Naked
In this essay, Forbes writes about how people have reacted to nudity, as in naked bodies. She starts from when she was just 4 years old, how a bus full of children were all astounded by seeing her naked. And how later on when she was in college, her roommates were all disgusted after she hung up a poster with a woman half-naked. And Forbes simply couldn't understand the reason why people reacted the way they did, since she herself was so open to nudity.
I believe the essay is greatly organized, because is starts with a simply introduction on how Forbes was born naked. And it continues on how her body nakedness was received as she was growing, by her mother and by her sister's schoolmates. And then on how she bared herself to her boyfriend, but this time it wasn't physically, it was emotionally. And in the end, she uses all these reactions to prove that people are scared to nakedness, and how she isn't, because she was born naked, and that is just how she plans to stay, maybe not physically, but definitely emotionally. What she means is that she is a naked person, in the sense that she is very open; one can see through her, she doesn't hide things. And when Forbes refers to how others fear nakedness, simply means that they fear being themselves, which is why they hide some things, therefore they are not naked, like Forbes is. Forbes is trying to tell us is not so much as nudity as in naked bodies. She writes on how she was born naked, and how people feared naked, turned away from it, unlike her. In the end she uses a great way to show how people react to nakedness, by the reaction her roommate got as she put on the poster in her room.
