(Gymnos being the Greek word for “nude”) The fear of being (or seeing others) naked.

Okay, so I live under a rock. Had it not been for Taylor Blue I never would have known that Ashley Greene had nakey pictures leaked, because it’s not something that I care to know,honestly. If she wants to wander around naked, then good for her! I hate clothes as much as the next person, truly I do, but I am also aware and possibly jaded enough NOT to pose for pictures while in my birthday suit, and not to ever trust anyone with them, because let’s face it ya’ll.. Everybody has a price. EVERYBODY. It sucks but it’s true.
There are so many things I don’t understand in this world, but I’ll stick to this ONE topic for once,with no digressions, though Holden Caulfield would be very disappointed.
Why is being naked SUCH a big deal? I don’t understand it.
The human body is beautiful, male or female, tall or short, curvy or thin, it just IS.
My question is not, why did you do this?
My question is, why are the rest of us not?..(Especially Jackson Rathbone, and Kellan Lutz..HINT HINT)
If we were all to be more open, more accepting of nudity, then this wouldn’t continue to make headlines, and instead we’d be forced to read about things that actually matter for once. *Sharp intake of breath* How horrible.
