Why do so many people have such an issue with nudity?

I like the colour red

Especially here on GaG. I don't know if any here will remember, but I had a couple of my nude pictures displayed before, and some weird, demented anonymous pink member decided to insult me because of it, saying things like "You have an ugly, stinky body! Get rid of those disgusting photos whore".
I was left wondering why the stupid bitch even gave a damn. What IS the problem here? We're all born this way aren't we? No one comes into the world wearing a tuxedo. It's just bizarre, the attitude many have.
They're just idiots. Try to ignore them.

They might have a point, but I can't figure out what it is.
Vote B
Yes, you should cover up, because the natural human body is 'sinful', because... some musty old book says so, and I can't actually think for myself.
Vote C
Other. Will explain in the comments section.

  • I have no problem with it. Never have. Literally many thousands of people have seen me nude (in person). The only problem I see is where it happens. There are many people on GAG for reasons other than sexual reasons, and many of them are easily upset buy nudity. Plus, since there are so many young people on here, GAG does not want to get in trouble for exposing minors to sexual pictures. However, the rules GAG has allows bare ass, and bare breasts if nipples and areolas are not shown. Sometimes even some of those get taken down.
    As I said, I have no problem with it, and if you do post the earlier mentioned pictures again, I hope to see them.

  • Ehh really just idiots, or maybe jealous don't worry hugs

    • I kind of feel the same also, showing body is just normal through I do like women in clothes better since it says something about personality and finesse in terms of taste.

  • For Americans maybe.

    Nudity is rather normal in Germany. I'm Bavarian, conservative, don't show much skin myself, and it's not a big deal to me or most people around me.

    • Yes, Americans. I've noticed they tend to be ridiculously prudish and sanctimonious when it comes to anything even remotely healthy and pleasurable. I really do wish they would all just grow the hell up!

    • Yes they are... i was raised clothing optional and now raise my family same

    • @Singlebimom Good! :)

  • Funny enough those same people who shame others for nudity are the same ones who spend hours on pornhub

    • Yes lol

    • It’s even statistically significant. Penthouse et. al. published their sales numbers, showing more sales in red states. Repressed sexuality is definitely a thing there.

  • Some people just. have a proublem with how they look themselves even some people who are gorgeous

    • Yes it is most Americans. And I wish they would grow the hell up

  • There is a no nudity policy on this site. There are kids on here.

    • Okay, but that doesn't really address the issue. For example, I've noticed that films with excessive violence aren't treated as harshly by the censors, even though violence is wrong, destructive and causes endless misery and suffering, whereas nudity causes... what? Erections? "Kids" shouldn't be subjected to seeing violence, but no one seems to care about that. Why the double-standard? I should have made it clearer that I wasn't specifically talking about GaG, but just used it as an example of what I'm going on about.

    • Ohhh I see. Well our society has hyper-sexualized nudity and glorified violence. What did we expect?

    • This lady has a problem she screenshots nudes

  • Not here in Europe.

    you go in a sauna in some places, expect to see naked breasts.

    I've even seen guys wearing shorts to the all male showers before when working with US forces, weird.

    Naked is just naked, it’s not sexual.

  • The only people who don't mind nudity are those so attractive, they think they're hot themselves. Human nudity breaks down into two forms: Hideously disgusting or someone you'd want to f*ck. You can try to argue "the nude form is nothing to be ashamed of" all you want, but we're socially taught to think in either one of those two cases. Either gross or sexy. And most people are gross naked (me included; hell, ESPECIALLY me! Ever seen a human rancor before?)

    I'm an American (and Korean inhabitant) though, and nudity isn't promoted where I'm from. Again, it's usually only people who believe they have beautiful bodies, who have no problem with nudity. I GURANTEE you, you wouldn't want to see me naked. You'd change your stance on it, if you did. But also, GAG isn't a site for nudity or explicit sexual content.

  • I like being nude... no problems here, but I think this site doesn’t allow it. Find another site to post if u feel strongly about it

  • It's so funny how people can look at somebody and judge them and what they look like the outside of our bodies is just the outside of our bodies the person on the inside this who we truly are when we pass away our body our Temple whatever falls to the ground and our energy our solar spirit and everything we've done in this world or even said in this world gets gathered that by our energy which is a little ball a little orb of Light walk towards the light and it goes it takes everything with it wherever we go next it's a big test the outside of our body is a big test when people get together are they calling in love instead of understanding who the person really is on the inside that's where their true beauty is they look to the outside and they want to judge that person buy something that they have no control over here is their jeans their DNA but that person on the inside is he's a beautiful or ugly because that's where I really comes from no place else for me all bodies are beautiful I don't mind being nude I mean the list cuz I have on the better off I feel but if people are judging you for your body they have no idea who they even are so I just smiled and said yeah whatever and just keep on walking

  • post more on gag!! why not, they trollin or jealous you're fuckable

  • Wearing clothes and covering yourself has been the norm in most cultures throughout time, we can say it's like an instict to cover yourself and consider your naked body as something intimate. And by you I don't mean "you" but as the example for most of us. It has always been natural in society to wear clothes and see others wearing clothes, why do you think it's weird to want to keep it that way now?

    • And it's wrong how she talked to you, but we shouldn't be pushed to see someone naked when we don't want to.

  • I really like your profile pic though...

  • I would think it reflects on some people's personal mortals, boundaries and comfort zones, if they don't feel comfortable showing their naked body, they don't think anyone else should. It cones down to the short sightedness of people and their preconceived notions about nudity and sexuality. Society generally tells us that nudity and sexuality are linked, and lets face it, these days people seem not to have the ability to think for themselves or make their own choices as to what they believe in.

  • I read an article decades ago about the acceptance of nudity versus violence in the United States. It’s supposed to be the last remnants of the frontier life/mentality, where even young children get to see the killing of the savage redskin while being told to be pure and virtuous for God. The Bible was probably the only book in such houses.

  • Worry about yourself. That’s what I’d be thinking about they’re comments. Like why the fuck do u even have an opinion if it’s all gnarly.

    • What?

    • Whoever said all the nasty comments about your photos I mean. I just don’t get why they’d feel the need to be like that. If they didn’t have anything nice to say they should’ve kept it to themselves. Doesn’t help their case that you’re not ‘nasty’ or ‘ugly’ like they claim anyway. They should just worry about themselves.

    • Thanks. I wasn't quite sure what you were saying before.

  • there are rules on nudity on g@g because we have underage users here but that said, there is no need for any user to be insulting on here and ofcourse you have the option to report stuff but also to remove offensive posts on your own questions or threads. you can also always contact a moderator if you have issues. i hope this helps

  • Some people are just jealous or insecure about themselves. Others are just too sensitive about what others think.

    Hence why it's always good to ensure you're in the proper category when posting such things

  • If u r comftable bein naki dont worry a out eht othrs think.

    • I agree. :)

  • I don't know, troll

  • I don't know why some people have a problem with nudity. They probably only associate it with sex. As a nudist, I'm totally fine with seeing other people nude. The nude female body is a beautiful thing. I would be happy to see your photos.

  • Got me! It's not like we all don't already know what everyone else has!! What's the big secret? You know I've got a dick and you know what they look like (generally speaking). You've got tits and a cunt and I know what they look like, (generally speaking). And, if you go to a museum, you'll see ALL KINDS of statues and paintings of completely naked people and THAT''S beautiful but, an actual naked person standing in front of you, or a picture of one, is ugly? HOW?

  • Ignore conservative pricks.

    Do what you want. If this makes you happy, so be it! :D
