I think this XKCD says more about this, eh, fear daemon and how to respond to it then I can ever imagine.
Somehow this depresses me. o.o
The first half of the rant is depressing (and a bit sad because it is probably more true than I’d like to admit), the second part isn’t.

This is something I’ve been wondering about for quite some time. As a shy and easily blushing person I should probably in theory understand this idea of having warnings about nudity. But I don’t. Sure, gutter brain inside and all that “deviant” cultural upbringing in Sweden might explain some of it. Only some though, as everyone who’s visited will know, we don’t run around crazy naked in the snow and we’re rather private.
So I have to ask: why this rampant panic about the naked body? I mean, everyone got one and you’ve seen it before. It shouldn’t be a surprise how humans look. I really want to know: why the insistence of large warnings about something everyone got and have seen?
Addition: it wasn’t my intention to sound rhetorical. I don’t get the warning. I don’t get why people get upset when they see someone naked. I really really don’t.
