“Naked Hiking Day June 21 - You May Encounter Bares in the Woods - Each year, the unofficial Naked Hiking Day is observed on June 21, the day of the summer solstice.  It may be celebrated by naked hikers singly or in groups in the woods and mountains on that date.  It falls around the date of Father's Day . . .” – Wendy Bumgardner, https://www.verywellfit.com/caution-naked-hiking-day-june-21-3436274?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_content=button-article2&utm_source=Subscribers&utm_campaign=658cf491c4-June-2018&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_56fcfa5d4f-658cf491c4-48273425&mc_cid=658cf491c4&mc_eid=d48c508625

“As naturists, our emphasis can’t just be on the act of taking our clothes off for sunbathing, swimming or other social naturist activity.  Our naturism needs to be part of a bigger thing; a respect for our environment amongst them. . . In that way we change our world, the naturist world. . . It’s incumbent on naturists . . . to show that we, as a community, exist to a higher standard than others.” – James, BN-NI, https://ninaturist.wordpress.com/2015/08/28/what-should-naturism-mean-to-us/

“Anyone who believes that society cannot function should people expose their genitals has only to look at the Bororo, Pataxo, and Xrente tribes of the Amazon, where complete nudity is customary.  Going natural was practiced in Ancient Sparta, among Celtic tribes, and remains a common form of recreation for many Americans. . . families and friends sharing ‘naked time’ together is simply beautiful.” – Nick Alimonos, http://writersdisease.net/2013/10/21/why-the-nudity-taboo-is-unethical-and-must-go/

“Sleeping naked is scientifically good for you, so why would you ever bother with PJs? If you’re going to be forced to wear clothes all day long, you better believe that sleepy time is your one chance to express your right to nakedness.” – Gigi Engle, http://elitedaily.com/life/nudist-world-full-of-clothes/1172391/

“Ancient texts from many cultures refer to the poor and downtrodden as naked, and in a society with that attitude, a person who could afford clothes would certainly wear them to show that they were not poor and downtrodden.  It is easy to see how clothing quickly became more than a utilitarian body covering, and began to assume other social meanings.” – Jordan Blum, http://youngnaturistsamerica.com/naturism-nudism-throughout-history/
