I've had skin agitated by chemical treatments to clothing, too. There are common chemicals, one which is used to manufacture a certain toilet paper that gets to me immediately. It has been used in fabric. The name escapes me. Cooped in and perspiring for extended times, will help other chemicals to agitate skin through pores's transpiration..
There are toxins which are flushed out of the skin. These can be exacerbated by perspiration and trapped and rubbed into skin causing welts and sores and itches, etc. On a hot day, clothing is unhealthy, if not an insane choice.
Many chemical manufacture's scents are added to clothing, detergent and many other products. It can produce allergic reactions. Allergic reactions can be learned, too, like I'm allergic to many perfumes. By extension, the perfume on clothing gets to me. Scented dryer sheets can be harmful and the anti-static film can irritate skin.
Dryers can also create not just static cling, but electromagnetic agitation and sticking. I had a sleeping problem that was eradicated by anti-static. I could see the sparks in the dark on the sheets! I finally realized why had been laying awake for hours. This applies to clothing. The electromagnetic wavelength that keep people awake cause unnatural energetic body responses when they are in clothing. This is a health concern, that has been covered over, or ignored. If it is making me uncomfortable for hours at a time, it probably isn't good for me, and in the least, disruptive to my day. I can remember times when a shirt would get me to itching and agitated.
Are these not allergies? Are there not people who are more sensitive to allergic reactions of certain things that others. Is tis cured by desensitization exercises, or is it just something telling us something that needs to be told?
ric, Perhaps suspenders would make a compromise. They cause crotch cling wedgies, but that can be modified. Ask any clown. Or, running shorts, which are lightweight with an elastic band?
Lack of clothing makes me less aware of the dangers around me. I rub up against, get poked, etc, more when clothed and shod. The hot tin roof at the other end of that ladder is another matter.
The most damning evidence of the harmful effects of clothing, including bad fit, is the obvious fact that it always feels so good to take clothes off, move freely, the skin breathes and feels good, one is more in touch and relaxed. Dang, ain't it apparent?
