I don’t think so and i believe that the equating of Unclothedness with sex is one of the reasons for the recent (as far as I am concerned) ridiculous issue some people have with women breast feeding their babies in public.

Unclothedness leads to sexual harassment and or abuse: I disagree vehemently with this. The Unclothedness of a person does not rob another of his or her sense of reason. This act of placing the responsibility of one’s sanity on the shoulders of another (and it is the woman that suffer this the most) is a debasing act that reduces the man to a creature of instinct who needs to be kept in line by not “stirring him up”. Sexual abuse and harassment starts and ends with the perpetrator. We are responsible for ourselves. We all have brains after all. I believe that it shows great depth of character (and insight) when we consider every man and woman, no matter how they are dressed as people who are worthy of respect and honor.

Nu.dity is contextual. You can express it in art, in science, on a nudist beach, among indigenous tribes, but as soon as you take it upon yourself to walk nake.d on the streets of New York or Lagos in the name of freedom of expression or liberation, I will call the damn cops.
No, I don't want to see any random person's naked body.
Be naked in your house and express yourself there.

I'm totally against condemnation but doesn't mean that you should shut your eyes to what's wrong, There's a reason why everyone act the way they do .

@number 4, I've kind of thought of that too. If God made us nayked and meant for us to be nayked, did he make a mistake initially?

I hope you will choose an "ajebutter" environment.Poor people in poor environment usually don't mind their business.

Okay, that got me cracked up

Besides, me thinks, there's a difference between Shame and Shy.
Most of us admire ladies who show off the belly buttons and flat tummies, but we despise ourselves to even think in such manner because we somehow figure "our bodies aren't good enough"

I want to go against that trend.

1) Unclothedness is Pornography: It is true that Unclothedness is an element in Pornography but I will argue that the same way we a fork used in a murder does not make it a weapon of mass destruction (it remains a kitchen utensil) the element of Unclothedness in pornography does not make it pornography. I consider Pornography to be an exploitation and abuse of Unclothedness (and sex) rather than a true display of it.

2) Unclothedness is sexual: It is true that Unclothedness is a part of sexual expression but does that apply to every context. When a person takes a bath, sleeps in the Unclad, goes to the gynecologist or poses to be drawn or painted, Unclothedness is involved but is the context sexual? I don’t think so and i believe that the equating of Unclothedness with sex is one of the reasons for the recent (as far as I am concerned) ridiculous issue some people have with women breast feeding their babies in public.

3) Unclothedness leads to sexual harassment and or abuse: I disagree vehemently with this. The Unclothedness of a person does not rob another of his or her sense of reason. This act of placing the responsibility of one’s sanity on the shoulders of another (and it is the woman that suffer this the most) is a debasing act that reduces the man to a creature of instinct who needs to be kept in line by not “stirring him up”. Sexual abuse and harassment starts and ends with the perpetrator. We are responsible for ourselves. We all have brains after all. I believe that it shows great depth of character (and insight) when we consider every man and woman, no matter how they are dressed as people who are worthy of respect and honor.

4) Unclothedness is a sign of moral decadence and is disapproved by God: I can’t speak for other religions (as I haven’t studied them) but if i use the account of creation in the Bible (and if we take it literally), the fact that God created Adam and Eve Unclad seems to paint a very different picture about how God sees Unclothedness. In fact shame about the Unclad body (and subsequent clothing) only came in when Adam and Eve partook of the tree that God explicitly warned them not to touch. Hmmmmm…

5) Unclothedness is a sign of insecurity and a need to garner attention: Could this be true? Most certainly but does it apply in EVERY case? From my experience, that is a no. This is because some people (both male and female) have very different views of the human body. They see their bodies as works of art to be celebrated and displayed proudly and have no need to get “attention or affirmation” from others as they are secure in their personal beauty and even when the person is using Unclothedness to get attention, “slut shaming” is not the solution because we have no idea where that person is coming from. We do not know their past. We do not know what they have seen and or been through. I believe compassion, curiosity and a listening ear will heal where judgment will only exacerbate.

What is the point of the above? Is it a call for everyone to get Unclad? No (you do you). It is rather a call for us to look deeper and re-think what we have grown up believing and to refrain from casting judgment and condemnation on others that hold different views and mindsets from us. So here is a little suggestion: rather than condemn or call a person names, ASK questions. If possible get to KNOW the person (you might just learn something that you can integrate with your own intelligence and better you life with),SHOW compassion and if you cannot do any of these, then IGNORE and go on with your life.

This doesn't even follow, do people bath on the street or lie naked on the 3rd mainland bridge... ssurely, you do know that when people are talking about unclothedness, they are referring to public nudity abi... nobody cares what you do in the comfort of ur room, we all go naked to the bathroom



This argument has been killed and buried ni oh... Are you saying that careless display of cash does not lead to robbery? Pray tell, why do you put a lock on ur door, or close ur shop when ur going home, what informs ur decision? You might just as well leave. Ur door ajar, afterall it all begins and ends with the perpetrators...



This one is worse, Jesus came into the world right? The bible never ssaid he walked around n@kkid... before the forbidden fruit, Adam and Eve had no consciousness... so there was no unclothedness to bother about in the first place... hello, this iss the 21st century, who comes up with dis kind of analogy anyway? JEE7


Anyone. That aspires to prove he is not insecure is indeed insecure... (food for thought)...



Now what the hell is dis?? This whole writeup is really a struggle....

krusdamax:
Don't you think this singular act is akin to gradually losing ones sense of worth and human dignity? Come to think of it, there is purpose for every thing. How would you feel if Serena Williams attend your dinner putting on her tennis ball kit? Or Michael Tyson back then honors your birthday bash on his boxing gloves! Man is different from other animals cos he has the mental capacity for reasoning and discernment between right and wrong. We fail as a specie when lower animals understand purpose and keep to it while we misplace and misguide the purpose/worth of our existence and debase ourselves mindlessly. My thought though!

MizMyColi:


Please check out this website and see things for yourself babes. www.herself.com

How could anyone call those girls sluts.
I actually see perfection!

Most times, when people go all out to post nudes, they're making subiminal statements.
For me, it's one of the highest forms of self/bodily acceptance.

My views tho.

cococandy:
This does take guts though.

Serious Freaking Guts!
Oyibo pipu shaaaaa


Well, whatever rocks their boat.

Did you read their interviews?
If you click on the picture you can read.

Think of it this way.

When God created man, he was naked.
Did God provide clothes?
No.

They did something wrong, something that took away their sense of innocence.

Wisdom remains profitable to direct.

The truth of the matter is that some of us dare not wear what serena wears on that court. We would rather wear long tights because we think we are too yam-legged or because we think our skin is so full of flaws.

This writeup is not about the perfect wear to an occasion, it's about living and let live.
Allow others to freely express themselves in a way they choose.

People who expose certain parts of their body have a reason, others don't.
Enough of the sick judgementalism already.

It's your perception.
If you choose to see people who pose nudely as debased, good.
Not everyone sees them that way.

I actually feel a sense of inspiration when I see pictures like this. http://herself.com/ They are making a statement. They are tired of apologising for the kind of bodies they have and who they are.

Then I actually feel a sense of disgust when I see stuff like this http://ww4.viewpornstars.com/gallery11/Hardcore-Porn-site/7viewpornstarshm9377089.jpg

Whatever anyone thinks or feels is their business.
That much I can allude to.

krusdamax:


Be that as it may, you are entitled to what you allude to. But none of the above can pass a social repugnancy test. I dare you to post your own picture typifying any of those pics that appeals to you. Your sense of worth won't allow you do that. At least not here on NL. So where lies the soundness of such, subject to zero sense of prejudice? Lol.
