“After a hot afternoon at the lake, we . . . returned through the forest to our hut, meeting still more groups of middle-aged forest hikers on the way.  We hadn't seen so many people all week, and now they were everywhere.  We had probably at least given them something to talk about, if they weren't too embarrassed to mention the subject of nudity to one another, that is.” – http://www.naktiv.net/newt/2013/index.html

“Hiking is a great way to stay fit and enjoy nature.  Whether you hike in the countryside, in the mountains or on the seaside, you come to appreciate the sceneries you cross at a slow pace.  If you find a great place, you can stop and enjoy the view.  But for us nudists, hiking naked adds the lack of clothes and the wellness that is attached to nudity to a great activity.” - https://nuetheureux.wordpress.com/2015/02/14/10-good-reasons-to-hike-naked/

“The protection of our children has to be paramount, but the line is being drawn in the wrong place.  By suppressing something and keeping it hidden it means that nobody learns the truth.  Teenagers grow up thinking that a normal body is the one in the adverts or young men see pornography and take it from that.  No one knows what’s normal anymore.” - Andrew Welch, http://instituteofmums.com/2016/06/14/experts-say-nudity-in-the-home-is-key-to-promoting-positive-body-image-in-children/?platform=hootsuite

“The Sub Rosa restaurant [in Oregon] serves food and drink with a side of music and clothing is optional.  The trend was initially started by the staff, who found themselves stripping down during a blistering hot day at an outdoor barbeque. It wasn't long before the diners joined in, and since then, it's been a clothing optional place to dine, drink and dance.” - Beth H.

“. . . if going naked among friends makes you think more about how you could look and feel healthier, then this too is a good thing – but it must be for yourself, and not to please others.” - http://www.henaturist.net/naturism-frequently-asked-questions/
