To the men, a woman’s nakedness
is “a nakedness beyond mere nudity.”
Being naked does unnerve the men: it is an ordeal; and being looked at is nearly a terror. The men seem to distract themselves from their own nakedness by looking at women in an abstracting or fetishizing way; the voyeurism, the displaced
excitement, puts the physical reality of their own nakedness into a dimension of numbed abstraction.
