Answer: unsheveled

I found all of the others (plus "out at the elbows") at www.thesaurus.com.

2. The first nudes were of course, Adam and Eve. When they were made aware of their nudity, what did God provide for them to cover their nakedness?

Answer: Animal Skins

You can look it up in Genesis 3:21. They provided the fig leaves for themselves.

Answer: California

San Gregorio Beach has been a nude beach since 1967.

4. Who painted "Nude Descending a Staircase No. 2"?

Answer: Marcel Duchamp

This painting caused an immediate sensation when it was introduced in New York during the winter of 1913. On critic described it as an "explosion in a shingle factory".

5. Where is the Venus De Milo located?

Answer: The Louvre, Paris

After the Venus was discovered, it was originally shipped to Turkey. On route, it was transferred to a French vessel. The Turkish captain was publicly beaten upon his arrival to Turkey empty-handed. The French actually tried to have arms added to the statue before King Louis XVIII decreed that it should remain as is.

6. If you are unreasonably afraid of nudity, what malady do you suffer from?

Answer: Gymnophobia

The root is also where we get our word gymnasium.

7. Who was on stage during the infamous "streaker" incident during the 1974 Oscars?

Answer: David Niven

This was recently voted the most memorable moment in the history of the Oscars. Ever cool-headed, David deadpanned about the streaker, "The only laugh that man will ever get in his life is by stripping...and showing the world his shortcomings."

8. What compelled Lady Godiva to make her famous ride?

Answer: To Lower Taxes

It's really an interesting story and it's mostly true!
Read about it at: http://www.abacom.com/~jkrause/godiva.html.

9. What country does "The Naked Chef" hail from?

Answer: England

Jamie Oliver, otherwise known as "The Naked Chef" has a regular show on Food Network (fully clothed, of course).

10. What popular magazine caused a controversy by publishing pictures of a nude model in August 1902?

Answer: Popular Mechanics

The photos were of an art class. I'm not sure why they were published. (They were 'Popular Mechanics' first and only nude pictures.)
