When a male guy models for a (co-ed) life drawing group, he has the option of wearing a "Speedo" or short briefs for modesty. The lady model doesn't have that choice, she has to be nude. That is, back in 1972. I don't think it mattered that we didn't see, uh, all of the guys, and there weren't many male models anyway. The lightly drawn figure under the model's knee is a sketch of my mother, drawing as part of the art group.
Pencil on sketchbook page, 5" x 8", 1972.
