What does our society have against nudity?

refer yourself to what you quoted...He didn't need to come in here and try to stir it up with a witty remark.

[gamarada717]

Did you read my post at all?

He gave his oppinion, witty or not. You asked for thoughts. Even though I strongly think that his post was productive (besides getting you all riled up), you didn't even clarify that this was a serious discussion! How can you expect to start a discussion about nudity and not have a slapstick comment in it?

i thought this forum had some intelligence in it.


you proved me wrong.

I guess this will really rankle you.

America, founded by people so uptight that they left England.

right...back on topic now. i dont see anythign wrong with nudity. i dunno if the fact that im almost 16 is affecting my judgment on this question? maybe maybe not.

either way...it isnt as bad as ppl make it out to be. i mean...EVERYONE is going to see it sooner or later. why not adapt ppl to it earlier on? its only a bad thing because we make it out to be.

i agree with you tictac. nudity doesnt always involve porn. hell...they show animals gettin it on on the discovery channel. IMO thats a bit more disturbing then say a naked woman on a TV show. theres my 2 cents...

its because people who aren't so well endowed (you) are jealous of those who are (me) and you make up for that by passing laws forbidding me from strutting my stuff in public.

And for those who of you who take offense at my "unintelligent" post, realize it is the uptight people (you) who made the laws against nudity in the first place!!!

I feel your pain Lethargic the man is keeping us down.



On a serious note religious garbage has a lot to do with it.

So ILikeTictcs What do you believe is the reason that the us does not like nudity. I assumed public and on advertisements?

So having a kid watch a movie with guns, and killing is fine...but if their kid sees a boob, they are scarred for life? This country has some messed up, backwards morals.

Don't confuse nudity with sex either, thats totally different.

Whats wrong with nudity? We all have bodies, its natural. Watching someone get shot and killed on TV is not.

edit- edited for clarity

A movie shows killing and brutality, weapons and destruction, and it gets labeled PG-13. Those things are not normal. A movie shows a tittie and it gets slammed with an R rating. The nudity is normal...the killing and gruesomeness is not.

Play a rousing game of Death Count 6:00

watch the first 5 minutes of news and see what the death toll is.

American culture has made violence on TV an art form with noble deeds to be done by those who can. And then they take away an A&F catalog for fear that some 14yo will wrist a quicky to it.

You should answer the question ad contribute to the thread! or not post. Also calling a breast a titty shows your mentality to this subject. I think that most of the posts are off topic but mine at least gave an answer to the question!

sorry for not answering- I don't know the reason, hence i started the thread.

I see now that you had the presence of mind to edit your post before I said what I said. Who said violence is good for people to see? I do now have a problem with nudity but as with all things in the US people take them to extremes. And if you think that all you will see is that perfect 18 year old you have a crush on naked you are VERY wrong!

[sneakyhacker420]

i have nothing against female nudity... unless its some kinda planet of the apes shyt... in that case, keep it off my damn TV!


and as far as males go... i simply don't feel comfortable seeing a mans junk hangin out when im watching TV or walking down the street
