30. "well, yeah...."
In response to In response to 29


          

>that natural = uncomfortable and embarrassed

...but you know I had this discussion with her after someone told us about an Oprah episode (of all things) where they took women and forced them to go about their normal lives with NO MAKEUP for a week.

The women just broke down.

So my first reaction was: Jesus, that's sad. Human beings ought to be able to deal with themselves.

But at the same time, we choose to wear clothing. Would you feel fine living your life completely naked for a week? Driving around, going shopping, seeing friends...

At some level, we choose what we're comfortable with and maintain that. So while I think it's sad that there exist these habits which -- in absence -- would directly impair the normal course of life, doesn't everyone have a self-image problem at some level?
