Religion. *closes eyes and pushes up glasses* Religion is the root of all evil.

It beats going to a strip club & paying the lady $20 to put her g-string ON.

Human smuggery: we like to think of ourselves as superior to animals. Being naked reminds us that we aren't, especially once the mojo starts to rise.

It's not in nudist colonies.

Seriously though. Nudity is taboo because it's linked to sex, which can be discomforting to the individual during certain circumstances. Don't get me wrong, t*ts and ass are great, but it has its place.

Common now, you should all be old enough to more more than one interest at this point.

Made up societal values, simple as that.

Why in some societies women can walk around bare-chested and it's not an issue. Why at the turn of the 20th century in the US it was lewd for a woman to show more than her ankle while at the beach. Etc. etc. etc.

Are you insinuating that there are societal values that aren't made up?

So societal values are necessarily contraproductive? Or was there no point to bringing it up?

Societal views change every decade for example, in the 60'2, 70's and 80's nudity was allowed in movies; even as hilarious comedy in shows like benny hill! You try to do that now and you will probably get angry letters from concerned mothers.

Nudity is still allowed in movies.
