Why are clothes considered essential for survival?

655 views

Clothing is considered one of the most essential things we need for basic survival, up there with food, water, housing, and healthcare. Those all make sense. But I’ve been naked for hours on end, many times before, and I’m just fine.

It honestly seems more like a social thing (e.g. public nudity is a social taboo) than anything that is scientifically linked to survival.

Yeah, try and go naked outside in the middle of the night. Or better, try sleeping naked outdoors. You will slowly but surely get cold and even if you survive a couple of nights, you’ll definitely get sick and this will start your path to your demise.
