I'm going to compare keeping a slave totally naked vs keeping a slave clothed in general.
Totally naked: Slave is subhuman and does not enjoy the privilege of being clothed in the presence of Master. A slave should be stripped of all dignity to enforce its position as an owned slave. Though this scenario will work best in a tropical climate, it can be a challenge doing this in the thick of winter. This bring me to the idea of having the slave clothed. Can a slave get used to his nakedness?? If yes, some dynamics of stripping a guy will be lost. Hence comes, keeping a slave clothed.
Clothed: This can take many forms, only underwear or short shorts (you know I'm a sucker-punch for guys that look good in underwear/speedos!), and/or with a sleeveless muscle-T or wife-beaters. In this situation, slave is still dress lesser than its Master but can be presented to a larger audience (perhaps in public) without crossing the line of being totally naked. Keeping the slave on the edge of knowing that he can be stripped naked easily at anywhere and any time is something that can be appealing.
