I sometimes wonder, as an American, if nudity holds its taboo so that it has marketing power and as a way to hold more control over society. It's taboo so that people think of it more sexually so that they can use sex as leverage in society.
And then for religion it seems it's used to entice marriage. So the taboo of it helps solidify a common structure that easier for governing forces to control.
It all seems naive and silly. You have some people that see a boob or other body part and act like it was a violent rape. And then the blame the shower as if they are mentally ill... When really it's psychologically messed up and unnatural to be afraid of nudity.
And now they wonder why people are so kinked up and I think their fear plays a huge role in creating those more extreme kinks.
