I don't think it would be a matter of sin, but a matter of shame. Would a man walk naked? Of course not because it would cause him to be ashamed. When Adam and Eve were naked their natural consciousness caused them to want to be clothed. The covering of our nakedness is natural conviction apart from any law just as Paul suggests of male and female hair.
Isn't it interesting that we are dealing with modesty issues. People would be ashamed of going down the street completely naked, but if they have on shorts up to their crotch they somehow feel covered? Every generation strips away one layer at a time. I think we are leaving are natural consciousness of things.
