Another thing I wanted to address was the issue of clothing (I
think there was a thread about it earlier). For the most part, in
their world, clothing does not serve quite the same purpose as it
does here (to protect us from the elements). It is used primarily as
an indicator of social status. Some folks would wear clothing which
might show where they came from, while others may wear clothing to
indicate their careers (Val, as an example, often wears business
suits, but on her off-days, would likely wear casual clothing similar
to what she'd wear back in Vermont). Some species, such as lizards,
would need clothing to help stay warm during winter, of course.

Jim, another purpose for clothing is modesty.
(Not that the SW girls are modest, mind you...) <G>
Is there the same sense of modesty, to the point of public nudity laws like
we have?
Not to the absurd degree like some Muslim countries have with the
all-covering Burqa, but more like the laws and customs of the US?
