I don’t understand what people get out of prudery. What’s the payoff? It seems all downside to me.

Luckily, most of my friends are not prudes. A close friend of mine, we were asking each other “Would you…” questions as friends do. And she asked me, “Would you go to a nude beach?” And I said, “Of course I would” because, well, that’s self-evident.

So I asked her the same question and she said, “When you taking me?” Heh.

The key: she’s not an American and has no buy-in nor reason to partake of the liberal American prude-fest that is occurring now, for reasons ever-unfathomable to me.
