[Paleopsych] nudity

[Michael Christopher]

>>If a strong, confident woman is willing to pose nude
(and stand up to a potential backlash), then she must
be very tough indeed. The seeming contradiction of the
tough Playmate may rewrite the concept of male 
patriarchy.<<

--Nudity can signify many things... innocence, shame,
nature, manipulation... what it signifies depends on
who is observing, who is naked, and who is
interpreting the observer's reactions. Often,
different subcultures find it impossible to agree on
what an act signifies, each insisting that it is the
objective and final observer, or observing in the name
of some higher power (God, social convention, etc). In
reality, signs have different meaning depending on
context, and there is no way to finalize context.
