Exactly, sj -- if it weren't taboo, people wouldn't get so bloody giggly and stupid about it.
As for only sexy people being allowed to go naked, I'm afraid you lads are in for a bit of a shock -- your view of ugly might be entirely different to someone else's, and I don't see much difference between being ugly clothed or nude. I've seen people wear some bloody offensive shirts!
I remember discussing life drawing with my high school art teacher once. He told me there was no way he'd ever want to sketch a supermodel -- why bother recording someone whose own body said nothing about who they were?
Our bodies are evidence of our passage through life. Just as lives take many different shapes, so do bodies. Why be ashamed of it?
