“In terms of deep reverence, being naked allows us to feel more acutely the relationship with the breeze, the wind, the skies, the light and dark, the ground beneath us, the warmth of the sun . . . the touch of snowflakes or raindrops, the fullness of the natural world, and so encourages a richer, more genuinely felt interaction. . . Clothes allow us to hide truth, even from ourselves.” – Emma Rustall Orr, A Brief History of Nakedness, 2013, p. 47

“. . . we awoke to find the ground covered by a half inch of thick compacted snow.  Despite this it was still very warm outside.  Both Georgia and I were concerned as we were due to go skinny-dipping at the lake with our friends.  After I'd made some calls, we decided to set off and make what we could from the day. . . On arrival at the lake, we greeted our friends; in my case it was Tracy, Emma, Cha and her sister Kim, and in Georgia's case it was Charlie, Amy and Amy's father.  We checked out the lake, which was frozen solid!  The originally planned activity of skinny-dipping was out of the question.  This upset us, but determined, as we were to enjoy ourselves, we started a snowball fight. . . We rolled around in it and as a joke, kept sneaking up to our friends and putting snow into the back of sweaters.  Naturally after a period of time, this made all our clothes very wet. . . The three girls were running towards us across the snow, and all of them were naked. . . We'd all got our sweaters wet already because of the snow, so why not strip off?  We'll have nothing to worry about if we haven't got anything on.  Amy also said ‘It's not every day you will get a chance to play nude in snow is it?’ . . . For several minutes we fired snow bombs at each other. . . We all had a really good laugh.  Then Georgia got up and ran a short way towards the lake. . . she hurled herself forwards and skidded across the snow on her tummy.  We all copied her with joy.  (Unless you've actually done it yourself, it's hard to appreciate the novelty of having cold snow on your bare skin.) . . . they buried a laughing Georgia in the snow.  Inspired . . . Everyone was buried once each in the snow. . . We plan to go skinny dipping and instead spend a day playing naked in the snow.” – Mark, http://iyns.net/stories.html

“Haven’t you heard?  Naturism is no longer simply an activity for hippies, Playboy bunnies and serial exhibitionists. . . a growing number of people are casting aside their inhibitions and shedding their material layers.  Or, at the very least, thinking more about it. . . The new nudism – or neo-nudism – is both civilized and uncivilized, responsible and irresponsible.  And, if you avert your eyes, you could be missing out.” – Amy Molly, http://www.news.com.au/lifestyle/sunday-style/amy-molloy-strips-off-in-the-name-of-neonudism/news-story/88ca775e8ee77f6bc6890c939aad6e3f
