This is true enough, but not an argument for displaying yourself barely
dressed. Adam and Eve were made perfect, but they spoiled this perfection by
eating of the tree and learning of evil. Something very profound and important
happened that day. Since then, there has been shame in nakedness, because now
man knows shame and his own evil (hence the urgent need for a Saviour). Sorry
this is so short and hurried, but my wife is waiting in the car.
As far as dreesing 'classy not trashy', I can't say I do (or can afford to do)
either. That word 'classy' carries some bad mojo, bringing up the whole 'class
systems' thing, which is pretty ugly. 8^D
