Though I have an account sometimes ago with Wikipedia my delight site for real educational informations. But hope to use this opportunity to prove my skills. So I am bidding Find below sample of my article: "The World of Nudity: Caring for the African Women" Fashion in strict term could be difficult. But then, it is a term that usually applies to a prevailing mode of expression, but quite often applies to a personal mode of expression that may or may not apply to all. It could be used to mean glamour, beauty and style. In this sense, fashions are sort of communal art, through which a culture examines its notions of beauty and goodness. And on the other hand, fashion could imply fads, trends and materialism when used in the negative sense. In the annals of history, Africa, besides being the cradle of civilization, prides itself (and it is acknowledge by other people too) by her culture of modesty, an uncommon culture that others can only envy. Now, all that modesty has melted away, no thanks to the perversion of the present generation of leaders and people of the continent who have become over-enthusiastic collaborators with whoever is scheming from the outside to shred that garment of modesty. Its satisfaction of canal desires now harbours the greatest percentage of cases of a disease whose major medium is cohabitation. 1 Today, nudity in the name of fashion, is no respecter of age, class, nationality or race. It is a global problem. The trend toward nudity in Africa is more worrisome now than before. Many women and ladies for the sake of looking "corporate" are walking in the streets, offices, and even the places of worship in semi-nude attires. In fact, the fashion world promotes the culture of nudity, urges ladies and women to flaunt what they have, to harass or intimidate the innocent men all around. Imagine the various names of dresses they put on: spaghetti, body-hugs, pedal pushers, flower parts, cropped parts, see-through, gypsy tops, hood gowns, pencil jeans, boob tubes, bell-button, among others.2 But, should the African Woman copy every fad because Western cultures tolerate them? This is exactly what the paradigm of this article revolves. It not only presents the basic moral fallacies and bankruptcy inherent in Western fashion model, but also examines several specific areas of concern for humanity to digest and find a possible way out. Imagine the just-concluded T V rave that was called "Big Brother Africa", it clearly demonstrated how the continent celebrates shame and indecency, and how the so-called leaders and people find recreation and relaxation in watching twelve of their sons and daughters willingly got locked up inside a house to engage in all sorts of immorality and obscenity for almost one-third of a year! Disturbingly, the act of indecency and immorality was celebrated and blown beyond proportion through-out the continent. Little wonder, twelve sub-Saharan and central African countries was said to be ravaged by the HIV/AIDS scourge: Angola, Botswana, Kenya, Malawi, Namibia, South-Africa, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia and Zimbabwe are all on the "state of emergency" list of all HIV/AIDS agencies. Ghana and Nigeria complete the roll call. The latest UNAIDS figures shows that 70 percent of HIV cases is in Africa, and 90 percent of them are in these countries that were happy to watch their sons and daughters become "maestros" in a jamboree that could only promote more perversion and more reckless cohabitation and by extension, more HIV and AIDS.3 Notes 1.
