“Naturists believe in body acceptance. Most report feeling less self-conscious on a
nude beach than on a traditional clothed beach. . . suggestively clothed people
are more arousing than completely nude people.
It can be more sexual to wear a bathing suit which subtly hides and
emphasizes certain parts of the body.” – Leah Moore, https://www.facebook.com/groups/nuddism/permalink/1779245615686085/

“Nude swimming became less and less common in the
mid-1970s . . . But nude swimming is sort of an interesting exception to the
general pattern of our culture becoming less Victorian as time goes on. Today, if some head of aquatics at the Y suggested
naked swimming, let alone tried to actually implement it, they’d probably lose
their job immediately.” - http://www.vocativ.com/culture/fun/fairly-recently-ymca-actually-required-swimmers-nude/
“Finland’s oldest public pool – swimsuits optional -
Helsinki’s Yrjönkadun uimahalli (swimming hall) opened in 1928 and while
swimsuits have been allowed since 2001 they are still optional. This is Finland’s oldest public swimming pool
and men and women swim on separate days.” – Mel Inhelsink, https://heyhelsinkiblog.com/2015/01/05/finlands-oldest-public-pool-swimsuits-optional/
“The Puritanical Legacy! Damn those Puritans! Made all that much worse by the Victorian Age
which brought us crazy inventions like the girdle and petticoats. Who, exactly, sat down and decided that it
would be good for humanity to obscure every contour and curve of the female
body, while at the same time, creating the ultimate phallic symbol known today
as the necklie.”
“. . . there has been a consistent pattern over the
past hundred years when it comes to humans getting naked. . . People were
looking for a place to get naked . . . The tradition grew until it was no
longer possible to mandate, let alone enforce ‘acceptable behavior,’ until
eventually, some of the naked people decided to push the boundaries of
sexuality. . . fill in any number of ‘naturist places’ that begin with the best
of intentions, but at the end of the day, people come to spend their naked
dollars (euros, francs) or they don’t.
Money speaks louder than an imposed sense of morality. . . the right to
get naked followed some initiative of commercial development.” - https://meanderingnaturist.wordpress.com/2015/08/23/actually-things-are-getting-better-for-naked-people/
