Transcript:
Calvin: You know, there must be thousands of animal species, and of all of them, only humans wear clothes. Isn't that weird? I wonder why other animals don't wear clothes. Hobbes: If our naked pink butts showed, we probably would. Calvin: Our butts are just fine!

I’d say it’s ‘cause of our fragile, thin, fur-less skin and so we need clothes to adapt to different climates. That and ’cause we’re self conscious and feel the need to cover ourselves up.

I dunno, Hobbes, it doesn’t seem to bother chimps or baboons.

Apparently, Calvin’s not familiar with the spider decorator crab. It attaches pieces of organisms such as sponges and seaweed to its shell, disguising itself from predators.

Watterson could get away with that “pink” comment back in ‘93, but I wouldn’t try it today! Comments like that went the way of “flesh colored” band aids!
