If some guy feels his wife is 'devalued' because some other man has seen her naked in a non-sexual way, then there is something seriously wrong with a guy who would feel like this and he needs to look at his own attitudes which seem to regard his wife as little more than chattel.
I am the first to say "deal with it, I can look after myself". That being said, do I want a partner who is cavalier about other people seeing me naked? Honestly, no, I want him to care. It may or may not change my behavior, but I want those protective instincts.
