side note: i found out that san francisco allows you to be naked in public as long as you place a barrier between your naked ass and the bus seat. i had no idea. they really let you ... be you ... in san fran i guess. hahaha.

ok, so does anyone care to partake? would any of you go naked if it were legal where you live? also, less importantly, do you think wearing clothing is a moral decision?

i'll go first. as a motorcycle rider, i think of protection first as why i wear them. can't imagine hitting the ground with no denim separating my knees and the pavement.
Well, I don't think that I'd use the term "moral" but I believe that decency and modesty both in clothing and in mind, is an important thing.
For a wise man once said;"Dress as you are, or be as you dress."
For I believe that what you choose to wear outside is indeed a part of you, it defines you, or you define it.
So yes, it can also be a standard of morality if you want it to be.
