this is the old "you don't have anything to hide" mantra dressed up in more personal terms. people aren't perfect and they have the right to distrust their closest friends if they want to.

Of course they do. That's why modern operating systems have security.

It just doesn't make sense to insist that both (a) I want to leave everything unlocked and open; and (b) I don't want anyone to be able to see what's there.

You've got every right to protect your privacy from prying eyes. But if you want to do so, do it.
