Self-Removing Loincloth: Yay or Nay?

[thehangingtree]

From "Aristocrux" starring Jane von Detlefson: the executioner shows how its done...

The executioner pleases the crowd gathered to see her crucifixion. She may not be pleased with being exposed, but what dignity does one have when condemned to death on the cross???

The crowd cheers as she is exposed!!!

The one ahead is clearly in the proces of failing!

One thing about crucifixion that fascinates me is the discussion surrounding one item, the loincloth. For the record, I find nudity to be an important part of crucifixion, however, I do like the idea of the loincloth being removed after the cross has been raised, but that poses an interesting question. How should the loincloth be removed? Should it be forcibly removed by the guards? Or should it be tied in such a way that it ends up falling off as the condemned dances the dance of the cross

I prefer to see the condemned brought to the place of execution fully dressed, then forcibly stripped of their clothing down to aloincloth bwfore nailing and raising the cross, where the victim can be finally forcibly stripped of the loincloth.

I voted nay, but if you were being crucified or on the cross with a self-removing loincloth it would add a dynamic of dread and tension which would be a turn-on knowing that you only have limited time with your one remaining dignity, the countdown to your full exposure and humiliation of total nakedness is getting closer and closer to zero!!

Until the cross, the condemned should still wear a loincloth, but on the cross one is naked.
People should walk as they were once born - naked.

In "The Via Crucis of Camille Crux 1" starring Camille Duka the executioner demonstrates his technique for forcibly removing those pesky loincloths (there are other examples in the series)...
