Ok, so I can't find your 'message me' button.  I'm either blind or you disabled it. 

So...in answer to your comment....

you say you wear clothes & whatnot because you live in society...are you saying nudist communities/colonies are barbaric for knowing skin & sex do not go hand-in-hand?

Don't read so much into things.  Of course I do not see nudist communities as barbaric.  It is a lifestyle choice.  Withing that community not wearing clothes is the social 'norm'.  However, I would venture to say that when those individuals go into the society at large they do put on clothes because that is the socially acceptable thing to do.  For the most part I do not see anyone walking around naked... so I feel I am pretty safe in my assumptions on this. 

People follow the social norms of where they live.  I lived in Munich, Germany for 2 years.  Munich has a very large garden, larger then Central Park in NYC.  In the summer it is very socially acceptable to go to this park, sit by the river that runs through and sunbathe nude.  When the people leave the park, they are dressed.  But for that time they are sun bathing, they are nude.  Not everyone does it, but many do.  They are not barbaric, they are not a-social, they are not weird... it's just what they do. 

We wear clothing because covering ourselves in most public places is just what people do.  We cover ourselves not only because it is the socially acceptable thing to do, but also for protection. 

do you believe that adulthood is always determined by age, & never mindframe?

No.  I know many 'adults' who act worse then many children I know.  However, in general age is a big factor in determining 'adulthood'.  In GENERAL as you age you become more mature, have more experiences and hopefully learn from those experiences to make better choices.  That isn't to say there aren't people who are much older then I making exceedingly poor choices and aren't acting very 'adult-like'.  Also, I know there are many kids who because of life circumstances have had to grow up very quickly.  I always feel very sad for them.  Something was stolen from them they can never get back. 

i only ask because i had to learn the hard way that being 30 does not make you an adult.

No, being 30 does not automatically make you an adult.  I'm sorry you have had a bad experience in your life.  It's a shame that you have had an experience that obviously has produced a great deal of hurt in you and also some prejudice.

you're right, i'm not christian.

I figured.  It's a choice, one I feel pretty strongly about.  I will say, surrending my life to Christ has enabled me to let go of the hurts and pains I was carrying around in my life.  He could do the same for you, if you choose. 

just because someone might dress a certain way doesn't mean anything.

That's true.  You can't judge a book by it's cover, certainly.  I know that is a very over-used phrase...but it is very true.  That being said, you can not negate the fact that appearances do make impressions on people.  And, it is often very difficult for people to NOT look at the appearance and right from the get go look beyond.  Very few people can do that. 

Also, there are particular situations in which how you dress does make a difference.  For example, an NFL player... if he were to step onto the field wearing ...say, a kilt... there certainly could be reprocussions.  1) He has no protection from the hits and what not he will inevitably encounter while playing 2) His teammates and the opposing team would most likely not take him seriously.  They would see he was not 'suited up' properly and thus must not be taking the game seriously himself. 

So, although the clothes you wear do not mean a great deal, you can just go around making blanket statements like that because there are situations in which what you wear is essential.

clothes for the most part are art, which can be interpreted many ways.

Well, that is a matter of opinion.  For the most part I see clothes as a way to cover my body.  There are particular items or styles I prefer, but I would not say I dress in a way to evoke 'art'.  I understand for many others this is not the case.

the very hard way, harder than some could imagine.

This just makes me sad.
