A new survey by Yesawich, Pepperdine, Brown & Russell/Yankelovich Partners
indicates that 12 percent of adults consider a resort that offers a nude
recreation experience extremely desirable.
Hmmm.
A brief consultation withwww.census.govrevealsthatthe 2007 adult
(18+) population of the USA is approximately 227,360,700.
Twelve percent of that is 27,283,284. That would be a lot of social
nudists.
Now, it's true of course that all those folks wouldn't actually doff
their duds at such a resort, and some wouldn't even go to such a
resort if the opportunity arose. They aren't all social nudists.
Nevertheless, 27,283, 284 is very large number.
One wonders how many social nudists there really are in these United
States of America. Is it half of that? Or is it maybe just a third?
Half would be 13 to 14 million social nudists.
One-third would be in the range of eight to ten million.
Whatcha think?
I wasn't aware that exhibitionism had become such a problem.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Psychiatric Disorders~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
There are different theories related to exhibitionistic behaviors,
many stemming from the psychoanalytic camp. They suggest that
childhood trauma (e.g., sexual abuse) or significant childhood
experiences can manifest itself in exhibitionistic behavior.
This disorder is characterized by either intense sexually arousing
fantasies, urges, or behaviors in which the individual exposes his or
her genitals in public.
You did not give us the definition of someone who must hide himself
from view. Psychoanalists suggest that childhood trauma (e.g., sexual
abuse) or significant childhood experiences can manifest itself in
concealing behavior, shyness and other disorders.
Just say it Davy boy. You like to expose yourself in public.
The only thing I am exposing is _your_ hypocracy and bigotry. You hide
yourself. Did you suffer some sort of child abuse or is it all due to
your religious indoctrination. Of course that could be classed as
child abuse as well.
Translation: Davy boy is a heathen atheist as well as an
exhibitionist.
