I’m a nudist because of them and I think it’s given me so many great benefits. Of course it was optional, but definitely encouraged. They could’ve acted all uptight about the different genders but they didn’t.

As 18 year old woman, there’s a lot of problems my demographic can face. (Not to say men don’t as well!) We’re told to cover up to not look trashy, but not too much that we look like a prude. Body insecurities, I know I have a “good” body but I’ve seen friends with similar ones and still be insecure and come up with all the tiny imperfections they can spot.

Being a nudist has gotten rid of that, where I can be completely comfortable in just my own skin and being nude! That’s why I’m so thankful for my father and grandfather.

Not to mention all the tiny things that are stupid, like having to dodge everyone after a shower or worry about them walking in on you. I can squash those things and walk around nude with no problem or fears. :)
