Why do we wear clothes?
- dudeanon842 14y agoThis article is a horrendous mash attempting to use genetics and sexual selection to explain conservative dress standards, because that's the way god wanted it. Preference for clothes was not sexually selected for at all. Many communities exist and thrive with many different standards for dress. It is purely a cultural phenomenon. Adhering to the culture of the day, being one with the group, that was selected for. Hipsters in western countries, conservative amish dress, almost naked african tribes, their cultural standards vary drastically but the things they all share are their genes and the desire to be accepted by the rest of their community.
