Adam and eve were created nude.\nIt is the lust with evil eyes which forced human beings to seek covers in various ways.

are you the opposite sex of that person.  Older folks tend to be less accepting of nudity in public.  Do you have a fence? What the F**k were they looking for then?

The fact that a nude body triggers different emotions in people cause them to feel insecure.  Christians who are against nudity have a greater tendency of thinking the nude body is evil than it shows the beauty of form and purpose beyond their ability to comprehend. The evil in their thoughts by seeing a nude person is in their mind not the nude. The more attractive a person the more evil thoughts are triggered.

Well...it's not really something I enjoy as such (although I have seen some very beautifully filmed sex scenes in the past).  I recently got around to watching Rome last week, which was notorious for its sex and nudity.  In the context of the story, though, it was all appropriate...in fact, quite restrained given the historical period.

I think they are both equally inappropriate, regardless of the state of mind, because we are humans with intellect and free will, not animals who follow their feelings blindly.\nHowever, since the question was which was worse, I'll state the following: People who dress immodestly usually do so because they have self-esteem issues, and they try to use their bodies to gain power over others. It may or may not be a conscious choice, but most of the time these people are fooling themselves into thinking that what they are doing isn't wrong, because society accepts it, and that they are dressed after all, as opposed to being nude (even though sometimes the line comes pretty close).\nA nude person knows they are nude and is not trying to fool anybody. Whether doing it out of protest, trying to get back to nature, or for some exhibitionist reason, they know what they are doing and know who they are for doing it. They are being honest with themselves.\nNow these are both generalizations, as a nude could be naked to be a whore, and someone dressed like one could feel guilty about looking that way, but who caves in because of a desire to belong. But for the most part from what I've seen the above holds true, and therefore dressing like a whore is "worse".

I think its because we are taught to be embarrassed about our bodies and about our sexuality. Those words bring those to mind, so it makes us uncomfortable...

Yup! Okay when I was about 7 or 8, my friend and I were curious about our "body parts" lol so we got naked. (I'm not gay or bi I was little). Anyways, I hear her mom coming up the stairs so I run into the closet. I was trying to hide but then she opens the door and she sees me naked! It was soooo embarrasing!

I believe it was the 15th or 16th century France.  And that was only for the upperclass.  In fact restrooms in any traditional sense were rare until the early 19th century anywhere.  The were referred to as bath houses or water closets before that point.  They were universal as well, jsut more seperated from the general public.\n\nAncient Rome just had holes in a rock bench along a long wall.  Men and women alike sat (or stood) side by side to do their business.  \n\nIt is thought that seperate restrooms were used to encourage chastity.  Women were innocent and should not be exposed to where men relieved themselves.  They were entirely to dainty to handle that.  Plus clothing was a factor.  Women had a lot more on.  These were days before tampons as well, so that created whole new problems at certain, ahem, times.

What time period do you think this is--the 70s and 80s?  Loose, please, to retain the mystery.  For that matter, no speedos either!  Boxers rule.  Nothing worse than seeing a strange man's stuff all scrunched up.  Ick.

I am skyclad every chance I get.  To be nude is to be one's own Godself.  Putting on clothes is putting on a false front.  Religions are all wrong.

I am not sure how it became offensive. but one theory of its connotation and origin is that it stands for "fornication under consent of king" so basically back in the days of serious monarchs. the king would approve certain peoples sex. basically giving them blessing to do such an act. most cases both parties weren't exactly willing so the king was basically approving rape. but it was for some purpose that I can't remember.

Pornographers would lose their customers if nudity (sex) was acceptable.\n\nAnd, bible thumpers consider the human body so evil it cannot be viewed by anyone at anytime.\n\nCensorship is the result of the two opposing groups agreeing on a single issue.\n\nProhibition always brings big profits. Sex sells in the theaters and in the churches, so don't expect it to be publicly acceptable in the near future.

Why in some countries 15 year old girls not allow to wear belly shirts, halter tops, short shorts and no bras in public, on streets, in stores.  Why they can't wear bikini's at the beach.\n\nWhy is there a warrant for arrest on a fashion model from Iran because she posed in a bra for a picture on a Madenform package to be used in Middle Eastern countries.  That was her only crime, allowing a picture to be taken of her in a bra.\n\nFor every postitive there is a negative.  That's a rule of the universe.
