For me being nude is not the reason to be nude. It&#8217;s to be happy, to feel free and unrestrained by the burden of clothes, straps and elastic bands.<\/p>\n<p>I can imagine how all that emphasis on <strong>nude<\/strong> is something that puts dressed people off. After all, it&#8217;s not their piece of cake, we&#8217;re not trying to convert them (unless I missed a memo about the <em>Church of Nudity<\/em>, or worshipping the <em>Nude Spaghetti Monster<\/em>).<\/p>\n<p>For the message to come across I think nudists and naturists should more focus on displaying and telling how <strong>happy<\/strong> being nude makes them. How relaxing it is, how free it feels. Those are values that mean something to dressed people, because let&#8217;s be honest: how much is there in this modern world that can make a person happy, relaxed and free these days?<\/p>\n<p>(This post appeared earlier on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.naktiv.net\/nook\/blog\/403\/emphasis\/\" target=\"_blank\">The Nook<\/a>.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sometimes I&#8217;m surprised about how people in the nudist\/naturist way of life emphasise how nude they are.
