Well written, and interesting too . . . .

Some of the replies are ' on the nail too ' . . . . .

This week, I too became aware that " Naked Education " was available on YouTube ; When I went to sleep on Wednesday evening, I was part way through watching episode 3. When I went to continue watching on Thursday morning - not available and had been removed . . . . . sadly.

What I had seen - excellent indeed, and a well constructed and informative programme.

I too have seen a number of the negative feedback / comments - and whilst these people are loud in their disgust of ' seeing and displaying naked bodies ', I am yet to see any comment or remark that all of the ' children ' admitted to having watched porn, and 1 of them did so at the age of 11.

Personally, I would much rather have children educated via this programme - rather than a porn show / channel / etc

Another real shame - we in New Zealand are unable to watch the programme On Demand as we are outside the UK. However, I have emailed Channel 4 to ascertain if there is any way in which it can be viewed from New Zealand.

Another well-considered piece, Steve.

While the "nudity in the changing rooms" debacle happened at a NSW surf club, the Aussie situation is by far the worst in the ultra-conservative Queensland state, where it is actually illegal for a person to allow their genital area be visible in any public space, or for a person in their own property to allow their genital area to be seen by anyone in a public space. That's what is behind the current problems at Alexandria Bay - traditionally "nudist" but police must act on any complaints of nudity there.
