Children are ok with nudity. I saw nudity as a shild and never had a problem with it, I automatically knew that is what people really look like. Also, children who were brought up a naturists learn better and are smarter. I have read that on a documentary thingie.
I sometimes wish I'd been brought up among people (especially women) who showed off their bodies like they show them off these days. That way I'd probably not see all these cleavage and thigh shows as mildly pornographic, so there'd be a lot more women that I wouldn't have to write off as unsuitable as partners. But I can't change the past and for some reason I can't seem to change my attitude either.....I doubt that I'm ever going to see nudity as just ordinary - for me it's sexual and it always will be. Not that I'm saying it's the absolute truth, just that for me some things will probably always light up the sexual part of my brain.

The memories are actually so painful that despite the luxury of being able to hide behind a username and an avatar, I don't even want to post them here (with asterisks)
Can anyone else relate to this
(back on toplc) - yes I can. I was called a couple of things at school that I'd never reveal just in case some tosser started it all up again. The worst was a childish perversion of my surname that a teacher coined especially for me. All he did was to cut the name in half and find synonyms for the two words he had thus created - more hateful than witty, rather like him.
