It a nude life

“The main hangup in the world today is hypocrisy and insecurity. If people can’t face up to the fact of other people being naked, or whatever they want to do, then we’re never going to get anywhere. People have got to become aware that it’s none of their business and that being nude is not obscene. Being ourselves is what’s important. If everyone practised being themselves instead of pretending to be what they aren’t, there would be peace.”

— John Lennon (via arizonavichi)

We are naturists because …
… because our body is something entirely natural and we accept it just the way we got it from mother nature.
… because the pleasure of being nude liberates us from our acquired inhibitions.
… because the bare facts don’t hide anything, although this can lead to disappointment for those accustomed to having their fantasies inspired by sophisticated beach fashion. It’s interesting to see the variety of bodies, from young to old, and to realize that all have a beauty of their own, even though few match the ‘ideal’ suggested by advertisements. The main point is that one accepts oneself and others just the way we all are, and we believe that this is a strong point of naturists. The saying goes “clothes make the man”, but are we only someone if we do wear something ?
…because our birthday-suit is not only much more comfortable, it is also more beautiful and cheaper than any other garment. We do not need designer wear to improve our self-confidence, clothing just hides our own beauty!
… because it’s just wonderful to feel the sun, the water and the air unhindered on our skin, whilst enjoying the calm and beauty of nature. To us, this is an important part of the joy of life.
… because social nudity requires mutual respect and therefore produces a positive and tolerant conduct towards others.
… because at naturist-resorts, quite often very far reaching conversations develop, be it with long-time friends or complete strangers. Possibly one does subconsciously take off more than just ones clothes and one can therefore speak more openly. Those who have the self-confidence to show their bodies, also often have the honesty to open their inner selves. In any case, we have found that naturists generally think more open mindedly and reveal more of themselves than average people do. Could it be that naturists questioned the taboos and guidelines of todays society and deliberately chose their own path?
… because “au naturel” no sand sticks between our bum, the entire body quickly dries after bathing, no sunburned rims appear, nothing pinches and one sweats less because the entire body can breathe unhindered.
… because we are very often out in the fresh air in our birthday suits, we feel physically and mentally fit and well-balanced. In this way naturism inspires us to many activities, spiritually and bodily, which advance our creativity.
…because we wanted to experience our own freedom. We feel better towards others, because we are at one with ourselves. This freedom must be experienced, you cannot just “imagine” it.
… because the following thesis of the international naturist federation matches with our philosophy of life “Naturism is a lifestyle in harmony with nature, expressed through social nudity, and characterised by self-respect, respect for people with different opinions and for the environment.”
… because we also agree with the following thesis of the internat. naturist movement: “Comprehensive nudity is the best approach to effect a return to nature. Without any doubt, it is naturism’s most noticeable feature, though it’s not the only one. This comprehensive nudity is a great leveller, freeing people from the internal tensions generated by the taboos and the provocations of contemporary society, and pointing to a healthier and more humane way of life. “
…because on a warm day out in the nature or on the beach, it’s more fun just in the birthday-suit, it’s more comfortable, more natural and even more healthy!.
… and ESPECIALLY:
On the beach, it’s more fun just in the birthday-suit, it’s more comfortable, more natural and even more healthy!
… and Michelangelo said:
What spirit is so empty and blind, that it cannot recognize the fact that the foot is more noble than the shoe, and skin more beautiful than the garment with which it is clothed?
After reading all that, I’m really more than proud to be a naturist. People like us are really touch about it. And I just want to thank you for setting the record straight…. Just”B”Natural and be proud of it!!

{“It’s Just Skin”

We all have a naked body, why are there such massive taboos on the nude human form? I’m a slut or an attention whore for putting up a picture of my body without clothing. I’m not. That is when you start putting me in a box. I am not so containable. You can’t just pencil me into some stereotype, a category. Writing me off as a slut because I take pride in my body and am not afraid to show off my curves. I’m not perfect. I have cellulite and bumps, and scars and curves. But I am proud of every single flaw. We shouldn’t fear being free. Because after all, it is exactly that. Freeing.}
