I've read analyses that say that fasion started not with hiding the body but with penis gourds and other sorts of showing off. Of course, in hunter gatherer tribes there was a real limit to the amount of wealth one could have and if you could put things together with style, it showed something about it. Steven Pinker might even call it a sign of evolutionary merit.Box Burner wrote: The real issue is clothing. Way back in the dawn of time some idiot made himself up to be a great high muckity muck because he was able to clothe himself all year round, while the poor guy who had a family to take care of could only afford to clothe his family during the cold winter months.
I'm all for getting them cut down to size, even though as a bead maker, I do adornment.Box Burner wrote:We should all go around naked just so we could stick it to the fashion industry.

Heli--you may not expect this from me, but I don't think that being interested in sex is shallow, or even being interested in women as sexual beings is shallow. I think shallowness is not being able to admit that women are complicated, have their own needs and agendas, and that taking care of themselves is thier first duty is shallow.
I'm not expressing it well.
Of course, remembering that just because a woman 'isn't your type' doesn't mean that she is any less worthy of love, power, admiration, freedom, food, and respect goes a long way towards proving the depth of your character.
Just because in many ways I am a modern liberal, doesn't mean that I think these issues are simple, or that it's possible to remake biological dispositions at will.

Nothing wrong with adornment or clothes. But they should be fun and not for hiding something that is suppoesed to be "evil and dirty". Nudity is natural and is niether of those things. And the variety of shapes and sizes is part of the fun. A little decoration is sometimes just an expression of ones self. Ans sometimes just for fun.
