“I tell people that I’m a nudist in the public mainstream on average one time a day.  I say it with passion, I say it with shamelessness, and I say it with pride. . . I’m on a mission to change the world.  I no longer want to retreat to an obscure tribe of people outside the mainstream society.  I want to change it. . . I now simply say, ‘I love being nude!’, which is instantly more appealing, interesting, and open conversation-inviting than anything I ever said before.  I’ll still call myself a nudist sometimes.  But it’s a phrase I’ll use less and less.” – Glen Donnelly, https://nudemovement.org/2016/07/30/why-i-no-longer-call-myself-a-nudist/

“It’s Getting Hot In Here: Should We Take Off All Our Clothes? . . . Why can’t we all just take off our clothes, and let others take off their clothes, and reap the benefits?” – Claire Fallon, http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2015/06/25/nudism-problems_n_7647806.html

“I am in a state of perplexity . . . I refuse to believe that some of you out there are still too prude and consequently shame the public display of a woman’s nipple, or too gross and constantly sexualize them.  Yet here we are, living in a society where natural selection has yet to rid us of these people. . . Are you really too bloody ignorant to realize that the primary function of a woman’s breast is to feed her children, not to be sexualized by the vulgar members of our population? . . . The first thing that really gets on my overly offensive tits, is when people sexualize breast feeding.  You have to be a special kind of sick to do that. . . I honestly don’t get why people are offended by nipples.” – Samantha O’Brian, https://samanthaxobrien.wordpress.com/2016/12/28/why-are-people-so-offended-by-female-nipples/

“I am planning on going for a sunset jog out on the trails [then] I will be stripping down for a walk in the woods.  It's a pretty public area with some seclusion so hopefully I can find some nude time.” – alrnudist, https://www.truenudists.com/group/hiking-nudist-sitting-in-the-woods/1/107154/3/

“True sexuality is in the mind and is based on a thought, a look, a touch or a suggestion.  Naturists have a very healthy sexuality because they are comfortable with their bodies and themselves.  They respect their own bodies and that of others, which leads to better relationships.  In fact, a research study in the 1980’s indicated that naturists had a lower incidence of deviant sexual behavior than the general population.” - http://www.bareoaks.ca/index.php/en/about-naturism/children.html
