“I'm 21 years old.  I have always loved being a naked.  However, I'm a Catholic and I'm not sure if nudism is the right lifestyle.  I believe in modesty and chastity, but I don't know if nudism is compatible with that in any way.  I have a big family, and I still live with them, so getting naked has always been risky because I don't want them to find out.  I sometimes sneak out at night and take off my clothes and walk around and even climb trees naked.  I enjoy it a lot.  Right now I'm sitting naked in full daylight as I write this, and hopefully nobody will find me.  I've never experienced social nudism, but maybe someday I'll find a nudist beach or club when I move out and am on my own.” – Anonymous, http://aanr.com/first-time-nudist-experience&page=5

“American ‘nudists’ have a tendency toward weirdness. . . By that, I mean, we’ll lie by the pool all day and have casual conversation about the genuine qualities of being naked in public, blah, blah, blah… but then the sun goes down and everyone shows up in crazy lingerie outfits for the ‘grown-ups party.’” - https://meanderingnaturist.wordpress.com/2012/12/

“What little research has been done has generally not been replicated. . . Thus, we are left with the advice of Dr. Spock, who warned us of dire consequences resulting from children's exposure to nudity but who performed no research of his own – apparently his conclusions were based on one anecdotal incident involving his own son.  Dr. Joyce Brothers, who warns parents of ‘terrible guilts and frustrations’ that children suffer from being exposed to normal nudity, also performed no research of her own and apparently based her conclusions on her work with emotionally disturbed children . . . some widely published ‘experts’ are not experts at all, but rather individuals with personal opinions who also happen to be widely read by parents who trust that those opinions are based on formal research.” – Bill Peckenpaugh, http://nudebeaches.co.nz/nudism_and_families.html

“This feels like a community where we’re celebrating the human body.  If someone’s uncomfortable with the idea, there are other beaches.  It’s uncomfortable for the nudists when clothed people show up because we feel like they’re only here for a show.” - Morgan Servinis, http://torontolife.com/city/life/hanlans-point-nude-beach-clothing-optional-streeter/

“I drive naked on long trips . . . It helps me stay awake and more conscience of what’s going on around me.  A night breeze through the windows is a beautiful feeling.” - https://www.truenudists.com/groups/view.php?action=viewthread&id=2361&idt=102713&vpage=1
