Why does it seem like desert cultures tend to cover most of their body, while tropical cultures tend to wear very little clothing?
Like, I know that desert dwellers do it to protect their bodies from the sun, but isn't that also an issue in the tropics?

I don't actually know but maybe it has to do with high humidity favoring less clothing so your sweat helps cool you more effectively? Or perhaps the higher ease in finding shade in the tropics.
