3. in a culturally diverse group, who would suggest something like a spontaneous nude dip? Nobody, to avoid embarrassing someone, just in case, even if in fact every9ne involved would be perfectly up to it. Things like that are far more likely to happen in a group where everybody comes from the same village.
- EdwardDiego 4y agoIn a group of any kind, why do you presume that "nudity at the beach is awesome" would be a value held by 100% of group members? Drawing a really long bow there tbh.
- usrusr 4y agoIn a homogenous group discovering who is and who isn't could easily pass as a playful endeavor, whereas in a diverse group it's more likely to be seen as a shocking insensitivity. Not just by those affected (who might very well be perfectly absent) but also by those who think someone might be affected.

- gernb 4y agoEasy, go to Finland where the Fins expect to get nude with everyone in mix sex groups. So, imagine 10 fins. Someones says "let's sauna!" and likely all 10 will be like "yea!". Now replace 5 of them with 5 muslims (or other group who find public nudity offensive). Now propose the same activity "let's sauna!" You've just made 5 people uncomfortable as they now have to decline your invitation.
- Chris2048 4y agoWhy wouldn't young Finns with similar values stick together in social groups?
- rglullis 4y agoBecause that is not something so important and polarizing to the point of creating tribes?
- Chris2048 4y agoIt doesn't need to be polarising, people don't form social groups with everyone they meet, mere common interests can cause people to gravitate to each other.
- rglullis 4y agoYou are talking about young people in a real-world scenario involving physical interactions, not some internet forum or any other social setting where groups self-select. I doubt that people will be basing their relationships based on such a secondary aspect of their cultural values. Where they live, their close family, where they go to school, what type of activities they do after school and what type of activities and relationships their parents have... all of that is a lot more relevant to determine their social circle than "strong affinity around the interest for skinny dipping"
- Chris2048 4y ago> not some internet forum or any other social setting where groups self-select IRL social groups also self select. Do you hang out with everyone you went to school with? No, there is selection. > where they go to school, what type of activities they do after school and what type of activities and relationships their parents have.. all of which are effected by culture and religion. > strong affinity around the interest for skinny dipping Social interaction with the opposite sex, consumption of alcohol, and other social-meeting-place-determining are others. And if Finns have strong church community (I'm not sure they do) that might be another. The original example suggested social groups would suddenly have 50% Muslim membership, enough to stop a bunch of people who wanted to do something from doing it because it would cause so much strife in their social group. This is unrealistic. Is also the case that young Finning Muslim immigrant aren't necessarily going to influence their native (European/Finnish) counterparts as much as the other way around - maybe more Muslims will try skinny dipping.
