    Are clothes necessary though? If you live in a warm climate, you could literally walk naked and it’d be fine.

          I mean have you seen a redhead on a beach, they probably reflect the same amount as snow. Might burn your eyes if you stare long enough, they will probably turn into a lobster first.

      That is absolutely not true and clothes are doe ore then termal protection. Clothes are highly important for reduction in exposure to bugs, they also help limit direct exposure to sum UV. Sure there are places where you can go without clothing and be relatively okay, but to be totally honest you used one example for very specific locales. Just because it “isn’t necessary” in one specific locale doesn’t mean they are a necessary part of the human experience.

      Emphasis on the ‘if you’re in a warm climate’ part. But it’s true, our society has a stigma against nudity even in circumstances where clothes aren’t necessary.
