“Be an ambassador of nudity and naturism by being
consistent in action and words. As in
all social aspects of life, we should be courteous, kind, and respectful, just
as they should be to us. Too many people
mistake the meaning of ‘being courteous to others’ as meaning that we should be
clothed. That is not always the
case. It is left to us to decide when it
is or isn’t. The key is consistency in
manners and attitude. We wouldn’t feel
awkward meeting someone at a clothed event so why should we when everyone is
nude? The only difference is our
perception of the situation. What do
other people see in us? Is it
consistent? When we are consistent in
who we are (i.e. ‘not being weird’) it puts others at ease despite what we
might or might not be wearing at the time.
We are telling them there is nothing to be alarmed over. This is normal. It’s made easier by talking about nudity
beforehand. Letting others know not only
helps bring nudism to light, but also removes the sense that something about it
is wrong. This might seem small and
insignificant, but it builds on itself.
It shows that we are no different than before. Nudity is an aspect of our life like a
religion or practice and should be respected and accepted. Be an ambassador of nudity.” - Made in the

“I have been met while nude by Florida Marine Patrol,
the US Coast Guard, Everglades National Park rangers, and a State Park
ranger. None of them told me to get or
stay dressed.” – Camping Bare, https://www.truenudists.com/groups/view.php?action=viewthread&id=132&idt=50852&vpage=1
“Anyone can be a naturist. Background, age, shape, race, creed and color
are irrelevant and it attracts people from all walks of life. At naturist places you will see babes in
arms, children and teenagers right up to the elderly. There are thousands of naturist families –
some into many generations - who find that they get on better with each other
as they can all enjoy something together and children brought up in naturism
say how they grew up without the usual hang-ups about their bodies.” - Edward, http://www.bn.org.uk/articles.php/_/information/about-naturism/what-is-naturism-r18
“Some people believe that their bodies are not
especially attractive and fear that others will judge them negatively for
having the wrong size or shape. One
visit to nudist club usually will put this fear to rest. Few people have perfect bodies and a key part
of nudist culture is body image acceptance, people accepting themselves and
others regardless of size, weight or body type.
Sure some may make private judgments about the appearance of others but
is it considered a gross violation of nudist etiquette to be open about
it. Those contemplating a first time
social nudist experience should feel confident that the majority of nudists are
accepting and non-judgmental when it comes to physical appearance.” – Larry Darter,
