“Naturism is the ultimate expression of trust in yourself and others.” – Kensunwalker

“I drove a U-haul truck from Sacramento to LA with only my shoes on.  I heard (unverified) that having shoes to safely operate the peddles is more of an issue than clothing.  Great fun.  Discretion won out at gas and snack stops. . . Gym shorts are handy.  I was able to have a soda at a rest stop overlooking Pyramid Lake.  I parked away from others and sat on the wall watching the moon over the lake and canyon - beautiful sight and feeling. . . My wife and I have driven 60 miles from a nude resort to home in the nude - great fun.” – 85Springer

“When our decorator came to 'freshen-up' our hallway he carried on with his work pretty much as he always has, apart from his almost obligatory 'joke' about nakedness, he just does his work and whistles his way through. . . He told us that his wife and her dad would be calling by to bring his phone which was his 'work phone' and invaluable, he had mistakenly picked up the wrong one on his way out.  When they arrived, on their way to town, he went to the door to collect his phone and briefly speak to them.  Without a seconds thought he asked his wife and her father to step in and meet us, to him it was a reasonable action.  BUT, when they stepped into our lounge and saw myself and my wife along with our niece and her partner all naked, she screamed!  Her dad blasted some really strong language, all hell came loose in our lounge!  In one swift action (instinctive reaction truthfully!) I made ALL of them leave instantly!  My wife and I along with my niece's partner, herded the abusive people straight back out of our house.  The yelled ‘PERVERTS!’ at us, we just yelled back ‘Go Out Textile Terrorists’ and a sort of peace came back to us around half an hour later!” – Patrick Thompson, http://www.naktiv.net/blog/1110/textile-phone-outrage/

“Granted, some clothes offer protection, but when you consider it will be virtually impossible to conceal weapons, the safety risks and benefits will hopefully cancel each other out.” – Dean Burnett, https://www.theguardian.com/science/brain-flapping/2016/aug/25/beyond-burkinis-why-science-suggests-all-clothes-should-be-banned

“I have gone out bare-chested — quite a few times actually.  I love swimming and go probably once a week and haven’t worn a top once.  I have been hearing and talking with a lot of women who are exercising their rights. . . Thankfully, most of my experiences and most of the women I see talking about theirs, have been positive.  I do believe more people are in support or indifferent to it.” - https://breastsarehealthy.wordpress.com/2016/08/31/live-topfree-or-die-roses-and-thorns-from-new-hampshire/

“Naturists are comfortable in their own skin.” – Kensunwalker
QUOTES 5/15/2017

“Nude hiking in Oregon is at best challenging.  Not because you can’t find a great location but because the weather discourages it.  I am a warm weather hiker and it had been awhile since experiencing the joy and freedom of a nude hike. . . I accidently found a very large BLM land park. . . around 10 am I entered the park and kept my eyes open for footprints in the sand.  The only ones I spotted were a set of human and dog prints going in and returning out.  So I felt fairly secure that I had the park to myself. . . I was able to spend almost two hours nude hiking.  It was if the sun decided to give me a gift.  The sand dunes blocked the coast wind and it was wonderful.  Every once-in-awhile I would be at the top of a dune and the wind was strong and chilly.  The silence of being there was a gift in itself.  The blue sky and sunshine were like an added gift that I did not take for granted. . . this time of the year I long for nude camping in the mountains, hiking the trails, and ending the day soaking in some hot springs. . . Incredible that there is a place in Oregon where one can be nude, hike and be alone.  One of Oregon's treasures for sure.  I hike a lot in the national forest but this hike is one of my favorites - no people, no dogs, no noise and no litter.” - Shirley

“As a young woman, my fiancee was an out-doors-man.  We enjoyed camping in the woods and weekends away from the city.  My very first nudist experience involved frolicking in the woods, without clothes.  I enjoyed the early afternoon sun peeping through the forest.  I hiked free, with only my socks and sneakers.  The summer breeze kissed my bare skin and the glimmer of sun warmed my back.  It was so quiet and peaceful.  There were no other people, only nature, the forest and him.  My first experience was terrific and I could not wait to enjoy this serenity, again.” - No Bathing Suits

“Nearly everyone has to work to make a living.  Work normally gets in the way of healthy naturist practice.  At times I just ache for the opportunity to work nude.  To be in the sun, to live life the way I most enjoy - healthy, naked.” – Ken Freehiker

“Took an hour+ drive home from getting my dad's motorhome and driving home naked!  In a word...driving a motorhome naked is...AWESOME!  What a great feeling and great way to drive relaxed and comfortable. . . I loved it and can't wait to do it a few times more before I return the motorhome next week!  I think I'm gonna buy this motorhome and love every minute of ownership and driving nude in it!!” – FireProf

“Naked people are just people - nudity is no big deal.” – Kensunwalker
QUOTES 5/14/2017

“My first nudist experience was as a kid while camping.  I remember wanting to do this a few times, but one morning I got up early before everyone else and walked to a private spot in the woods and got naked and stayed that way for about 15 minutes before I lost my nerve and got dressed.  I loved that experience and from that day I was hooked and got nude out in the woods every chance I could get.” – Inudist

". . . on the Sunday afternoon with Polly . . . The day dawned blue and we set off . . . I quickly stripped off my t-shirt + shorts and we were heading steadily up the slope towards the hut above when two middle-aged women came trundling down and passed us with a minimal exchange of good cheer.  Another walker, and more uphill, and after an hour or so, Polly and I reached the traversing trail from the hut which goes along the base of the soaring cliffs of the Widderstein above us.  Here we had a stupendous view of the Salopaner ski region, a remote lake and mild forests tucked away on the other side of the valley. . . We strode on, with Polly taking a dip in a snow lake and the opportunity for a refreshing drink.  Another couple, and a small family, and an exchange of pleasantries, before I headed across the valley to the ridge on the opposite side. . . Walking along the ridge was simply gorgeous, a view down to Schroecken on one side and across to the Braunarlspitze massife, the Widderstein behind us, and all around huge rocks pushing their way up through the mountainous turf, a gentle breeze to accompany the bright warm sunshine at 2000m.  We kept along the narrow ridge, passing two male walkers, another couple, and finally a man and two fairly mature ladies.  The first lady exclaimed with a smile when she saw me: ‘my goodness, a naked man - what are we two 'jungfrauen', (young girls, implying maidens/virgins), to do - we have never seen such a thing!’  I had to laugh, and they passed with otherwise good grace . . . I reached the top of the Hoeferspitze (2131m) at approx 13:00 and time for a short lunch break. . . The views were glorious, the position serene, but when one's walking, one has to keep moving. . . Returning to the B&B for an early shower I stayed the night as I was a tad dehydrated from the high sunshine, and exertions of the day." - Rich

“Anything you used to do clothed will be a new and better experience if done naked.” - http://ldsnaturism.blogspot.com/p/quotes.html

“Everyone I’ve painted nude — mostly women, but a few men — has said it’s a completely positive experience . . . These aren’t people with Hollywood bodies, but they find affirmation in the process and the result.  For example, I was commissioned to paint a woman nude because her husband had died the year before.  She did it in a sense of renewal.” - Artist Cloe Cloherty
