That's hilarious. They infected them with their own afflictions by accident.

You first have to get somewhere, where it actually gets cold. In African savannahs you can comfortably sleep outside butt naked. That's why humans evolved to be hairless in the first place.

Another problem is what the string is supposed to be made of.

Yeah you can just sleep outside in the African savannah butt naked. Elephants have minimal bodyhair and so do warthogs.

@GregorBarclay If that was a danger, they wouldn't have evolved to be hairless in the first place. I think there's still hunter gatherers sleeping outside pretty much naked in African savannahs.

Exposed skin is actually less vulnerable to parasites, because they can't hide. Warthogs and elephants are also pretty much furless. >That would help with rain as well. Huh? If you're hanging fur from your shoulders, it gets soggy. It gets heavy and cold. Your bare skin however dries out really quickly.

I think comparing survival of species and survival of civilization is completely confused. I don't see why they should have anything to do with each other. A civilization typically tries to stay alive and it's also immune to pretty much anything that kills a species. On the other hand a civilization might off itself much faster than species typically do. Imo they're simply two entirely different things.

@prezhenz6969 Yeah, the correct description would be "degenerate", because they likely lost a bunch of stuff their ancestors had. At least they got a funky mythology and boomerangs.

So they couldn't mate selectively without kinky clothing or what?

I never stopped being naked.
