“One of FSU’s [Florida State University] clubs that boasts varying degrees of awareness of is Naturally FSU, a club that practices and celebrates nudism.  Due to the somewhat unusual nature of a club that holds monthly skinny-dipping events and the apprehension most feel about being naked with others, it takes a lot of bravery to try but could become one’s newest way to naturally relax. . . Naturally FSU is one organization that supports the idea of expanding your comfort zone by stepping out of it.” - http://www.fsunews.com/story/life/2016/10/04/naturally-fsu-offers-nudist-way-life/91538180/

“There is something special about waking up at sunrise and going out into the garden, taking your clothes off and playing in the dirt au naturel. . . As you stand naked in a garden, you feel the world loosening around you.  Gardeners have known for ages that pottering around your petunias has stress-reducing benefits.  But now, there is a growing trend among nature lovers that says these benefits increase exponentially when you garden naked. . . communing with the pansies without panties, so to speak.  People often ask why we feel the need to take off our clothes to trim the fruit trees.  ‘Because it’s fun!’ . . . The sun is cleansing and provides that all-important vitamin D. . . Gardening in the nude is wonderful exercise.  We are getting in a good stretch while planting healthy foods and flowers.  And naked organic gardening makes my connection to the earth, sun, and water feel more meaningful. . . Mother Earth . . . gracefully urges us with her fruitful body to seek union with all living things.  Come into nature, she says.  Take your clothes off and garden with me. . . You can’t go wrong when you garden naturally.” – Jay North

“Most melanomas are not related to sun exposure, and therefore sunblock or avoiding sun exposure does not prevent melanoma. . . melanoma is directly related to family history . . . it a disease of gene mutations.” - Dr. Daniel Coit, https://thetruthaboutcancer.com/sun-exposure-cancer/?gl=582828491&mpweb=144-1473256-442413327

“. . .  you can also think one step further - and plan a total nakation, a weekend, or a week, or two, when you don't have to be concerned about wearing clothes at all.” - http://thenudeguru.blogspot.com/2018/06/

“I just suspect that naturists actively participating in parenting social networks can have a bigger impact than any amount of marches, legislative initiatives or ‘unlearning’ strategies.  How would you respond to a 5-year old about mom’s boobs or dad’s penis?  How about to an 11-year old boy about his older sister’s or sister's friend's growing chest?  Or to girl who can’t understand why she is required to wear a swim top at the beach or who is desperate to buy a first bra?  Or to a daughter (at various ages from pre-school to college) whom you want to be able to distinguish and be safe from sexual predators?  Don’t tell me!  Go share it on a social network!” – Adge, http://www.clothesfreeforum.com/forum/naturist-rooms/miscellaneous/548408-%E2%80%8Bunconscious-nakedness-parenting
