Why can't we all go naked? You can. But ...


Ripped2775 in the magazine section asked Why can't we all go naked? This was my answer.

Experience has taught me that we can't all be naked. Because:

1 Even in summer in the tropics if you go out without a jacket later in the day the sun goes down or you enter air con and get chilled and ill.

2 You get bitten by flies and mosquitos.

3 People mess up the chairs. I don't have to tell you.

4 Men want to hide their erections.

5 Women want to hide their periods.

6 Going<b> barefoot </font></b>exposes you to cracked heels, worm infestation, verrucas, and treading on nails.

7 , pregnant women and the elderly are incontinent some of the time or all of the time.

8 Clothes do protect you from being providing you are not trapped by a weapon. I know. A drugged guy got me in his grip but had to release me so I could take my clothes off and I ran away. The more clothes you are wearing, the more delay and the more chance that somebody else will interrupt or give you time to think of a distraction or defence.

9 You only have to look at the ads for support to know that women like bras, and bottom uplift and tummy tuck. And they also worry about cellulite.

10 Finally, we are told there is global warming. We like suntans but are increasingly concerned about sunscreen and cancer rays. I was very upset when one of my in the care of somebody else got badly burned after a day at a wave pool in Phoenix, Arizona. He was in such pain that he screamed when anybody jogged him or touched him. When I go in the sun I cover up as much as possible.

11 Nakedness is lovely in bed. Until the covers fall off in mid-winter.

12 If you look at people working in the fields, for example in China, they are covered up and their heads are covered by hats to protect them from the elements.

13 I went to a nudist colony in France. You soon took your clothes off because you were too conspicuous with them on. But the novelty wore off after a day. You don't realise how much protection clothes offer. Chairs in the outdoor cafe were uncomfortable and made marks on your bottom. As for falling against a hedge, or slipping on rocks!

14 In the supermarket leaning over the frozen compartments to buy ice creams and food I thought my spare parts would turn to icicles.

15 I just hope all the dogs in your neighbourhood are leashed. A friend of mine was in his friend's house and woke up to find the family licking him.

16 Sorry to be a pessimist. But even the nearly naked people in the jungle wear grass skirts and bracelets and neck rings and jewellery and in Papua New Guinea the men wear ...!

People who grew up poor complain that they didn't have shoes.

And when you take off your coat, or dress, or dressing gown, you don't need to wear anything underneath, at home. So why are so many women wearing corsets? And stockings? And thongs?
