- The Gammies, a naturist couple, are upset that the Titleys, a textiles couple, are planning to add windows to a loft overlooking their property where they enjoy being nude while gardening.
But Mr Gammie 48, a corporate events organiser explained that while he is not embarrassed about nudity he fears arrest if he is seen by members of the public. He said: "We feel most comfortable when we are in the nude. We do not think clothing should get in the way. It is a family pastime. But these windows will enable adults and children to look out at us. We will probably get the police around."
- A California woman was convicted today of killing her husband in order to collect the life insurance and get breast implants. Now this is a woman who has serious body issues. In a related story, it turns out that women can achieve larger breasts by getting liposuction on their tummies.
- News from Bizarro World: In Spain, a man riding nude on his bicycle through a town was stopped by a police officer and told to cover up. Turns out the naked man is chairman of a nudist organization and took the officer to court for violating his democratic right to go clothes-free. The officer now faces a fine and will have to pay the naturist damages.
- Homophobia Department: A Denver columnist has stopped working out at the gym because of "hairy naked dudes".
...who are not even bothering to cover up in a timely manner; hairy naked dudes who are conversing about sports - again while they're naked. Hairy naked dudes who stand buck naked in front of the mirror and comb their hair - you know the hair on their head. From the time it takes me to get dressed I feel like my eyes have done more awkward aversions than an observer at a leper colony. Apparently, I'm the only one who not only appreciates - but finds the invention of the towel as a social necessity.
- Retired supermodel Tyra Banks has put on 30 pounds since her glory days on the runway, but she is not ashamed of her body and wants teenage girls to know that it's OK to put on some weight. She has been savaged by some for her fuller figure.
Tyra said, "To call that ugly -- so many young girls are looking at that -- I need to let them know that's not ugly. It was very important for me to be on the cover of People magazine and bare my body and say, 'I'm 161 pounds.'"
- Taiwanese women are stripping down to sell betel-nuts.
