My mother and stage nudity.

When I was a junior in college, the UGA Drama Department did a production of "Hair."

Figuring my mother was my age then when "Hair" originally came out, I told her about it.

"Benjie, I know the only reason you wanna go see 'Hair,'" she said to me, blushing. "There are naked people in it."

And, before thinking about what I was saying, I just sorta spat out, "Oh please, I dated a member of the cast. I know what they have to offer. Trust me, that's NOT why I want to go."

My mother looked at me with this semi-stunned expression on her face.

Looking in her eyes, I think I mumbled, "Uhhh...," then I left the room.
