“Let's All Talk NUDE Quietly and Begin to Change the
World! . . . Apparel and other items with fun nudist/naturist related slogans
are a PERFECT way to talk nude with non-nudists or closeted nudists.” –

“It has been my practice over several years to
continue naked as if it was as normal as hiking clothed. My theory is that the more often people see
naked bodies and nothing bad happens, the less uptight they are about seeing
naked bodies. When some majority of
people have occasionally seen naked people and it becomes ‘ho hum’ then being
naked will not be shocking or illegal.
Over the years I must have encountered a couple hundred clothed people
while hiking naked. Most of the time I
just ‘howdy’ them as I walk past naked.
Reactions are mixed. One woman
who was sitting to rest as I came past said, ‘I wish I could do that.’ I stopped to chat . . . Three women walking
the other way through a large open field moved about 10 yards off the trail so
as not to pass too close. They didn't
say anything. . . Most clothed hikers just respond with a ‘Good morning’ or
some such greeting much as they would for a clothed hiker. If I look ‘guilty’ and embarrassed and lurch
into a cover then I'm guilty and embarrassed and ought to have been covered. If I'm confident and naked and project
normalcy while naked then I'm usually accepted as a version of normal. It's important to PLAN to act naked and
normal, or you will have to figure out what to do when suddenly confronted and
it won't work out very well.” - Bob Knows
“Hesiod was an ancient Greek poet with a few
interesting opinions about how to conduct yourself while farming, including the
apparent belief that you should inspire fruitfulness in your crop by doing all
the hard work without any clothes on.
‘Sow naked, plough naked, and harvest naked,’ he recommends . . .” – JR

“There are cultural traditions going back at least to
the Greeks that nudity is appropriate for men in certain contexts like
athletics. But for women, nudity is
associated, at best, with slaves, and at worst with harlots and whores. . .
Since current attitudes towards nudity are harsher where women are involved,
women will benefit more when it is possible for a person to say without
embarrassment or shame that she/he really likes to be naked.” - https://www.facebook.com/groups/nuddism/

“Are you comfortable with your naked self? . . . Our
naked self is an important part of who we are.
Nudity is a natural state, but it’s often seen as something vulnerable
and personal. Many cultures teach us
that nudity is something to hide and to be ashamed of. This makes us create a prison surrounding who
we really are. . . Back in 1967, there was a small, underground movement in
psychology that was called ‘nude psychotherapy.’ The central concept was that by becoming more
comfortable with our own nudity, we also become more comfortable with
ourselves. . . The humanistic psychologist Abraham Maslow also reflected a keen
interest in nude therapy. He saw it as a
way for people to become more free, more spontaneous, and less guarded – an
important part of ‘self-actualization,’ which he saw as the ultimate goal of
living a happy and satisfying life…Loving our naked self is important, so how
do we do it? The key is to become more
comfortable with being naked, which means practicing being naked more often (not
just when we need to take a shower or change clothes).” – Steven Handel, http://www.theemotionmachine.com/naked-meditation-how-to-completely-accept-your-naked-self

“Nature was not meant to be experienced clothed. Once you feel the breeze on your naked skin
and the cool earth beneath your bare feet, you’ll realize that all earlier
experiences were like looking at the world through a darkened window.” – Peter

“Being able to live your daily life without wearing

“Scout Willis, the
23-year-old daughter of actors Bruce Willis and Demi Moore . . . took to the
streets herself. Topless, Willis strode
through lower Manhattan wearing nothing but tan flat shoes, a knee-length skirt
patterned with flowers and a black purse slung over her bare shoulder. Paparazzi captured her bare-breasted jaunt. .
. Willis explained her motivation in an essay published on the website XO
Jane. ‘What I am arguing for is a
woman’s right to choose how she represents her body—and to make that choice
based on personal desire and not a fear of how people will react to her or how
society will judge her. No woman should
be made to feel ashamed of her body.'” - http://www.playboy.com/articles/new-generation-of-nudists
