QUOTES 2/6/2018

“I think we can all agree that the visitors of a spa aren’t exactly the same as the people on a naturist resort.  Naturists can visit a spa, but it doesn’t mean that all spa visitors are naturists.  There are some values in our naturist community that separate them from them.  One of them is the level of mutual respect for the people around us. . . [I asked friends about their] first experience with naturism.  One of the aspects they both mentioned was that no one was staring or judging.  Something they unfortunately did notice in the saunas they visit.” - https://harmenjp.wordpress.com/2016/11/19/we-went-to-our-favorite-naturist-resort-with-two-textile-friends/

“I was born at a nudist resort, actually lived there for a few months . . . and spent most of my childhood going there with my family in lieu of the more typical parks and beaches most kids go to.  My father, sister, her children, and I all still go out there a few times a year.  My dad . . . never wears clothes unless he has to . . . I have seen thousands of people naked in my life, but never once have I seen an erect one in person (obviously, I am female).  Sexual behavior of any kind is not allowed at the resort . . .” – Renegade, http://www.knowable.com/a/nudists-reveal-surprising-details-about-their-lifestyle-?utm_content=inf_10_3136_2&tse_id=INF_47a28f50b0d411e687e8ddfefce09c02

“Nudity does not equal sex.  All nudists will tell you one of the first surprises of social nudity is that while it can be romantic for you and your spouse, it isn’t a sexually charged environment.” - https://ourclothingoptionaltrips.wordpress.com/2016/10/30/no-better-place-to-take-it-all-off-than-a-hot-spring/

“Doing chores naked makes for easier cleanup and enjoyable work.” – Jack, Personal Email

“. . . naturism is a life philosophy with physical, psychological, environmental, social and moral benefits. . . nudity is key to body acceptance . . . we are not clothing-optional.  Clothing is worn only for protection. . . Naturists take their clothes off for themselves and out of respect for others. . . Naturism is a form of therapy that will help you realize that bodies comes in all shapes and sizes.  With time, you'll come to appreciate that older bodies also reveal the marks of a well-lived life.” - http://www.bareoaks.ca/index.php/en/about-bare-oaks-family-naturist-park/first-visit.html?platform=hootsuite
