Naturist View

QUOTES 5/29/2020

“It feels like I have X-ray vision. I see naked people. . . Beachside, I’ve never seen so many willies or boobs at once.  The bodies they belong to are fat and thin, young and old, short and tall.  As I sit there, conspicuous in my bikini bottoms, I realize they are simply that – bodies.  There is nothing erotic or pervy about it.  The atmosphere is laid-back, friendly and overwhelmingly democratic.” - Jane Cornwell, http://metro.co.uk/2010/08/19/el-portus-spain-easy-on-the-naked-eye-484534/

“My mother raised my sisters and I in the [naturist] lifestyle.  My father was always traveling and because it was just us girls, we didn’t see the point of putting on clothes.  I guess we weren’t really ‘Nudists’ just 4 females who loved being naked around the house, in the garden or at the beach.  I’ve always been a nudist and I will continue to be a nudist.  I don’t understand clothes, and I don’t like wearing them.  If I do wear clothes I keep them light and airy.  My skin needs to be free!” – Sophie, https://thenakedadvice.wordpress.com/2017/02/23/busting-myths-on-nudism-with-sophie-rolstad-the-nude-writer/

“The next time you are thinking about heading to the nude beach, on a nuse cruise, or just to sit at a beach bar with a cold one, just remember you should do it because it’s GOOD FOR YOU!” – Katie Rain, nudistusa.com, Vol. 8, # 12, p. 11.

“Nudist children are frequently together with family, friends, and strangers in nudist environments and it does not make a difference as long as the same behavior applies as when wearing clothes - i.e. no active sexual behavior.” - SteveYna, https://youngnaturistsamerica.com/nudist-moms-home-nude-family-nudism-etiquette-kids/

“I have worn the kilt where possible for a number of year now . . . Wearing the kilt is truly the best of both worlds, kilts and nudism.  Of course, I always wear my kilt regimentally.” – Dave, https://www.truenudists.com/group/kilt-loving-nudists/1/73310/

“What a weekend!  Been naked since 8:00 pm Thursday night, went to beach to tan nude, did all chores nude (inside and outside), took trash to curb nude and retrieved mail nude...what a weekend.” – Sportsdude, https://www.truenudists.com/group/everyday-naked-living-revamped/1/110532/

Everyone is naked a times - sleeping, bathing, sex.  So in truth, nakedness is everywhere.  I just enjoy being a little more open.  I love being out doors naked.

How about you?

“Once I moved to the ‘big city’ to begin my adult career, I looked for nudists and naturists to get to know.  It was easier than I thought that it would be.  I started getting invited to homes of new friends, who held nude social gatherings, often parents bringing their children (which underscores the non-sexual nature of real nudism and naturism), and found beaches, public and private, where I could enjoy myself nude.” – David K., https://thanakedi.wordpress.com/2016/11/29/a-friends-story-about-nudism-in-his-life/

“Danish children don’t grow up paralyzed by the fear of being laughed at . . . While I spent my school career avoiding the showers after PE, in Denmark friends tell me they were made to shower together after every class, with no separate cubicles. . . All the way through kindergarten and grade school you take the showers and that’s just what you do.  You get used to it.” - Polly Phillips. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/wellbeing/mood-and-mind/how-to-love-your-body---------------------------the-danish-way-h/

“Being naked . . . doesn’t expose you at all – it makes you anonymous and equal. . . This is a huge discovery and probably the most important one, as it explains why our body is not sexual by nature, we have sexualized it over time.  Gaining our freedom back to be naked makes us better.” - Abigail Moss, https://nuetheureux.wordpress.com/2016/11/21/my-first-time-at-a-nudist-resort/

“I’m quite proud of it.  Not showing off my bits.  I’m proud of that fact that I got out of my comfort zone. . . My attitude towards nudity hasn’t changed because of this but it has made me think about what my attitude is. . . I’m comfortable with my body and what nudity is. . . If you’re not sure how you feel about nudity, get nude.” - Oscar, https://www.theguardian.com/nude-art-from-the-tate-collection/2016/nov/22/recreating-the-kiss-going-nude-in-the-name-of-art

“I get comfortable almost as I'm walking through our gate after work unless it's chilly out.  I'm nude most of the time in the house.  If I'm chilly, I find that if I put on slippers (dearfoams), I am warmer.  If worse comes to worse, I put a robe over my shoulders. . . Today my husband asked if he could take a look in my car to find something that he's misplaced.  I just handed him the keys.  I can usually get away with going out to where I park the car as there is much foliage.” – Cheri

Freehiking in June 2019

This week Naturists of Northern Arizona (NNAZ) freehiked the Mingus Mountain Trail.  Two members cleaned up much of the trail the Wednesday before the group hike.  Then on Monday the 10th eight members gathered for the actual hike.

It was difficult meeting up with everyone at first because some were new and didn't know where the trail started.  However, we eventually met and enjoyed a naked walk together.  Even with a shady trail, the day was a little hot.  Still, enjoying nature naked with friends is always wonderful.  Hopefully others will join us next month.  Let us know if you are interested.

Discussion

Friendliness is a hallmark of naturism.  If you're a loner, being naked is incomplete and simply wrong headed.  Sure, nakedness alone can be a spiritual experience, and a great way to start, but one is not a complete naturist until he or she is nakedness with others.

I cherish my naked friends!  How about you?

I so enjoy being with others who share my compassion for nakedness, and so enjoy naked activities.  I started my naked journey with freehiking.  I really like nude karaoke.  Naked games of all types are fun.  Just talking with others in a pool is nice.  What naked activities do you most enjoy?
