Quote - Having lived in Japan, Hong Kong, and traveling over a large part of Europe and a few other places, it constantly amazes me that America is so tight assed and prudish that nudity bothers ANYONE. Go to Europe and you'll see nudity on TV and in commercials and casual nudity in many places. They simply don't concern themselves with it. But America has this obsession with the concept that nudity is 'dirty' and will cause the complete downfall of modern civilization. I mean, man, get over it.

Come to my city. It's been legal for several years for women to walk around even in the heart of downtown, completely topless :)

"It is good to see ourselves as others see us. Try as we may, we are never
able to know ourselves fully as we are, especially the evil side of us.
This we can do only if we are not angry with our critics but will take in good
heart whatever they might have to say." - Ghandi
