Heading to the Vancouver Olympics? Don't Forget to Get Nude!

With the start of the 2010 Olympics in Vancouver, Canada less than two weeks ago, it's about time that we reflect back on the true meaning of the Olympics: nudity. Although it'll be the Winter Olympics up in cold British Columbia, we're sure that there'll be at least a few die-hard "nakationers" taking time out to watch the Bobsled racers in their body stocking, we're not sure that a naked luge would be such a great idea.

Still, there are those out there who argue for a return to the naked times of the ancient Greeks:

With the Vancouver Olympics just two weeks away, members of the American Association for Nude Recreation believe it’s time to take a fresh look at the robust ways of the ancient Greeks, who performed feats of strength and skill during the first Olympics. And, to point out that the first Olympics was the earliest documented form of, you guessed it, nude recreation. In the ancient city of Olympia, the site of these first Olympics, the athletes always competed in the nude. In fact, in Greek, 'gymnos' means 'nude.'

You learn something new everyday, don't ya? So we think we'll also celebrate the beginning of the Olympics and the start of nude recreation by getting naked too...in the shower.
