QUOTES 5/8/2017

“Billions of dollars are spent on cosmetics, clothing, even surgery, to try and pretend we're not getting old.  Why?  Because we fear it.  Why?  Because we never see it.  Because we constantly hide our bodies from one another, we never get to see the natural aging life cycle of human bodies.  That which is hidden from us is mysterious and frightening.  If we could simply see human bodies in all the different stages of aging on a regular basis, it would be a familiar sight to us, a comfortable sight.  Aging would be a natural thing, not something to fight tooth and nail in dread.  Is it not emotional abuse to teach people to fear the natural life cycles of their own bodies?” – Creative, https://www.truenudists.com/groups/view.php?action=viewthread&id=2925&idt=14836&page=2

“When we were looking for a house, I told the estate agent that I wanted to be able go around naked. . . However secluded your garden, I think it is best to let neighbors know of your lifestyle, as you don’t have to worry about unexpected visits-they can make an informed choice, whether to call round or not. . . your near neighbors could decide to have a rear loft extension, so it best to have forewarned them, rather than panic, when the planning application is lodged.” – Peter, http://www.naturist-corner.net/community/index.php?topic=21052.0;topicseen

“Clothes are the modern ‘fig leaves’ we hide behind.  You could say they represent the common ‘fabric’ of our society.  Clothes denote rank and status, showing the world who we are, who we think we are, or who we want to be.  But take the clothing away - and we all stand on common ground as simple human beings devoid of rank, status, or competition with one another.” – Marc Umile, https://www.facebook.com/groups/nuddism/

“Your skin can’t breathe with all that covering.  And besides, I like to feel the cool air whistling over and under my yah-yahs.” - Liz Sexton, age 117, .” – http://www.huffingtonpost.com/mark-c-miller/science-reveals-women-who_b_914511.html

“My dad used to shower with me and my sister . . . it was great, because showering with daddy was fun!  He showed me how to shave (I'm a girl, but he showed me anyway) and we sang songs and stuff and it was the best thing ever.  Also, we had a shower with a ledge I could sit on, so we were almost at eye-level. . . he refused to put anything on in hot tubs, or when transferring from the shower to the bedroom . . .” – CheckeredFoxglove, http://offbeathome.com/parent-nudity-in-house/
