You live your life in complete antithesis to mine.
You have no qualms with nudity, and that's your prerogative. You probably have no problems either in dating a promiscuous woman, or a woman who has had many sexual partners too.
If you meet a girl you like, it wont matter to you how many sexual partners she's had because unlike me, you're not bound by a set of moral codes. So long as it's all consensual, then all's good right?
It is therefore futile for me to explain to you the significance of Haya in my life, and for millions of other Muslimahs. To you, we're prudes, plain and simple. We don't know how to have sex [because we weren't taught] and this is further 'hampered' or exacerbated because we can't even discuss the topic openly like good ol' Westerners do, right?
You define all this as being antiquated and restricted, but I say, thank Allah for these 'restrictions'.
I don't wish to cause any offense to you - we're both adults [though my friends will attest to my lifelong struggle to avoid such a designation] so we should be able to speak directly from the heart and mind. Without the latter and we are in the realm of superstition. Speech without the former is like a pebble rattling on a dry ground.

I think this is a little too personal and unfounded. There are many assumptions you make about Variable as he is not a Muslim. As someone who has known him online for a while, I cannot fit this picture you have drawn of him with the image I have of him as well as others from his many posts. Not being a Muslim does not mean you are a moral reprobrate. He may not be a Muslim, but that does not mean he is not living his life in accordance with his Creator's guidelines. The Great Spirit is capable of speaking to us all and guiding us on the right path. To state that nudity, promiscuity and bad morals are part and parcel of his personal belief system is quite unfair and not representative of most westerners that I have met. There are many stereotypes that you have alluded to, but in the end they are just that.
