I agree with you, if they want their camps and beaches, let them have them. I thought Michael was just interested in the philosophical underpinnings of decency laws, which I believe still exist.......

Joan, Joan, Joan -- Michael M has been nowhere near this subject. He suspects he may be at the top of your list of usual suspects.

I think nudity is distracting. Often inappropriately.

I've greatly enjoyed the baths in places like Baden Baden where mixed sex attendance can greatly improve your ability to solve complex mathematical problems in your head.

Nudity in a natural setting is totally OK with me but, even in such settings, I think it best to have clothing and no clothing areas so all can enjoy.

Complete nudity in a developed situation seems a bit absurd. The upholstery on your couch, the chair in the restaurant, the seat on the airplane would take on some characteristics of your underpants.

Farting would become felonious -- perhaps a "three blasts and you're out" deal.

And, IMO, if all the people were nude all the time, it would take a lot of the fun out of some of the people being nude some of the time.

Nice to "see" you again.
