Ginger includes Cheri Caffaro's first nude scenes. She was 25 at the time. In a 1974 interview, she explained why she decided to get naked and how it was very upsetting. "Nudity is one way to get into the movies. I'm not saying it's the best way, but right now (the early 1970s) we're going though a nude cycle so you have to go along with it." She started auditioning for movies in her early 20s, but they all required nudity, which she did not want to do. But, she said, she finally got tired of fighting it after not being cast in anything. "I took the role of Ginger....There were some nude scenes in the picture, but I decided it would be all right." When the time came to film her first scene, suddenly she was not so sure. "I looked at all of the technicians and crew members and got upset. But I'd signed the contract and I don't believe in not keeping my word. So I stepped in front of the camera without a stitch on." When she noticed the mostly male group staring at her, she remembers blushing all over. Director Don Schain was so impressed with her, he cast her for the sequel, where she again spent considerable time running around and even performing fight scenes naked, as well as having steamy borderline X-rated sex scenes with naked guys. At that point, Caffaro said being exposed in front of everyone was habit forming. She and Schain started a relationship and soon got married. He directed her in a few more films and asked his wife to get naked in all of them. She said being married to him actually made her more comfortable and secure being nude. She then joked that the naked male actors she had sex scenes with were a lot more nervous, because they knew they were kissing her and fondling her body in front of her husband.
