Does Western culture need to catch up with regard to nudity??

Norm and Sophie dig into how Western culture may just be a ways behind the rest of the world when it comes to nudity. In this episode they look at Aileen Goodson's book chapter, "Nudity in Ancient and Modern Cultures". It examines historical and cultural perspectives on nudity. The text traces the acceptance of nudity in various ancient societies, including ancient Egypt, Greece, and India, contrasting it with the puritanical views that emerged in Western societies during the Middle Ages and the Victorian era. It also explores the use of nudity as a form of protest and the connection between body freedom and the status of women. The excerpt also contrasts the differing attitudes toward nudity in the Orient with those of the West.
