It can work both ways such that you can work on self-acceptance, knowledge, or growth and have it make the revealing easier.

When I was in college I got a Christmas gift from a friend, a bra and panties set and went next door to model it for her, not realizing that her boyfriend was in her single dorm room. . . alone. I was there and revealed :-) so I used my head and realized that it did not look that different from a bathing suit, it probably wasn't something he hadn't ever seen before and I modeled it for him, in my best modelling style

We can undress and find out is is/is not too warm or cold for ourselves or we can decide we are/are not too warm or cold and undress/put on clothes.
