2 Things.

1. America became ground zero for the obesity epidemic due to the amount of misinformation about weight loss and processed foods which on a side note makes the processed food and diet supplement industry billions. This has lead to our culture to stigmatize a large percentage of our population as "disgusting fatties" raising a great deal of self consciousness about our own bodies; not only being naked but also going out in public for fear of being judged.

2. The Christian Fundamentalist movement in the US tends to portray any open displays of sexuality as sinful and immoral. This mentality pervades our public institutions which enforce doctrine based on these beliefs not only in our schools in sexual education and the fact that any open display of sexual organs outside of your own home will be severely punished by our criminal justice system.
