“I have been a naturist since I was a child. . . It's one of the most rewarding things is to be comfortable with yourself. . . Naturism will always have the stereotypical negativity from some minorities because the word 'nude' is also associated with sex. . . It baffles me when someone is offended by a nude, human body, whether it's a female nipple, vagina or a penis.  We all have them. . . I would love to walk down the street in my local area without the need to get dressed. . . [Not to alarm or distress] anybody but to be myself and how I feel most comfortable.  Naturism is a natural part of every living being. . . we naturists prefer to be nude not just for bathing but for our comfort and wellbeing while enriching our confidence in the process. . .  naturism offers respect to everybody and no human body is disgusting.  These prudish minorities should respect us back. . . Life is a precious gift and so is the body. . . Each and every person is a work of art.” – Lucy Moore quoting Anthony Crowley, http://www.femalefirst.co.uk/vegan/anthony-crowley-vegan-976787.html

“If I'm out naked walking in a textile area I will always cover up, hopefully well before they see me, as I have respect for them, as for looking at the law side textiles have it their way ‘I was shocked’ so why spoil your walk as it is so easy to ‘cover up’ let them past and then carry on as before.” – Richard, http://www.naturist-corner.net/community/index.php?topic=21282.0;topicseen

“When you are nude, you don't outwardly show what class or social group other people belong to.  This makes it easier to approach people, without building a stereotype about the person you’re about to meet.  Personally, I have found it easier to strike up conversations with people twice my age, that I most likely would have never talked to if we were clothed.” - http://www.naturismisthewayforward.com/2016/07/6-best-things-to-do-while-nude.html

“Seldom do we think of our clothes as a shield.  We are all naked, always.  When one picks out an outfit to wear over top of their skin, it still reflects vulnerability; be it the suit, the tie, the jumper, the sideways fullback baseball hat.  Seldom do we think of our clothes as a shield, rather we tend to relate our stylistic dressings within the confines of self-expression.  I understand that clothes shield us from the elements, but to ascertain our drive to use such a practical application to create a barrier is in my opinion, silly.” - http://www.fullydisclothed.com/duncan
