I'm not a fan either, but I think the point is more that other cultures, and even earlier US generations, didn't see it as creepy.
But some of those generations would be creeped out by women wearing pants and short skirts, men wearing jeans everywhere, and people talking openly about sex and menstruation.
- dpark 9y agoCultural expectations have certainly shifted. I just don't think "prudish" is the appropriate word. No one, e.g., thinks it's prudish to want privacy when taking a shit. The fact that nudity is involved isn't, to me at least, sufficient to label it "prudish".
- goodbye- 9y agoPerhaps trying to defend yourself with the example of "taking a shit" is orthogonal to taking a shower.
