I think you've just answered your own question :)
And a quick trawl through the site will quickly show that you're far from alone. Maybe start at somewhere like https://purpleport.com/page/stats/membersOnline
Oh very helpful may as well post that link in every thread started. 🙄

Do all photographers shoot nudes....
Sometimes this site gives the impression that they all do.... Whether they all 'should' is another question entirely..!

Oh, there's no problem in shooting them.
Whether we should bother to share them is the separate question ;)

I usually wear a T-shirt and jeans.

If you don't challenge yourself you will never know if you can improve. Remember that an experienced nude model will have lots of ideas. Use them. Before the shoot give the model a mood board to work around.

Surely if there's a question around whether some photographers "should" shoot nudes then does that not raise the question as to whether some "models" should shoot nude too?

I have, do, but less and less often. For me, the point is why? What am I trying to achieve with the image? If nudity is the central part of the concept, or significantly contributes to it, then fine, but never for the sake of it. But what others do - I don’t have an opinion. If they want to shoot nudes for the sake of it - fine,

When I was shooting I primarily shot nudes. I blame my wife - my first model who I shot at her request. She liked the results and said ‘looks like you have a flair for this’. The rest is history.

I've shot nude when I had a concept where it felt right but it's rare. I tend to find most of my ideas are clothed but that might be because I really enjoy creating outfits and themes 😊

I don't, not just because of work but also because I find most nude images boring. There are some very well thought-out ones on here, but I see most as just displaying a distinct lack of imagination.
Each to their own, however!

Have done, cba now on a personal choice level. Unless it's a genre you excel in, get enjoyment from or generate a revenue, don't really see the point and that goes for trains, birds on sticks and many other genres.
