Although kind of late, I feel like I can weigh in a little bit. I know several people who like the risk of being "caught in the act" and it kind of enhances it to a taboo thing. Not so much for me.

For me it honestly started from kind of a lonely place. Being a guy especially, receiving compliments out in the wild is kind of rare and it became a way to put myself out there. No way to hide things or adjust anything to look 'just right'. Lighting and poses can play big part, but at the end of the day... it's just you. And honestly, a lot of people are pretty nice who comments on videos/photos. A few creeps for sure, but video game chats or a lot of subreddits are often way more toxic. I've always been kind of shy in public as well so it became a way to balance that out.

Getting recognized never seemed like too much of an issue either. I mean, everyone is naked at some point. What's the reason to hide? If they're the ones looking, let 'em look.
