“. . . a naturist is a nudist with more.  A naturist is a nudist who feels at one with nature, who is ecologically sensitive.  For me naturism involves a values system, while nudism is enjoying being nude with others.” – Morley Schloss, http://youngnaturistsamerica.com/nudist-naturist-defined/

“There’s only one designated naturist hotel in the UK, and that’s Clover Hotel and Spa in Birmingham.  Clothes are ‘optional’ here, but you’re likely to be in a minority if you decide to keep them on.” – Sean Meades, http://www.express.co.uk/travel/articles/664128/uk-best-naturist-spots-go-naked-holiday

“The first time I went nude it was a bit freaky and the hardest part is getting naked in the first place, but once you do it, it feels perfectly normal and natural.  People are more open and friendly when you are all naked, there is nothing to hide behind and they are more kind and relaxed – no one wants to fight a naked man.  All those decisions and judgements we make based on people’s clothing are gone.  When you’re naked, everyone is the same, so people are a lot more free and open.” – Jeff Adams, http://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/couple-has-nude-wedding-in-front-of-strangers_uk_5923f8e4e4b034684b0f6c62

“People cringe today when you mention the words ‘get naked.’  They are so afraid of it—and today’s children are so ingrained with this—that they must wear layer upon layer to deal with their body image.  However, when you are naked, you face your fears of body image and self-acceptance, experiencing some of the best moments of your life.” - Bobbi Klein, https://naturistmartin.wordpress.com/2017/02/04/10-reasons-why-you-should-get-naked-more-often/

“I was drawn in by the great equalizing aspect of nudism.  All other things are held equal, when nude.  A rich person appears no different than a poor person, or a really fashionable person appears no different to someone who has to make do with the clothing they have.  In the naturist environment, I feel like I’m their equal—I’m not better than them, nor they are better than me, we are just human.  By removing clothing, I feel a barrier between people is gone and I’m more able to meet and to talk to others without the feeling that I or they have something to hide.” - Laura Pannack
