I think being dressed properly if you are part of a group video call or use 
services like Be My Eyes should go without saying whether you are a male or 
female and whether you have a perfect body or not.

Um yeah… I don’t need to be seeing anyone’s hairy nipples or pecks or tummy 
fluff.
I am in shape. I work out. Still, I don’t want to see your hairy pits and I’m 
sure you don’t want to see mine. I make sure if I use one of those services 
like BeMyEyes or if it’s anyone other than perhaps my wife, to put a shirt on.
