"I like it here. When I go to the other swimming pools they all look
at my legs. When I come here they look at me."-
12 year old girl with Cerebral Palsy concerning a naturist swim
The Top 15 Way Cool
Reasons To....
Spend a Day or a Weekend at a Nude Campground/Beach
Written by a teen Nude for teens!
From a pamphlet put out by the
Federation of Canadian Naturists.
1. It's fun! Of course, it's not for
everyone, but then, neither is Madonna nor the Red Hot Chili Peppers,
NBA basketball nor Batman. But once most young couples and
boyfriends/girlfriends try it, they come back. Why? Because it's fun.
You probably know people who have vacationed at nude beaches, who
skinny-dip in their backyard pool or who lounge around the house nude.
Why not?
2. It's healthy! Besides improved
self-esteem, the sun relieves stress, provides you with Vitamin D, a
tan with SPF 4 protection and helps clear acne. Naturists don't overdo
their time in the sun; they tan safely with a sunscreen.
3. It feels good! You know how gross
those jeans and bra straps feel on a hot sticky day? Or that wet
swimsuit when you come out of the water! No more! Trade it in for the
feeling of wind on your back and the sun on your body! Cool!
4. Self-esteem! You'll feel great
about yourself! Nudity helps you become more open and accept yourself
for whom you are, not whether you measure up to the supermodels you
see in ads. Welcome to a place that does not measure value as a human
being by body size! It makes you a stronger, more confident person.
5. Be yourself! You can express your
individuality! Everyone accepts you as you are, whether you have a
disability, are overweight, dyed your hair purple, or have a great
tattoo that your friends hate. People are attracted by your
personality! Everybody's different, and that is respected!
6. So much to do! Volleyball,
swimming, basketball, suntanning, golf, tennis, and all sorts of other
activities. There is just about anything you'd do at any campground or
beach. Only more.
7. You are in full control. You
decide when you arrive and leave. You decide what to do when you are
there! Just like if you went to the beach. But better! If it's your
first visit, you decide when or even if you want to disrobe! It's
normal to feel apprehensive on your first visit, but since you're in
control, you have nothing to lose by checking it out!
8. You can be you! It's so refreshing
to be someplace where nudity is not sex, unlike ads, movies or TV. You
don't have to look like an actor or actress from Baywatch! Nobody's
staring to see if you have a great body or if you're overweight or too
thin! Nobody is checking you out at all! It doesn't matter if your
belly button is an inny or an outy! It's OK!
9. No sex! Everyone in a Nude park
is having an orgy? NOT! That is Myth # 1! (People who think nudity is
about sex find it a lot more convenient to go to strip bars. Besides,
the naturist resort owners don't let those people in anyways.) Lewd
behavior is NOT allowed. Ever!
10. Safety. You're in a no-jerks
zone! People treat you the way you want to be treated. Problems are
taken care of right away, especially for women, so they don't feel
vulnerable. You won't run into problems like at public beaches where
people stare at bathing suits, giving their imaginations free reign.
11. Popularity and confidentiality!
You'll be part of the group! Already, thousands of Canadians are
nudists. But nudism is totally confidential, so nobody knows. Naturist
parks are in discreet, strictly private areas, well back from roads.
Those who go accept newcomers' anonymity. All naturists respect
confidentiality. The only people who know you enjoy nudism are those
you tell. And if you meet someone at a resort you know, don't worry
about it. They're there for the same reasons as you, to have fun.
12. Skinny-dipping! All those
University of British Columbia students can't be wrong! You've heard
about all those great topless and nude beaches elsewhere in the world,
Europe, the Caribbean, Florida. But North America's second-largest
nude beach is Vancouver's Wreck Beach, just at the base of a cliff on
the edge of the University of British Columbia. On a hot summer day
you'll find 12,000 nude people (UBC students wouldn't cut class, would
they?)! There are smaller nude beaches in every province in Canada.
Write us for more information.
13. It doesn't cost a lot! You don't
put out the big bucks for a fun time.
14. NO TAN LINES! BONUS!
15. If people were meant to go naked,
they would have been born that way!!!
Short Reading About Nude Culture
Although I have been sleeping nude since my early teens, my first experience with social nudity just took place in August 1998. I had been reading about nudism on the Internet and grew curious how being a nudist might actually feel. I was going to San Francisco on business and did a search for Bay Area nude beaches. Having a free day in the Bay Area, I chose to try Baker Beach, just South of the Golden Gate Bridge.
I parked in the crowded lot adjacent to the textile part of the beach. Then, wearing a t shirt and trunks, I walked onto the beach till I reached wet sand. I hiked North along the water’s edge toward the Golden Gate, still not sure where the nude portion of the beach would start. The view along Baker Beach is truly spectacular! I began to see some naked buns up ahead on the wide, sandy beach. Then, there I was among a whole bunch of nude sunbathers! There were also some fully clothed people on that section of beach, walking dogs, just enjoying the ocean, or gawking at the nudists. Also, there were several groups of Asian surf fishermen. They had their lines out in the surf, the poles held upright by metal supports driven into the sand. The fishermen seemed content to fish and talk among themselves, ignoring the walkers and the nudists altogether.
I made my way to a large outcropping of rocks that sort of mark the end of Baker Beach. There, I was faced with where to go and what to do next. Still in a t shirt and trunks, I walked up into the soft sand and began to look for an inconspicuous spot to sit and map out my plan of action, or inaction. There were people in groups of 2, 4, or more along the bank at the back edge of the sand. I picked a vacant area along the bank where there were both men and women. There were two couples a short distance from me, nearer the water. One couple was nude, the other man was nude and his companion was topless. Another group of obvious veteran nudists were setting up a volleyball net in front of the couples.
I removed my shirt and sat down on the towel, trying to gather up my courage. There were so many butterflies in my stomach, my scalp tingled and my throat went totally dry. Some other people, I noticed, also had on trunks so nobody seemed to notice my plight. I did not want to be branded a gawker, so I decided to count to three, then take off my trunks. 1,2,3, Nothing! I was frozen in place. 1,2,3, still frozen! I must have counted to 90 by threes. That ploy, obviously, was not going to work. I then decided that whoever said the first time is easier for men than women had grossly overgeneralized!
After sitting on my towel like a stone statue for about 20 minutes, I finally got up the courage to carefully ease my trunks off without getting up. Nobody cheered, nobody giggled, nobody cared! I was now sitting completely naked among a hundred or more other people. The sky did not fall! My first reaction was one of relief. My second reaction was, Hmmm, this does feel pretty good. Third reaction, I think I might like this. Fourth reaction after another 30 minutes, Wow, I know I like this!

The Naturist materials on this Nude Website are legal in every city, every state and every county inside the United States. They are protected by the First Amendment and are not subject to local obscenity laws or ordinances. The depiction of adults and children nude in the visual media has enjoyed constitutional protection in the United States since 1958, when the Supreme Court vacated a Court of Appeals finding that Sunshine & Health magazine could be obscene (Sunshine Book Co. v. Summerfield, Postmaster General, 355 U.S. 372). The right to depict adults and children in innocent nude poses has been upheld without a pause for 41 years. In case after case, the Supreme Court and lower courts have always upheld the constitutionality of "nudity without more," specifically referring to the Nude depiction as a fully constitutional form of expression. Our picture and video galleries are widely promoted in all of United States, Canada, Asia, Europe, South America, Canada, Australia and Africa amond most major countries. The only exception may be countries where nudity of any kind is banned, i.e. Iraq, Syria, and Iran. |
