This is more ranting than I wanted but I'm getting pretty fed up and looking for ideas on what we can do, if anything.
Rooster Rock and Collins are more textile than nude for a second year running. It's gotten to the point that I have to walk a half hour out to a secluded enough spot at Rooster just to feel comfortable enough to go topless. At Collins, which I rarely go to anymore, I often had to pick up and move on when a group of textiles moved nearby almost every half hour.
Yesterday, after frustratingly watching a group of three young women taking pictures of themselves and each other for an hour with nude people in the background of their pictures, I went to look at what instagram and facebook had for RR. It seems that there is this "teehee, look at us, we're at the nude beach.lol" thing going on (especially with the under 25 crowd). The posting to social media is this perpetuating that it's normal to wear clothes at the nude beach, it's okay to take pictures of others AND that it's okay to make fun of those who go nude.
They obviously aren't the only ones. I see a lot of people wearing clothes and just taking it all in. Sometimes, as I look like I'm napping, I'll watch them through my glasses as they point out others or stare at me.
I talked to a couple of friends last night (all women) and they've decided to stop going to either due to it being a "zoo for textiles". I get, I really do.
So what can we do? Social media campaign? LOL. I have no idea. At the beginning of the year, someone was placing "NO CLOTHES PAST THIS POINT" around RR and at first I thought it was tacky but now I'm 100% on the anti-textiles team. They've tipped the scales and we're losing our spots.
