Simply being naked is not about sex.
I know, everyone who visits my site regularly is entirely aware of that. Nudity and sex aren’t the same thing. Nudity is the absence of clothes because the naked person does not want to have clothes on. This concept seems to become more and more incomprehensible lately. Our modern society seems to slip back in time for some reason. Nakedness is bad. Drone thinking is promoted to keep people under control and going in the way that some big power points out.
Free thinking out of the clothes.
This is something that makes naturists dangerous, I presume. Naturists don’t fit in all the way with their odd desire to take all their clothes off and show their bodies to the world. A world that secretly loves to ogle and drool over naked bodies, but which is denied their additional compound as these naked bodies refuse to supply the porn and lewdness that are associated with them.
Naturists aren’t about that. We fight an uphill battle because many porn mongers pretend to be naturists and nudists while spreading their mess all over the Internet, giving us a bad name.
It’s a sad world that most clothes-loving people are so brainwashed into that. This makes it very difficult for true naturists to be seen and recognised, let alone respected and accepted. It’s in the human mind to easily think the worst of someone or something, and with the bad examples so very present everywhere the porn-induced minds will ‘naturally’ expect naturists to be on the same shit heap as the porn industry.
United we stand.
Yes, it’s a beaten to death statement but it’s real and true. The global naturist society has to make a stand, one stand, to the outside world. Double standards, hidden (lewd) agendas from one or the other will break our credibility, and that’s already a difficult item to get across.
Yes, it’s something that worries me and occasionally almost gives me a headache, like it does to the lady on the right. She clearly was a nudist long ago and foresaw the troubles I’m writing about here and now.
Why does it have to be so difficult to just be the way we want to be? I’ve said it before and will say it again: the world’s a mad house when people are more frightened of a naked person than of someone who’s armed to the teeth. Violence, murder, war, all kinds of misery are laughed at when they show on television, but the sky falls down when there’s a female nipple on the screen for a second. And a completely naked person? Nearly incredible.
I wonder how certain television shows get away with not being considered porn. Perhaps because they’re based on artistic content?
You tell me if you have the answer…
Its the most wonderful free thing there is
Sex and nudity are “sold” in the movies and on TV because they draw viewers, and viewers bring MONEY. Those who believe that nudist resorts are full of “super-models” and “Chippendales” because they are the only people “worth looking at” couldn’t be more wrong. Nudist resorts are populated with ordinary people, “every-man” and “every-woman”, people who are no different than anyone else, except that we like to live clothes-free.
Blessings!

I don’t have any answers either but actions speak louder than words. Be proud be bare and be nice. Spread the word invite your friends and family members to join us but be nice. Persuade by word and example and let everyone know just how great it feels and the health benefits of going nude.

bonjour Paul
j’aurai peut-être une réponse puisque je suis naturiste et libertine, je suis entièrement d’accord avec toi sur se tu as mis comme sujet le naturisme n’est pas un mode de vie libertin ou pornographique il se pratique en famille, en couple, ou seul, se mode de vie dois être respecter comme on respecte les textiles ou autres personnes qui ont un mode de vie différent.
ensuite le libertinage n’a rien a voir avec le naturisme c’est pas parce que l’on est nu sur une plage ou autre endroit de la nature que l’on est obligatoirement des pervers y a des endroits pour cela des clubs des campings ou autres gîtes rural qui peuvent réunir se monde je le connais bien aussi ! mais parfois il existe des plages comme chez nous en France où se réunissent des libertins parfois des plages privées ou publiques du moment qu’ils sont discret cela peut a la limite passer mais franchement ça ne se passe pas comme ça non plus malheureusement beaucoup de couple copulent a même le bord de l’eau devant des personnes qui n’ont rien demander je trouve ça scandaleux !
et aussi les médias qui donne une autre image du naturisme les journalistes font souvent l’amalgame entre naturiste et sexe ils le font exprès d’ailleurs ! donc c’est vrai qu’avec tout ça les gens l’opinion publique font parfois des erreurs parce qu’ils ne prennent pas le temps de découvrir des gens différents dans leur mode de vie classique !
As long as nudists/naturists use the same promotional tactics that the pron industry does it will be associated with sex.
Amen .. and I totally agree
Earld, the problem is also that some nudists and naturists are tricked, manipulated or unfortunately, like in the case of some places across the world, they monitise photos and videos from their resorts knowing fully that the vast majority of viewers of said content are not naturists themselves but are in it for their own created sexual thrill. It is a double-edged knife sort of, materials that could show to the wider world that naturism is NATURAL end up being usurped…a chicken and egg kind of problem sadly.
