"Currently, we see in society that young people are emerging naked on social media. Pornography in all shades is easily accessible and consumed in great style. Apparently, there is no more bluffness when it comes to the naked body of virtual culture.
But at the same time children and young people are exempted from going into shower in school. Young men and women grow their body in fitness centers, but they are too scary to turn naked into the shower afterwards.
In other words, we need to reconsider our relationship with the natural nudity of the body."
Seems to be an exploration of the apparent paradox of a society where there is:
- lots of easily available [idealized] nudity and [fantasy] sex in media
- yet individuals are more shy and ashamed of their own [real "imperfect"] bodies.
