Parental nudity - when does it stop being acceptable?

I have two Ds's age 1 and 3 and I freely shower, bath, dress in front of them. This is absolutely not an issue and it would not even cross my mind to close the loo door. At some stage in the future though, i suppose we will have to exercise a little more caution - for the kids embarrassment as much as our own! I appreciate that all kids and every family situation is different - but what's everyone else's view of when parental nudity stops being acceptable, or when it becomes a bit embarrassing (for either party)? Does gender make a difference? Any views (or funny stories) mumsnetters? Would stress that we are not "social nudists" - am just talking about getting dressed etc - naturism is a whole different ballgame that I don't want to get into on this thread!!!

DH tends to pull on under pants because he vaguely feels he ought to and I don't give a fuck.

DD1 (15) doesn't care, quite happily get her dad to do up her bra. DD2 (12) throws you out when she's dressing, but often forgets if she wants something.

My parents never worried, small bungalow with only one bathroom/toilet. Never bothered locking the door, if someone needed the loo while you were in the bath they just went.

Nakedness just doesn't register on my radar, BFing in public, pg 3, naked pictures on mags don't bother me. Never understand why people get up tight in changing rooms. Simple nakedness isn't sexual to me.

A lot of It's the constant shoots of women in very deliberately sexy outfits, even the less revelling ones I hate. I hate women being objects to look at and judge even at school or work, not simply being people.
