Hey Jim; please don push yourself. Whenever you are ready just remove the catheter and become yourself again. For good this time!
Become Our illustrious Jim Hardiman again!

Generally speaking, different cultures and countries have somewhat
different views on that. Clothing will often reflect the wearer's
social status in his/her community. In that sense, the vast majority
of folks wear clothing there (except for dragons, of course. They
exist in tribes much like Aborigines or African tribes. Dragons also
do not interact much with the rest of civilized society, since they're
not really a part of it).
There is nothing illegal about going topless. Most beaches in their
world are topless. One _could_ get in trouble for walking around in
public without dressing their lower half, however. It's not that it's
morally offensive or anything, but is instead understood as a sexual
advance.
By contrast, in Onika or Treska's homeworld, neither species wears
clothing, except for the times when Onika's people attend a special
ceremony, or go to the local market to sell/trade goods. Treska's
people never wear clothing (not that you'd really see anything; her
race is pretty dark-skinned, and nothing's really "hanging out"
anywhere). Walking around in their world without clothing would not
attract attention. Even though they're all essentially nude, it is
not mistaken or read as a sexual invitation. Unless, of course, one
is foolish enough to lift a tail and hold it to the side. That's
pretty much a big invitation.
Aside from lizards and chameleons, most genitalia on the different
species in the Trio's world are not readily visible to the nakes eye
(as they are on humans, for example). Realize too, that nearly all of
those species use pheromones/scents and body language to indicate
receptivity, rather than stricly vision.
Man, I hope that makes sense. I'm pretty fucking wasted on
medication right now. Some of the stuff they've got me taking can
cause hallucinations, but I haven't seen anything cool yet (damn!) I
got back from the hospital late last night. The docs removed the tube
poking out of my side, and plugged in a catheter to what may be the
most sensitive part on the male body. Can't wait until they yank that
out next week. Woo-hoo! They don't even sedate you for that shit,
and it'll be the third time I'll have a hose pulled out of there. How
much fun can one guy have?
On the Skunkworks website, there are pages which detail the history
and customs in the Trio's world, so hopefully that'll cover all the
bases for such questions. I tried to make it as thorough as possible.
