ELI5:Why we learned to cover our private parts with clothing?

Why humans had the need to cover their private parts with clothing and how that need started?

We don't know. This is all purely speculation, but here it goes anyway: "Presenting" is extremely important for reproduction. It's entirely possible that clothing served as a tool to strengthen the "presenting" signal. What was out of sight out of mind, becomes very much part of your focus. It's not advantageous for one sex to try misinterpret sexual signals. A woman bending over and accidentally exposing her vagina could falsely start responses in males. The sight of the vagina can be covered until the female "presents", making for a much stronger stimulus that is hard to misinterpret. The same thing can go for males and erections, etc. The moving aside of the loincloth to expose your bits to each other is pretty hard to misinterpret.
