How is it possible for the human body, which was created in the
picture of god, to be offensive to anybody? Satan would love to see
God's greatest creation be considered offensive.
What's So Great
About Clothes Anyway?
Why people wear clothes:
"Ok,", I bet you're thinking, "if it's so great, why isn't everyone
doing it?" To be honest, it beats me. If I was a sociologist, I would
say something like this:
Clothing is a sign of social status
and identification of onesself with a particular class or subculture.
In removing the importance of clothes, we remove our own public
identity.
However, if I were psychologist, I
would disagree, noting:
Clothes provide us with a tangible "armour"
against physical and emotional threats that we confront in our daily
lives. The removal of clothes makes us feel vulnerable.
Now if I were an artist, I would
probably point out that:
Once an idea has become accepted by
the majority, the minority feel that they are pressured to conform.
Being clothed is "safe", and to be unclothed is to fight against
established conventions. Once an idea takes sufficient hold, it
becomes almost impossible to break out of it without a coup. Only the
brave and self-assured feel that their own concepts may equal the
convention.
Unfortunately, I am none of these. I
am a project manager, and so I'll put my case in more familiar terms:
Senior executive support is crucial
to a project succeeding. In the case of nudism, most people can, if
they apply good research techniques, see clear benefits in disrobing
in appropriate places. However, they realise that without support on
the highest level, the project will not be uptaken, and there may be a
consequent general loss of confidence in the project manager.
Bet you wish I was a sociologist,
huh? I guess what my point comes down to is that people are afraid
they'll be found out, be branded as and be forced to live out their
lives as a dishwasher in a miner's canteen 300 miles south of the
Ecuadorian border.
So let me reassure you. As an
Australian, my first nudist experience was a search on Google for the
terms "nudist", "Australia" and "holiday". I got back several dozen
sites about different Australian clothing-optional campsites, resorts
and bed-and-breakfasts. It was the volume that shocked me - was
everyone except for me going around nude?
Short Reading About Nudist Culture
The most common problem women have toward a nudist environment is the fact that most think that only perfect 10's will be there and they will be embarrassed by other women. This is simply not the case. Only one in twenty (or less) has an exceptional physical appearance and naturists view all people as beautiful. Just as everyday people, some may have physically attractive bodies and may be proud of them, but most have average physiques and no overwhelming desire to flaunt themselves. When visiting a nudist environment, it soon becomes apparent that human beings are not rated on a scale on one to ten, based on body type, but rather on individual merit. They feel that personalities shine while exterior features have very little meaning.
A pamphlet which has helped many women better understand and adjust to nude life titled, A Woman's Perspective is available from the ASA, Incorporated, 1703 North Main Street, Kissimmee, Florida 34744-9988 USA; 407-933-2064. It details the average female nudist's attitudes about the practice and benefits of nude recreation for women, men and children. Yes, children. Experiences with children at nudist sites seems to suggest that the lifestyle also helps children to better cope with the pressures of growing up. Child naturists seem to be quite relaxed and have no problem with shedding garments. Also, incidents of abusive acts are much more rare than in "clothed" society. Children at these facilities are clean, considerate, and very well mannered.

The Naturist materials on this nudist Website are legal in every city, every state and every county inside the United States. They are protected by the First Amendment and are not subject to local obscenity laws or ordinances. The depiction of adults and children nude in the visual media has enjoyed constitutional protection in the United States since 1958, when the Supreme Court vacated a Court of Appeals finding that Sunshine & Health magazine could be obscene (Sunshine Book Co. v. Summerfield, Postmaster General, 355 U.S. 372). The right to depict adults and children in innocent nude poses has been upheld without a pause for 41 years. In case after case, the Supreme Court and lower courts have always upheld the constitutionality of "nudity without more," specifically referring to the nudist depiction as a fully constitutional form of expression. Our picture and video galleries are widely promoted in all of United States, Canada, Asia, Europe, South America, Canada, Australia and Africa amond most major countries. The only exception may be countries where nudity of any kind is banned, i.e. Iraq, Syria, and Iran. |
