Where I live even full nudity would not be considered obscene at all, unless something sexual was going on.
However it is becoming more and more the case. With American platforms and media, their learned attitude of being overly prude also made their way here. Though I'm not sure whether "prude" is the right word to describe the crippling self-consciousness many experience when faced with nude humanity.
I suspect it has be actively instilled by your parents and society around you while you are still young, or you won't ever have it.
- andrewflnr 6y agoAs an American, I don't think it's "crippling self-consciousness", we're just trained to think of nudity as sexually provocative in itself.
