A view on reading?
Okay, if this surprises you, you haven’t been paying much attention. Hibernationists excluded of course, they have a valid (I hope!) reason.
Yes. Naturists read books. And whenever possible this naturist likes to read in the nude. There’s nothing to it really. Just make yourself comfortable, get a good book, and you’re ready to go.
It’s that easy. Although finding a good book might throw you at times.
Why in the nude?
Well, I did say comfortable, didn’t I? As long as you’re comfortable, you’re in the right state to read. If you feel great and ready to read for a while when you’re uncomfortable, I’d love to hear from you how you do that. And certainly also why.
And what do naturists read?
Anything. Literally anything. Horror like you can expect from Anthony Crowley (@crowley_anthony on Twitter, he’s a naturist), poetry and introspective works like Robert Longpré writes (find out more about him on our new site NaturistFiction.org!) but there’s no limit to what naturists read. Romance? Historical fiction? Sure. Detectives? Fantasy and Science Fiction? Why not? And no, that doesn’t necessarily have to be naturist-related fiction. I can enjoy a good Agatha Christie story, or most anything by Ursula Leguin.
So who reads in the nude?
Probably more people than you’d guess if you’re not a naturist yourself. People in parks can do that, people at home, at a camping or anywhere that you can take a book to. In New York there’s an actual group of woman, 
united in ToplessPulp, that get together and read topless in parks all over New York. This because women can legally be topless in that city (even when many police people don’t seem to be aware of that).
When I go to our local nude beach I always have a book with me. Reading’s fun and you can do it in most places.
So there you have it. Reading in the nude isn’t something awkward or mad or new. It’s nude, nothing else.
Next time you get your hands on a good book, try it yourself. Experience the ease of reading without clothes pulling in places you don’t like pulling. You could be in for a nice surprise!
I read in the nude. If I want to relax and get comfortable with a good book, what’s more relaxing and comfortable than being nude?
Definitely the best way to read.Without the restrictions of clothes you can move easier and focus better.Great way to relax.
Husband and I read and work at our computers daily plus all the print matters that come to us. It’s done nude daily we wouldn’t think of doing it differently. (Ms. K)
I read in the nude, as well as doing so many other things, cooking, gardening, answering this post, etc, in the nude, that actually this should be what do I do clothed? Naturism seems to me so natural and normal that I sometimes forget I’m nude. Reading in the nude is the most natural thing to do, as being nude is so relaxing and liberating. Great post as usual, looking at another great aspect of nudism/naturism.
