Really? Have you been to the Middle East, or is your definition of "the world" a handful of western European countries?
- omginternets 10y agoFair enough. I was referring to the first world, and specifically the Western world. The point remains. The US is a very special case in this respect. I would further argue that even with the middle east involved, such an ascetic rejection of nudity is hardly the norm across the world. But that's still addressing a tangential (and, I think, pedantic) point.

- pessimizer 10y agoJust because many other cultures have a prudishness about nudity doesn't make our particular prudishness about nudity a universal value, and ours isn't similar at all to the Middle East's. Our censorship arrangement is uniquely our own.
