Naked festivals & events around world

While many shy away from showing skin, some people in around the world find it completely fine - and fun. Take a look at some naked-themed festivals and events used to promote causes and advocacies, while others are meant to commemorate important events. In Philippines, an annual naked run in the State University called the 'Oblation Run' is often used to protest national issues. The name has been taken from the University's official statue - the Oblation - which is a sculpture of a naked man with arms spread wide as a symbol of offering one's self to the country.
