Sex (for gender) animals or communication attempts

Sex (for gender) animals or communication attempts

Nudity is not just the nakedness of the bodies. With his physical nakedness, the person is completely stripped of the other person, because only with total nudity can the complete offer be made: communication. The huge opening of man to the other man is a total act that does not allow any shyness … ‘Nudity is the opposite of closure.’ The body is beyond reason. The body is this far.
