Preemptive Nudity

We live in amazing times. I've seen two members of the royal family nude, I've seen a Senator's, uh, "growing deficit," and countless numbers of celebrities in various stages of undress or full on love-making action.
We live in a time where taping yourself in an intimate moment and having it "accidentally" get out, can make you and your whole family rich and famous.

There used to be silly rumors about famous people engaging in sex acts (Anyone else hear about Rod Stewart needing to get his stomach pumped?) but now we don't have to wonder because nearly every human being's sexual predilections are well-documented on the internet (and some famous pets too).

But that's what has me worried. I'm getting older and lazier. Which means my butt is getting meltier, like a sack filled with ice cream and fetid beef byproduct left out on a Summer day in Florida (This description is on my online dating profile. Why have I not received a response in over a decade?). So I'm concerned that, like what appears to be the majority of the population, a sex tape featuring me will inevitably end up on the internet.

Andy Warhol had his "15 minutes of fame" thing, I present the "inevitability of public nudity." This is my thesis that in the future everyone's naked visage, either artfully posed or through leaked airport security scans, will eventually end up on the internet.

Thus, in order to prevent the most unflattering version of my nude self--which is drunk in a department store changing room under those neon lights after eating an entire cheesecake having a full body allergic reaction whilst sobbing because no jeans look good on me and in between groinal hair grooming--from being the lasting image of me circulating the internet, I am thinking about preemptively taking a picture of myself, Photoshopping it like a Cosmo cover, then posting it.

This would be a preventative measure only. This isn't an excuse to indulge my exhibitionist streak...I swear.

Rather than go on more about my self-imposed nudism, I would like to cut this short as the Lonesome Jackalope was kind enough to surrender his space to me in my endless quest to write the most guest posts. He told me to "make it powerful, make it count." He now probably regrets those words as I wrote the most offensive post my mind could conjure. If you dare to read about such things like "Principal Knuckle-Deep" I direct you to his site: thelonesomejackalope.com. If you are unable to cope with life's horrors through humor and are easily offended, then I caution you against reading that post. It's a doozy.

  1. You should definitely take pictures of yourself nude! I fully support the idea of nude people, I've been known to be nude myself on occasion.

  2. I don't really approve of getting your nude self out there earlier. It slows down and pretty much destroys the initial curiosity of what you look like naked, but that leaves people wanting more.

    1. What if I get nude now, then get completely tattooed so that the mystery returns?

  3. I've been naked in public. I guess it's more "nekkid" because we were "up to no good." I don't think there's tape of it. This was well before cellphone telephone video recorder doohickeys.

    1. I think that as long as more than 10 people saw you nude at one time, then that satisfies the Inevitability of Public Nudity principle.

    2. Oh...then, yeah...already satisfied the requirement of The Principle of Inevitability of Public Nudity. Or PIPN for short.

  4. I once made a sex tape. Unfortunately it was an audio cassette rather than VHS. Basically, it was just a recording of me wailing into a microphone whilst pleasuring myself. If you'd like a copy I'll send you one.

    1. You could probably sell it on BandCamp as some form of avant garde art music piece. But it still doesn't satisfy the Inevitability of Public Nudity principle.

  5. I have had many nude photos taken of me. I have always been a super naked person. If I could get away with it in public I would. I'm sure everyone else is glad I can't, but still.

  6. Hmmm... See, if you just did it all the time it would become sort of old hat. It would be so boring, everyone would have seen it, that it could hardly even be considered scandalous. Just be naked all the time. Everywhere. Problem solved.

  7. I don't know what to say about this! But it is a most interesting post! :P x

  8. True, he gets a different hat but he also has legs and paws. Don't forget the paws!

  9. Not counting birth and my adolescent years, I cannot remember ever being nude in public. I used to get hammered and skinny dip in my pool with friends (women, mind you) but that is about as public as it ever got.

    Haven, do you know how many boners would nudge against your thigh if we all walked around naked all of the time? The thought alone should make you double over and heave. I had a similar thought sometime ago but I concluded that it would get really messy, fast. I could not leave my house, ever again.

  10. When I gave birth to my eldest I was very publicly exposed. But as I was pumped full of pain killers I didn't mind at all that the doctor left the door open and other patients kept wandering by to peek in to see how I was progressing.

  11. Once dated a guy who was a photographer... stupid me agreed to go into woods and have a "shoot"... holy moly, had no idea I looked so hot... hope he didn't sell them. damn.

  12. I tried releasing a sex tape once... But, unfortunately, the man getting cornholed by the horse was killed. And my hiding spot in the bushes found out. Luckily charges were dropped, but ever since then, it's left a bad taste in my mouth...

    Hugs!

  14. The fear of going blind always killed me. I am not afraid of death but after reading this post , I would prefer it over your threat. Tommorrow if I come to your blog, do you think google would give me adult content warning? Or geriatric senile people and mentally deranged pickles are off the hook?
    If your alcohol content is above limit, you could go to jail but if you can't see or hear and drive wrong way in highways and if you are 80 you shall be allowed to drive? You have diplomatic immunity for these penis, nudity posts from google?

  15. You might be right.

    If:
    a) Everyone is going to be famous on the internet for 15 minutes; and
    b) This fame is likely to nudity; and
    c) I am not getting any younger

    THEN

    I'd be a damn fool not to take steps to make sure that the internet sees me naked while I still look halfway decent.

    I have contacted Paris Hilton and the Kardashians. I hope they bring their night vision goggle things.
