Nude shaming and forbiddance is weird.

Posted by Ivanbg2003 - June 3rd, 2024


I like being naked when I am alone in my room and in the house, but it is illegal to be naked in public, and family members forbid me to be naked around others. I still do not fully understand why someone would care if someone else is naked or not. It is how we were born, the human body in its 100% natural form, and it is harmless. If simply seeing someone naked doesn't hurt anyone or do any harm, then why is it illegal? What exactly makes it so wrong? The most damage it'll do is that it will make people mildly uncomfortable, but as it becomes more commonplace, that discomfort will go away entirely. As nudity is harmless, it doesn't make sense for it to be restricted so much. In some places, public smoking is allowed. Where I live, there is a shop with seats and tables near it, and sometimes the people there smoke. But did you know that when you smoke, you not only harm your health, but the fume that comes out of your smoking is bad and dangerous for the people around you? Yet that is allowed, but public nudity is not. How is that logical?

So where did the shame of nudity come from? A lot of people have probably just been taught it, and it is one of those things people just accept without thinking about it and never think about how weird it is. 

Human beings don’t naturally feel ashamed of being naked. Shame about nudity is purely learned, not innate. People who are not taught to feel shame about nudity aren’t ashamed of nudity.

We’re born not caring if anyone sees us naked, and we don’t care if other people around us are naked. The reason humans started wearing clothes is because of cold times, but what about when it's summer and it's heating outside? Many tribes still live naked in many countries across the globe and are relaxed about nudity. Are they embarrassed? No.

Yeah I agree with your comment. I think if we actually tried it at first it might feel silly but over time it won't affect us. One thing for sure is that children don't handle this appropriately their brains are developing and will for sure feel uncomfortable.
