Because he is right.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"317\" src=\"https:\/\/zjuzdme.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/all_coneynudebeach_2011_07_29_bk01_z.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4232\" srcset=\"https:\/\/zjuzdme.org\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/all_coneynudebeach_2011_07_29_bk01_z.jpg 500w, https:\/\/zjuzdme.org\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/all_coneynudebeach_2011_07_29_bk01_z-300x190.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 85vw, 500px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Traditionally nudists flock with birds that have the same lack of feathers, in this instance: clothes. That&#8217;s how they feel most at home and natural. The fewer restrictions for the body, the more nudist they are. Check.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But&#8230; statistically, as far as I know, the majority of people in this world are not nudists but textilists. They&#8217;re the human species that do not come close to nude beaches and such venues because, well, there&#8217;s a lack of textile there. Figures, right?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"386\" height=\"260\" src=\"https:\/\/zjuzdme.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Selection_0171.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4616\" srcset=\"https:\/\/zjuzdme.org\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Selection_0171.jpg 386w, https:\/\/zjuzdme.org\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Selection_0171-300x202.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 386px) 85vw, 386px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>So, take your average group of people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Like on the left.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All happy and&#8230; dressed. Poor souls. We all know that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What better setting than this to start educating?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>No, this doesn&#8217;t mean you should find a bunch of people in clothes and get naked near them. Unless you like that and want to risk being arrested, which will happen in most Earthly places.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s just grabbing the opportunity to talk about nudism or naturism. As soon as hobbies come up. When vacation comes up. When spending a leisurely evening comes up. And you don&#8217;t need to slap <em>nudist<\/em> in their face immediately either, unless you know it won&#8217;t be a problem. There are many ways to introduce a nude lifestyle to people. Expressions like &#8216;clothes are overrated in my house&#8217;, for instance. That leaves it to everyone to draw their own conclusions. If they&#8217;re curious, they will come and ask, even when it may take some time for them to gather some courage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I think it&#8217;s also important to keep it at one or two remarks at first. Don&#8217;t overdo it, or you risk ticking people off. Looking like a nudist addict can stigmatise you as a pervert in modern society.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;m curious what you think about this. How you approach things like this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Paul<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You don&#8217;t have to be naked to normalize it You may have heard of it.
