“The modern Western ideas about ‘naughty’ areas of the
nude body are pretty definitive: genitalia, buttocks and, in women, nipples and
breasts. It may surprise you to know
that these particular ideas aren't embedded in European cultural history. In fact, for certain periods in European
fashion, the naked female breast was all the rage as a completely non-shocking
addition to an outfit. Queen Elizabeth I
may have had an outfit that showed the entirety of her breasts . . . 18th
century French fashion was all about the sudden coquettish exposure of the
nipple; and we have records of fashionable court dresses for royal women of the
17th century that exposed the entire breast, but covered all the arms and legs
to prevent even a sliver of flesh being seen.” - JR Thorpe, https://www.bustle.com/articles/172288-7-strange-beliefs-about-nudity-in-western-history

“A NEW exercise class is starting in Southampton – but
it’s a class with a difference.
Nude-ercise is aimed at anyone who wants to get fit without the clutter
of clothes. . . ‘It’s really useful to be able to see exactly what the
instructor is doing – if you’re wearing a baggy t shirt you can’t always tell
what position your body should be in if you’re doing the plank for example.’
[Helen Smith]” – Rachel Adams, http://www.dailyecho.co.uk/news/15038671.Nude_exercise_class_launching_in_Southampton/
“Naturism = no pockets; nowhere to keep your hang
ups!” – NakedNaturalist, http://www.naturist-corner.net/community/index.php?topic=20511.0;topicseen
“To be nude all weekend, and to wake up and walk outside nude in the morning and feel the sun and the
air all over your naked body is pure bliss.
We now vacation at nudist resorts almost exclusively. . . The
relaxation at a nudist resort is beyond any other we have ever
experienced. The practice of social
nudism has been a lifesaver due to the stress relief we enjoy while nude. One day nude around other people enjoying
life in this wholesome environment is like a week in a luxurious clothed
resort. If you have not experienced
social nudism, then do not deny yourself this experience. Nudism is a genuine
retreat from the uptight and pretentious textile society we live in. When we see people of all ages playing
sports, having a meal together or just relaxing nude among friends, our only
regret is that we did not begin this awesome lifestyle sooner.” - Captain &
