“I ask folks who aren’t nudists if they wear clothes when it’s summer and they’re home by themselves.  Usually they answer, ‘yes,’ and I ask them why?  It can’t be modesty - they’re alone.  It can’t be warmth - it’s summer.  I believe it’s usually one of three things: 1) It’s just a habit 2) Their clothes are a security blanket or 3) They are uncomfortable with their own body. . . I suggest they 1) Break the habit - it saves laundry if nothing else!   2) Enjoy the freedom of nudity instead of clinging to something that provides artificial security, or 3) Learn to love their body just as it is.  They do after all take showers nude, so what’s the difference if they’re on the couch nude?” – http://centauri4-naturism.tumblr.com/post/157378335556/breaking-the-clothing-addiction

“Now, let’s be 100% clear: social nudity and sex are two different things.  Social nudity in the sense of being naked with friends and strangers is about spending time and having a good time without any sexual idea.  Sex is private, naturism is social . . .” - https://nuetheureux.com/2017/03/15/social-nudity-whats-in-it-for-me/

“Costumes create imagined self-images, keeping people from reality and egalitarian compassion and their own humanity.  People get addicted to clothing for their very acceptance of themselves, a very limiting strategy.  Sexual relationships are very often encased in fantasy, dirty totally replaces the intimacy, sharing, caring and the bonding involved.  Prudes do all of this and more.” – Jbee, http://freerangenaturism.com/forum/index.php?topic=655.405;topicseen

“Naturism is more than just being naked as much as possible.  It's also about loving and caring for this world we live in.” - https://twitter.com/ohionaturist/status/855799029204209665

“Mental programming at its finest.  That is the idea of having to be dressed all the time, even when swimming, which is ridiculous when you think about it.  And I’ve seen younger people (at the gym) shower in their underwear.  Seriously, what’s this world doing to people, messing up the minds of the younger generations?” – https://clothesfreelife.com/2017/02/25/convincing-people-to-try-a-nude-lifestyle-why-is-it-so-hard/
