Nudity

I don't think there is anything wrong with nudity, after all we all have bodies.
Nudity is not taboo in our house, although we don't generally go nude all of us (3 children and 2 adults) will at some time be seen wondering around the house sans clothes.
Wrinkles add character
Jeanne Calment died at age 122. A couple of years before she died she was interviewed on French TV. When asked about aging she said ,"i have only one wrinkle and I'm sitting on it"

That's the way our household has been, although not at first as my wife was quite hesitant early on. In my Scandinavian tradition, nudity is not considered intrinsically wrong nor sinful, but OTOH we are taught to respect the feelings of others.

anna.
but mostly it's the same
Not sinful, no. If people want to be at a nude beach, that's fine for them. I wouldn't seek such a beach myself.
And I'm uncomfortable with the thought of nudity around children.

Nothing is sinful! (Sin is not a thing, to me). Although the thought of Bonzo Johnson in his birthday suit is pushing it.

I don't have a problem with it. You have probably heard Kent Hovind make his claim of calling National Geographic "National Pornographic" because in many tropical countries the women go around bare chested (to make it even worse so do the men
). When western culture comes in we are the ones that change that and now in most of those countries women, who never thought of their breasts as sexual or shameful are covering up. That tells us that the problem is not with those that are naked, they are not the immoral ones. It is those that see naked people and have those feelings themselves about those women. Kent only convicts himself with his attitude.

Well you don't have to worry about that anymore. I hope that you are proud of yourself:

Sadly, some of us can have too much character.

I agree with this.
If everyone's comfortable with it in a setting, sure. But it should be made sure everyone is fine with it. (I wouldn't be.)
There's nothing wrong with nudity in of itself, especially non-sexual nudity, but it's very much situational.
I feel like I have to have a warning for such...
I can handle it, but I must know its coming, and why(and approve of the reason).
If someone shouted "I forgot my pants, I'm coming in to get them!" I'd be perfectly fine. If they came in unannounced and sat to watch TV, I'd probably have a mild heart attack.
