I have seen such a strange view of nudity from younger people. At the gym that I go to, all the under 25 people change under a towel. (not just in front of me, but anyone) They can wrap it around their waist and and do a complete change and then remove the towel. Some serious hang-ups going on here. I recall swimming nude as a teenager with both male and female friends present.
Are these those famous kids whose ideas of sex are from porn and not reality? Could be the same phenom.

In some ways I have to agree. Even AntiM snarked before the page turned. I know I haven't been on here a very long time, but thats a first I've seen.

I don't know that the attitude that attractive people have more worth than unattractive people is exclusive to the 20somethings out there. In fact, I find that I notice attractive folks, clothed or no, receiving special treatment at Burning Man far more often than I see it in my everyday life. I've long joked with my campmates that a cute pair of tits is your ticket to a front row seat for almost any show there. At least where straight males are involved, anyways.

I don't mean to imply that if you're not perfect that the event is not the place for you, or that you won't feel included, or whatever. Just something I've noticed happening that's developed into a pet peeve of mine about the burn.

Someone at Alien Love Nest was mean enough to me one year to make me cry. A female, and not particularly cute or skinny herself. Just drunk enough to be cruel.

Their cute tits eventually sag, and the gals find themselves at the back of the line. This is when they fall prey to Botox, Spanx, Jenny Craig, and Swift Lifts. Sad, huh? As I secretly wish I had enough money to rid my throat and face of my wattle and jowls. Silly, silly women.

My concern with being naked is being naked and still meeting people. How can i be naked and walk up to someone and start a conversation without it being "Hey hey check it out, COCK!"

Ha, my first year a friend and I were stopped by a very kind and soft spoken older gentleman who wanted to take a picture with us because we were "such tall and strong young lads, with such pretty eyes." He was totally nude with an enormous half chubbed cock. I guess that's one case of nudity on the playa where I wish the guy just would have worn some pants, or a sock, or put a book over it or something.

OMG, I was sitting here eating breakfast...emphasis on was. Laughing and food do not mix. Where's those laptop wipes again?

And yeah the art cars seemed to be populated by age discriminating snobs. The only art cars that have been worth a shit iIMHO was Playa Air and Captain Goddammit's awesome yacht. Many of the others have been less than pleasant experiences. Public transportation? Yeah, right.

Precooked vac-sealed meals. I have a menu list for my crew to go through and make final decisions since we decided that I would cook all the meals and all would be Gluten-free. I have a lot of William S. books with vegatarian recipes including a really good sweet potato hashbrown dish.

What they need to understand is that fat, saggy old people are just young people who had the good fortune of not dying.

Controversial dating site Beautifulpeople.com—the one that kicked off 5,000 "fatties" for gaining weight over the holidays—has started a "virtual sperm bank" to share the genetic material of its attractive clientele. Both members and non-members can use the new fertility forum to contact people they'd like to get some genetic material from, Mashable reports.

Although a company press release references eggs, the specifics describe only the sperm option. Founder Robert Hintze says he planned to make the fertility service open only to members, but he realized that "everyone—including ugly people—would like to bring good looking children in to the world, and we can’t be selfish with our attractive gene pool."



Dating Site Creates Online Sperm and Egg Bank

Who doesn’t love a pretty baby? According to one company, the better question might be who doesn’t want one? The dating Web site BeautifulPeople.com (yes, it’s what it sounds like) has recently launched a fertility-introduction service to help make this a better-looking world. The site, which touts itself as the largest community of beautiful people with more than 600,000 members around the globe, says their virtual fertility forum will allow attractive donors to find (or help) someone who matches their “procreation interests.â€

This whole thread leads me to speculate about evolutionary pressure to be beautiful. If only the attractive people get to mate, then why are we not all attractive?

Then there is the discarding of traits that are no longer useful, like blind cave animals. If being attractive is so much more important than being smart or kind or honest, then why are we not all stupid, lying, mean, but clearly beautiful?

Becoming older is something for some to fear, I suppose, and therefore be in denial. No wonder they don't want to look. Although my face shows my age more than my butt, so maybe I should wear a mask and be otherwise naked?

Inquiring minds want to know. Beautiful skin doesn't care.

Yummm, I wish I had some blueberries, just the good old stuff from the Quaker box. I have to eat all this oatmeal so I can get the cholestrol down for all the bacon I'm going to eat at the end of August!

Back on to the topic. One of the best BM pictures I think I've ever seen was from 2008 (I think) It was a father & son. I'd guess that dad was probably in his late 40's/early 50's with the typical 40's saggy parts those of us in that age group are experiencing, son was in his early 20's, both were walking around nude, with the exception of signs around thier necks that said "Before" and "After"
