#also side note... talkin abt the whole bible business

on this topic of nudity, just wanted to share a local anti-rape culture documentary called Walang rape sa Bontok / Bontoc, Rapeless (2014) !! which talks not only about desexualized nudity among the Bontok-Igorot people, but also tackled a 2004 study talking about how the Bontok ppl had a near “rape-less” society !!! (though in the present day, i dont think this is the case anymore for the tribe? because of the general modern day views on nudity and rape :( )

while the documentary was previously uploaded on vimeo, it is no longer accessible, sadly :( but! here is a trailer for the film, as well as a review written in english that non-filos can read! (filos u can read this taglish review and a bunch more on scribd n wordpress if u google hehe)

point is that nudity wasnt always a malicious concept AND that many cultures over the world understood that AND that colonialism fucked up the way we perceived our bodies n sexuality and ill forever be angry as hell abt that

white people ruined the non sexual intimacy of nakedness methinks
