We had a good list going for ourselves.
protection from aggressive animals, vegetation. sharp rocks
protection from bad weather and/or sunlight
to avoid stepping in poop
to soak up body juices
to be creative in costume
to be sexually attractive in costume
but, here’s another reason = security
My favorite is still[quote=“chordy, post:1, topic:69295”]
to avoid stepping in poop

Yes, that is one someone else reading the post thought up. I don’t remember who it was.
I guess I wear clothes so that I won’t be sent to jail or the psych ward. that’s like the main reason for me anyways. I don’t know about other people…
Because flesh is hideous.
It’s hot, it’s cold.
Blocks the rays of the sun, blocks the lack of the sun’s heat when the cold comes to say hello.
But did i mention it’s because flesh is hideous, and we’re freaks of nature basically show we should probably cover it up.
To express your personality in a non-sexual way. For fashion
To look like dirty socks to giants…otherwise they would just gobble us up for the delicious snacks we are…this is the original reason…according to sources…I just made up…
To be scandalized at the lack of it. People like to be scandalized. I’m appalled at anyone who didn’t know that.
It’s supposed to get down to 3 degrees F tonight. Thank God for clothes!
It’s mainly to be presentable
It’s done for other people
I wear clothes now because every time I used to go out to eat at McDonald’s I think they deliberately gave me bad service because I have a bit of a gut.
There’s something else I can’t put my finger on. I really like flannel shirts now.
Something about it makes me feel warm just looking at it. The right combination of color and patterns really has some weird effect.
I tend to think a little different then it was something we did only out of necessity. Just can’t quite put what it is into words.
By the way, for a century it was legal to be naked in public in San Francisco which is just up the road from me. But just last year it was banned by a narrow margin in a vote.
In Soviet Russia, clothing wears you.
How can we have fashion shows if we didn’t wear clothing?

That’s disturbing…are the green faced sock puppets pulling an alien chest buster? Feeding on his 8 nipples?..
And what’s up with the oddly placed green balls on his hat…unborn green faced sock puppets?
I hate my body and just want to cover it up. I need to lose weight, which makes it harder to hide, but even when I was thin I’m not comfortable naked.
I can’t agree with @pansdisease since I think some human bodies are beautiful, but mine really is horrible to look at.
I’m going with a lot…and the expensive kind…and who ever their like " hey does this look good?"…is either a huge ass kisser…or also on the above stated drugs…ah you deleted it…now this post makes no sense…lol oh well…
Remember Andrew Martinez, referred to as “The Naked Guy” who used to be in the news regularly. He was an activist at UC Berkeley. Sadly, he died quite young, in his thirties.
-18.5F here with wind chill. Definitely not a good day to go nekkid.
BRRRRRRRRRR.
