Aw man, I shoulda been there. :) I'm so glad you made it to the sauna, though, because see chart #1.
One thing I relate to, coming from Canada and then moving to Finland, is the kind of narrative nudity presents in a culture. And I'm not saying that the HBO stuff isn't occasionally fun, but I think the problem arises in that North Americans in general are only exposed to the sexualised narrative.
Every time I'm back in Canada I'm struck by how miserable people are as regards to their own bodies. To some extent that's universal, but it's much more pronounced over there. It's quite sad. Also, why do I have a feeling your brain is already writing a game about this.
