Dan's Thoughts

Nude, Naked or Nekkid?
Nude.

But it can sometimes be useful to review these terms to understand what their extended meaning is in our culture. Don Coldsmith does a good job with this in his article, "Naked, nekkid and nude." Give it a read to get current on the terms.

But, there are a couple of things that need a bit of correction. He makes the frequent media mistake of mentioning the notion of a nudist colony. The other is at the start of his article where he cites what he believes to be a common dream:

You suddenly find yourself on the street, in a classroom, at a party,
or at work, with no clothes on. You wake in terror, and for a minute or
two, halfway between the dream world and the real world, there’s
a shadow of doubt. DID IT REALLY HAPPEN?

Wake in terror? Really? Sounds like a average day to me.
