Clothing has existed for centuries, the majority of cultures and societies expect its wear in public situations. However,

No.  I doubt it. 


If people can go out of their way to dress stupid, they are not going to grow the ability to determine taste just because they are nekkid.

Possibly, or people could be more accepting of all body shapes and sizes for the very same reason. 

"No, I don't believe so."  If you look at the races of people that presently wear no or nearly no clothes, many of these people adorn their bodies with  beads, bracelets, tattoos and the like, but physically speaking seem to live with what they've got ... just like most of us do. They come in all shapes and sizes ... just like we do. 

You ask an interesting and complex question, Randy D.

So, "Let us first of all consider, my brethren, healthy shame and what is the relation of clothing to it.......?"


{ To see the implied joke I am making, here is an excerpt from the book Heretics by GK Chesterton.  It is available at  

https://www.gutenberg.org/files/470/470-h/470-h.htm  }

Suppose that a great commotion arises in the street about something, let us say a lamp-post, which many influential persons desire to pull down. A grey-clad monk, who is the spirit of the Middle Ages, is approached upon the matter, and begins to say, in the arid manner of the Schoolmen, "Let us first of all consider, my brethren, the value of Light. If Light be in itself good—" At this point he is somewhat excusably knocked down. All the people make a rush for the lamp-post, the lamp-post is down in ten minutes, and they go about congratulating each other on their unmediaeval practicality. But as things go on they do not work out so easily. Some people have pulled the lamp-post down because they wanted the electric light; some because they wanted old iron; some because they wanted darkness, because their deeds were evil. Some thought it not enough of a lamp-post, some too much; some acted because they wanted to smash municipal machinery; some because they wanted to smash something. And there is war in the night, no man knowing whom he strikes. So, gradually and inevitably, to-day, to-morrow, or the next day, there comes back the conviction that the monk was right after all, and that all depends on what is the philosophy of Light. Only what we might have discussed under the gas-lamp, we now must discuss in the dark.


As I said---interesting and complex.

A lovely thought-provoking post! Fun to imagine.. however, my thinking is based on naturism and nudism... They believe that all bodies are acceptable and that we don't need to be so hung up on how we look, our shape, size etc... you see all sorts.. old, wrinkly saggy people and young, fit people..  The idea being that the bod is natural...  SO my thinking is.. a) no they probably wouldn't be all that bod conscious and b) we do have to consider that people naturally are all shapes and sizes and once we are old then we really aren't going to as attractive as we once were... 

I am thinking too... fairly shallowly... that women generally speaking do do better with bras if they are other than very small breasted... if you look at what happens when women never wear a bra.. they do tend to end up with very floppy boobs... Perhaps they are still attractive to some but perky they ain't :P 

i think its good that people are wearing clothes, i wouldnt want to see everyone naked
