I say no being if you go by that logic then 100% of people are nudsits, everyone is nude in their home often even alone. To me being a nudist is something social. Even if you only do it at home and dont tell anyone else then for sure you are not a nudist in my eyes. If you only go nude in your home and remain nude while you have guests yes you are a nudist. But simply taking a shower and not getting dressed for around hour after your done while alone does not make you a nudist, I am sorry. +5Was this answer helpful?

anonymous: It sounds like you think, bseauce only 10% of the kids are getting over 500 on the SATs, we should keep the standards low, so that every kid can graduate high school? Why should this be a goal, when US students consistently underperform other developed and undeveloped countries - ignoring our failures won't help these kids compete.If there is a true "Algebra" standard, and if real [as opposed to fake] tests are administered to enforce the standard, and if the results of those tests are published, then what they will show is that only low single-digits' worth of Blacks & Hispanics will be able to cut the mustard [just off the top of my head, I'd say maybe 3% to 6%, although that might be a little high - it might be more like 1%].So then The Powers That Be will face a dilemma:1) Preserve the integrity of the exam, but flunk out 95% or more of all Blacks & Hispanics.2) Retain the exam, but water it down to the point that it becomes meaningless*.3) Ditch the exam altogether [ipso facto ditching the "Algebra" standard with it]. *Cue [substitute "Algebra" for "Math"]:Teaching Math In the fifties: A logger sells a truckload of lumber for $100.
