A question was asked on Quora, “Why did humans initially start to hide their privates from other humans?” and a great answer was given by John Romero, a classical musician – among other not-so-great answers. I would never have found it, had the person who answered not linked to my blog post about pros and cons of running naked.
Well, to return the favor, here’s a link to his great answer. Make sure you upvote if you liked his answer.

“Well, that was an awful experience!” Andy said.
Nobody else said a word, they simply agreed silently, each with the slightest of nods.
“And to think! People used to live that way! How could they stand it?”
No response.
“It must have felt like spending your life in a jail cell – never leaving – all the while being in the possession of the key.”

Today’s topic might seem a bit off-topic for a nudist blog, but bear with me. Today I want to talk to you about money.
What is money? How does someone make money and why don’t they make m0re of it?
Many of us use it daily without fully understanding it, or without understanding it at all beyond how much of it they need for their day-to-day expenses.
So, here’s a thought – a truth at that – that will blow your mind:
Money is time.

I don’t know when I really started liking to wear clothes, but I remember that I was partly drawn to it by the sheer excitement of exploring the world without exposing my entire body to its elements.
While that is part of the truth, the other side which dragged me back (and another reason I refused to turn from my way to clothing) was the terror of being found in the midst of that exploration by someone. Back then, that “someone” were my parents. Continue reading

Ever since I wrote the post about supporting Stephen Gough, I’ve had this feeling that somehow I haven’t adequately explained how I think public nudity is about freedom. Recently, I read about Matt Taylor, a scientist at ESA, being criticized by the public for wearing what they considered an inappropriate shirt on the day ESA landed a man-made machine (Philae) on a comet going by the designation 67P. I wrote about this on my other blog. That day, a more concrete thought began to form in my mind.

Well, here’s a misnomer if there ever was one: The Undress!
Because we really need a complicated way to do simple things, since we’re ashamed of implementing simple solutions. I’ll never understand why people are so eager to circumvent their irrational fears and feelings of shame with their hard earned money which could have been much better spent.
If I ever see someone using this silly thing I don’t think I’ll be able to stop laughing – first at the silly way this whole process looks, then at the sheer foolishness of the person using it.

There are certain things that are commonly believed to be exactly opposite of the way they actually are. Since I wouldn’t want to spark debate on a side topic, let me give an example that is historic by now – geocentrism. Geocentrism is the belief that the Earth is the center of the universe. We now know that we don’t really know what the center of the universe is, but are certain that the Earth is definitely not it.
One such modern misconception is, I think, involving clothes and nudity. Nudity is always criminalized on the grounds that it is sexual, perverted, ugly, etc. Clothes, they say, hide our ugliness, our perversions and our sexuality. In my opinion, this is dead wrong. Continue reading
