You are right, but we also wouldn't have to send clothes in by boat or plane to get clothes to them, you can drive them in from Wal-mart from the next town inland. If you can fit a limited amount of cargo per shipment, it is stupid to send clothing if there isn't enough water.
I lived in Jamaica when I was a kid. We would go to the beach, and my brother and I were pretty much the only kids wearing swim trunks. Naked kids are not a big deal there.
Not everyone in the world is as hung up on nudity as we are.
