“I am about to finish a kitchen remodel, done mostly nude. I rebuilt from bare studs, including plumbing, wiring, insulation, drywall, hardwood floor, and custom cabinets. I only got dressed when I had help that wouldn't understand. And yes I did both insulation and soldering copper nude.” – Natureboy1776, https://www.truenudists.com/forum/viewthread.php?id=38579&page=1

“Let’s not forget World Naked Gardening Day [in May] . . . I'm considering making (tasteful) flyers to push through the doors in my neighborhood.” – plewis, https://www.truenudists.com/forum/viewthread.php?id=2938&page=4

“I’ve practiced yoga for nearly 15 years now.  It wasn’t until recently that I began to practice in the nude. . . It wasn’t a ploy for attention and it certainly isn’t because I think that I am anything special.  That insecurity in fact, is exactly why I decided to do it.  To come face to face with the ‘fear of self.’  To force myself to learn to accept and love myself for all that I am.  To learn to accept the flaws until I can learn to see them as perfections and nothing less. . . I will stare down this demon until it realizes that, ‘I am not afraid.’  I have found a freedom and an honesty in shedding the layers.  Beginning this journey to a clothes free lifestyle has shown me the importance of self acceptance and even more so, what it means to live selflessly.” – Isaac, http://clothesfreelife.com/2016/01/08/clothes-free-yogi-january-isaac/

“I'm not one of those orthodox, separatist nudists.  I'm nude when it's convenient at home and I enjoy being nude in appropriate social situations.  I also like the way some clothes feel (especially when it's cold) and how some clothes make me look.  Being clothed and nude are both useful and pleasant, so I do them in that spirit.  Imagine how much more pleasant things would be if we could all be more relaxed and flexible in our attitudes and preferences.” – Legerdemain, https://www.truenudists.com/forum/viewthread.php?id=4371&page=1

“American nudism is built around the premise of paying for the ability to spend time being clothes free.  Nudist resorts, nude cruises and naturist clubs all require a substantial financial outlay.  If one is trying keep food on the table, a roof over your head and your kids and family alive and unincarcerated, spending money to be clothes free comes way down on the priority list.” - http://clothesfreelife.com/2016/02/29/the-state-of-the-community-naturismnudism-and-clothes-free-living-african-americans-and-the-clothes-free-community/
