I have had Star Wars too much on my mind (hey, for once, my blog is getting lots of comments; only on SW posts, though). I momentarily misread this as "naked Yoda."

When nine hundred years old you reach, look as nude you will not.

I imagine, actually, that the concept of "auto-eroticism" could be taken to certain heights by a Jedi Meister.

and while we're on the subject, so to speak, am I the only one who thinks that Lois Lane must have been using some pretty awsome protection?

I ll just say "speed of light"...

Larry Niven wrote an essay on the subject once upon a time:

"Man of Steel, Woman of Kleenex"

Naked yoga is nothing; try naked fencing.

Linky no worky, DE. (Welcome back, BTW!)

I fenced for a while in high school, and the legend of the guy who'd been speared in the right nut by an epee, with consequent swelling to the size of a grapefruit, was trotted out for every newbie to walk through the door.

Hmmm... worked before. Try this.

I fenced in college, but never nude. [Trivia for Farber: Ben Bova and I had the same fencing coach.] I can't imagine lunging without a good sports bra, to be honest.

My college had moved to the all-electronic prancing-whip style by the time I got there, which took all the fun out of it for me. I got into fencing to recreate sword fighting, not play "who can barely touch the other the quickest."

Also, repeated groin pulls in my right leg. (I know, stretching, but...)
