Shouldn't we hide parts of our body if for nothing else to keep them as objects of desire? If you see breasts everyday after a while, probably a long while, they won't be as much of a turn on. Mystery is a wonderful thing, a woman in lingerie can be just as if not more exciting than a naked woman in my opinion. Nudity isn't bad but I think the lack of it everywhere in our culture keeps it more exciting. Plus, nudity is connected with desire is it not? It's normal for a man or woman to desire seeing a naked man or woman based on their sexual preferance. It is not natural to want or need to hurt or kill other people. Maybe people think it's safe to offer up gratuitous amounts of something people don't crave rather than let them overindulge their real thirst. And with my second edit, What about Japan? They allow nudity but pubic hair is off limits. Odd. Different cultures and country have different taboos and I think that's good, keeps us different and lets us search out different things we like from different places. As long as it's not made illegal I'm fine with the way it's viewed. The thing that really pisses me off is ratings but that's another story. (Grand Theft Auto is unplayable because of sex and violence but go ahead and bring your kids to see Terminator 2 or let them rent Texas Chainsaw Massacre). On an almost but not quite semi-related note I saw an interview with Lucy Lu (sp) where she was talking about how the Chinese are enticed by the neck and wrists and really found that interesting.
