Abstract

In Chinese historical customs, women cannot show their feet. However, in the history of Western art, the naked woman is a very prevalent art form. Many artists even consider such art to be more representative of art than any other art. Acceptance of exposure varies from country to country, region, or religion, and this is also true in contemporary society. Nowadays, people must be well dressed and associate the exposure level with the morality level. This essay explores the history of dressing revealingly, the acceptance of exposure by people in different countries and cultures, and the relationship and related experiments between the level of morality and the level of exposure. The experiment used demographics as a variable to study two relationships, and one examined the relationship between sexual attraction and exposure. The other examined the relationship between the level of morality and the level of exposure.
