I selected the article Modesty and I plan to add more citations to certains areas of the article as well as more information in some religions that are brought up.
Small children are widely not expected to be fully clothed in public until they are grown up.
(Traditional indigenous)
Modesty doesn't have to be related to having more clothes especially in the case of natives tribes. Some feel exposed when seen in certain clothes even though normal attire is much more revealing. Having ear or lip stoppers is seen as modest with the opposite being true as well.[1]
Eastern Norms
editCompared to Western norms, Eastern society is more accepting in terms of modesty. Today, Eastern views are seen as generally accepting of nudity, it being commonly seen in public or social events in many countries. In many social events nudity is seen and accepted, from relaxing on a beach to eating at a park.[2] The idea of nudity has also been seen to unify nations. [3]

This is well thought out. There is a spelling error with "citations to certains areas". You have a lot of good sources even though some of the claims seem opinionated. Will you have a section on western norms? Maxpierro99 (talk) 21:52, 21 October 2016 (UTC)
