  You actually have clauses in your
  contract about nudity?

         ANNA
  Definitely.  ‘You may show the dent at
  the top of the artist’s buttocks — but
  neither cheek.  In the event of a stunt
  person being used, the artist must have
  full consultation.’
      – Notting Hill

And so as a movie star, I am now considering the nudity clause in my contracts. ahihi…..

Ever since I gave birth, I have been lax with these things inside my house..upto a degree of course. I mean you sort of lose a part of yourself (like dignity) when you are in the labor room and the ob-gyne, nurses, pediatrician, anaesthesiologists have seen where your baby came from. Anyway, they’re looking at it in the clinical sense. And then you come home and you need your episiotomy stitch to be regularly swathed with ointments (which of course you can’t do alone – for whatever pride you may have in you), so for me, I let my mother-in-law do it (my hubby goes to the office). And then you breastfeed at home, so people inside the house get to see a part of your milkers. All in the non-malicious way of course.

As young children, my sisters and I, even at one point with my brother even, take baths together. In college, I took a bath with two of my thesis-mates (girls of course) in school. We were in a hurry since we did not want to be late for our presentation. When I got married, my mother warned me to not show myself nude to my husband. She said something about men getting turned off by it…I believe I just rolled my eyes at this..heheh

Anyway, this morning, as I was finishing my throne duties in the bathroom (I do it in the nude, as afterwards I will take my bath), the door opened and in comes my father-in-law not yet looking up, so he hasn’t seen me. I tried to say something but was speechless so I gave up. Anyway, when he saw me, he doubled back and got out. I can just imagine him getting really embarrassed about it. It was no biggie for me. It just made me wish even more to have longer hair. I’ve always wanted (especially now that it’s so fun to tease my hubby about it) to not wear a top and be Dyesebel.

Someday, I promise, I will be Dyesebel .
