Nude Yoga?

I was amused by this article in my morning paper, obviously taken from the Vancouver Sun, about "Skyclad Yoga" classes currently being run in Vancouver. It's more spiritual, apparently. Unsurprisingly (to me - what do you think?) it's a guy thing...

This reminds me of the man at Former U who told me that clothes were a Tool of the Oppressor and that Learning should Take Place in a Natural Way, with no Textile Barriers to get in the way of Learning and Intellectual Expression.

I looked at him, and said "You know, many of these rooms get really hot. Do you want to sit in some guy's scrotal sweat, liberally decorated with shed body hair?"

He told me I was clearly uncomfortable with my body. :) Why do I suspect that that is this instructor's line whenever anyone expresses doubts about the concept?
