I struggle to see why so many are offended by the naked body.
We all have one.

Agreed.

I understand that being naked in public is not an offence in the UK, but I'd like to know how that is differentiated from indecent exposure, which I am sure IS an offence. Is it just that the latter involves wearing a coat or something?

To me, indecent exposure brings to mind the man who once ran out of undergrowth right in front of me, his open raincoat flapping to display his bits. Not aimed at me, I don’t think - looked more as if he was running away after having flashed at someone else!
Maybe ‘indecent intent’ would be an apt term.

We were on a walking holiday in the Camargue when a rather portly, naked gentleman road past us on a bike. I really didn’t know what to think, it was hot and he wasn’t wearing a hat.

Now that was just plain silly of him. How irresponsible to be out in the sun without the protection of a hat....stupid boy!

Some of these comments have really made me laugh.
