BERLIN (Reuters) - A mysterious blonde paid a visit to a petrol station shop in the small eastern German town of Doemitz on Sunday -- wearing nothing but a pair of golden stilettos and a thin gold bracelet.
The tall, slender woman strolled into the shop in the town of Doemitz on the warm afternoon and bought cigarettes, petrol station employee Ines Swoboda told Reuters on Monday.
"I wasn't surprised because she's come in naked before -- she's a very nice woman," Swoboda said, adding none of the other customers were bothered. The woman could have faced charges of creating a public disturbance if anyone had complained.
A quick-witted customer did, however, snap pictures of the woman believed to be about 30 years old as she walked back to a waiting Ferrari and climbed into the passenger seat. Several of those photos appeared in the German media on Monday.
In America, this woman would have been arrested before she got her gas cap off. LOL

Easy answer -- it's our Puritan roots. We're headed in the other direction, though. All you need to do is look at the media over the last 50 years and compare what has been considered acceptable over time.
Apparently, walking around naked in public places isn't the norm for Germans, either -- or this wouldn't have made the news. :-)
i dont believe that you can tell what values the american society has based on tv shows, movies, etc.
and our media is a joke- whether it be the evening news - or primetime television
this is exactly what i was referring to! :)
lets be honest here

PS - If you're male, don't do it in the Artic - yr penis could get frostbite and drop off according to a doctor giving advice on a TV programme about an expedition to the North Pole.
*S*@the Naked Chef
hehehe
i thought i had remembered correctly that there was a naked bike ride in the uk recently
*S* i love that the uk would allow this, makes me smile
I find that I really have no problem with nudity "in the streets" as it were, as a general principle. But the fact that most people seem to prefer to adorn themselves with clothes and/or jewellery and other artifacts seems to indicate much more than a simple biblical attitude to nakedness. Let alone protection against the elements. Although youth and beauty are always admired and often feared, particularly for their sexual charisma, I rather like the idea that all shapes and sizes and ages can be more realistic and accepting of their humanity in the shape of their bodies. What's to be ashamed of?
lol love it
I was in Colorado a couple of years ago and there was a fun case going on in the newspapers at that time. A bloke had been seen by his neighbour wandering about in his own house, without benefit of clothes to cover his shame. The neighbour was appalled, aghast and flabberghasted apparently and the bloke got arrested. Finally I think the case was dropped, but the bloke - who was not American by birth - undertook to follow local custom and not frighten any more horses.
fookin nosey!
Obviously, we must have respect for the others around us, but when does our home become ours with no one to answer to for what we do inside of it?
oh i know, people cant help but to slow down to look at the traffic accident
people are freakin nosey
the sad part is, a crowd had gathered around her but none of those people thought to call 911, they just stopped and stared
WTF?
Although, they do say that there's 3 types of people in a crisis situation. Type A: the kind who react and are typically the "hero"; Type B: the kind who freeze and all knowledge or common sense escapes them; and Type C: the kind who panic.
Aparently, LBC, you are Type A :)
Hey you know AdGuy always gets the last word! ;)
