Nudism as a punishment

In this day and age it simply wouldn't work. The lady I met was from Eastern Europe (I think Ukraine); and being that she was 40ish at that time (pulling out my calculator), this would have occurred for her in the early 80's. So they probably had one landline and she wouldn't have been able to call anyone to drop off some clothes.
But yeah; in her case, "punishment by nudity" just basically turned her into a lifelong nudist.
