This is a case where every other organism on earth, except for maybe the junk bug, looks at humans with a confused air of disdain. Like, why did you manufacture this intractable problem by mandating clothing and shaming nudity in the first place?
You think humans invented clothing because of shame?
That's completely backwards, we invented clothing for protection, and not seeing everything all the time led to shame when someone could see us.
Like, I'm pretty sure hermit crabs feel something similar to shame when they don't have a shell, they need something to drive them to not only protect themselves, but to ensure they can reproduce and raise their young. That's why humans instinctually get weird about exposed genitals and boobs, those are the most important parts of a human from an evolutionary perspective.
I get what you're trying to say, it's just you're going about it completely backwards
Nah, I get that exposed flesh isn't always comfortable or safe and the practical solution is to just steal the skin of some other animal (or convert crude oil into super soft knit fabrics). I'm just of the personal mindset that if someone is comfortable enough in their own skin that they are completely fine going about their business in the buff, that the rest of society shouldn't lose its shit and just be like, "k whatever u do u naked person wear sunblock."
I love going around in 6 feet of snow without clothes
You're from Alaska, too??!
