So to Spelvin a think nudism being associated with freedom might be key. I thought about this for a while.

Being bottomless is more infantalizing I think because it insinuates parental care and control. This can be true for nudity as well but not necessarily. I sometimes choose to go naked to feel free, but in those situations, why would I have remained only bottomless?

Being bottomless meant two things, either I'd be made to put a T-shirt or pj top on for a practical reason (not getting sunburned or staying warm for eg) or I had had my bottoms taken off for some reason (keep shorts and underwear dry when paddling or had been naughty and had a smack bottom for eg). In each case a parent or adult had made a decision and I had been undressed as a small child would be. I did not make the decision. As a good example I recall bottomless in a French village shop because my mum felt I needed a t-shirt to protect my shoulders when we when hiking and I also needed shoes for walking. My white bottom though needed some sun in her opinion and my mom judged a layer of suncream would be enough protection. Hence we went by the shop to get more suncream which was promptly rubbed into my bottom outside the shop after I was given a lollipop. I made no decisions myself, and while I may have been 14 at the time I was basically a little kid only becoming self conscious when I was spun around to have some suncream quickly wiped on my front.
The contrast in this example is that had I been "free" to make decisions, I would have just gone naked.
