower... ^_^ Ah, I kid, I kid... I wasn't lazy, I just didn't feel like wearing clothes b/c it was sweltering hot, and my AC didn't work...

 

Well, I just got back from Australia, and I've gotta say, people are A LOT more lax about the clothing rules on the beaches there than in the U.S. I saw a little girl running around nude (I didn't WATCH! God, what are you people thinking?!), and I saw a woman in her 20's sun-bathing topless. It didn't bother me or anything, it just came as a shock at first. After a while, it was just like seeing someone on the beach with a swim-suit on (once again, I did NOT sit there and watch. I am not a pervert, thank you very much).

 

Oh, and FYI, this is not just about Female nudity. Just nudity in general. Like saying (if you're a guy), "Ewww! Naked dudes!" and then saying, "Sweet! Naked women!" (vise-versa for the gals) does not count as "Nudity is okay with me." that is classified as, "I want to see naked men/women, but not the same sex as me."

for the record, I like looking at both sexes in the nude! :whistling:

Many countries "taboos" on nudity are different than the States, too many people worry about this and that and the price of this and that, do we really need to worry about the himan body unclothed?

 

I like nudity,it bothers me not,but then I'm in touch with my emotions and my inner self and paths join for a reason, do they not!

I agree Dez, many people's repulsion to nudity of either sex stems from an insecurity of their own sexuality or appearance.

Don't know why anybody is offended by people wearing nothing.. I'm not.
