“. . . what is that difference between a ‘naked person’ and a naturist?  Plenty of people have a casual attitude to nudity at home or elsewhere without feeling the need to tag themselves as naturists. . . Also, naturism as a way of life has very few rules . . . There is no one interpretation of naturism which is right above all others. . . For me, a naturist is someone who Enjoys being naked, feels some benefit to being naked (such as preferring it for comfort, or feeling that it is healthy and positive), doesn’t think people should feel a sense of shame about being naked, or about seeing other people naked, recognizes that nudity and sex are not the same thing and that it is possible for men and women to be naked together in purely platonic, casual, social situations.  To me, you don’t have to go to nude beaches or naturist resorts to be able to call yourself a naturist (these are just fun things you can do if you are a naturist). . . Being a naturist isn’t about what you do naked.  It’s about how you think and feel about being naked.  That’s what separates a naturist from a ‘naked person’” - https://getnakedgetawesome.wordpress.com/2013/08/10/what-makes-a-naturist/

“You know you're living your life the right way when you find yourself naked on a beach with your buddy by your side.” - https://twitter.com/ohionaturist/status/767688417853448192

“Will Americans ever ‘get out’ of the Nudist Colony? - Americans have a bizarre perspective regarding nudity.  OK on cable TV.  Expected in the movies.  And a trip to the New Jersey shore is sure to be more revealing in a variety of ways than you could ever hope for.  Maybe nipples and penises are thinly veiled, but beyond that – who knows!?  And we live in an era of paranoia in a society that is fixated on being extremely vigilant about every possible danger known to man. . . it seems we have lost our common sense in the midst of it all.” - https://meanderingnaturist.wordpress.com/2016/08/12/will-americans-ever-get-out-of-the-nudist-colony/

“I am grateful for my neighbors who pretty much live and let live.  I'm nude on my property all the time without complaint.  I am grateful I am not ashamed of who I am.  When I am clothes free, stress leaves every pore of my body.” – George Shanley Koeber, https://www.facebook.com/groups/PromotingNudism/
