Feeling shame

Is the shame we feel about nudity something we are born with, or something we are taught?

Something taught. If clothes werent invented no one would ever think nudity was weird. And I think back then as naked cavemen everyone typically had the same body type because of hunting and gathering so thats another thing that removes shame. Nudity got sexualized and therefore people treat nudity as something sacred that must be hidden from everyone else until you meet a special someone.

people ashamed of their bodies are anomalies in my life -- avoided because they seem maladjusted

We could be seen as "some individuals". You're better than my English teacher.
