Why do people care if a photo exist of them on the internet naked? Its your human body get over it. why be ashamed of it. Its society that has in bedded our brains into thinking are real body's should be hidden. Well I say fuck that I get nakid all the time and I'm not even looking that great, I might seem crazy now but give in a few hundred yeas and i'll be normal in the eyes of society as it progresses. Who wants a dick pic?
