I grew up in Germany and people have less of a prude culture around being nude. At sauna's everyone is naked: from old folks to children and there isn't anything erotic about it. I think finding someone attractive and being aroused depends on that person and the context and less on the amount of garments they're wearing.
The illicit nature of nudity can add to arousal simply because it is taboo. T&A are less ahem titillating when they're common place.
When yoga pants first became popular, it felt like everyone had their bare ass right out in public. And now you hardly notice.
Thats why they started making yoga pants with booty highlights
I mean, I notice every time, but I hardly notice every time.
Well, that and thinking “Please don’t let obvious indication of arousal happen…” over and over even if you’re not actually interested in what you see can have the exact effect you don’t want to happen.
Okay, Tobias...
