A child who has never been allowed to see his parents and
brothers and sisters naked sees nudity as something shocking.
--Dr. Helga Fleishhauer Hardt, SHOW ME (New York: St. Martin's Press,
1975)
Nudist Parks/Resorts
What lies beyond the dreaded gate?
(Entrance to White Tail Park) First of all, they are not "nudist
colonies". That is a rather antiquated term used by the media,
perpetuating a rather shallow image based on lack of information.
Instead, they are getaway destinations for people in the surrounding
communities, visitors to the area, and for the people who live there.
Most parks and resorts are a mix of campground, resort, mobile home
community, and private member club. Some are rustic with only property
and maybe a clubhouse, while others resemble fancy subdivisions with
condos, shops, restaurants, and activities galore. Most clubs have
residents who live there, if only seasonal or part-time. The majority
of the members live within a few hours drive and come on weekends.
Visitors come in two varieties, traveling nudists from other clubs or
organizations, and first timers, trying it out for the first time.
Check the AANR directory for a club
nearby or in an area you plan to visit. Lesson number one: CALL AHEAD!
Introduce yourself and ask if you'd be welcome to visit. If you're a
single male or traveling without your spouse, some clubs might inform
you of policies they may have that restrict the number of single males
or discourage visits without spouses. The single male issue relates to
the fact that nudist men outnumber women in many areas, and some clubs
seek to maintain a "gender balance" to avoid having some of the women
feel uncomfortable. The missing spouse issue relates to clubs trying
to be "family friendly", encouraging both spouses to work out their
differences and attend together, rather than be split apart by their
different interests. If you fit into either of these two categories,
and/or the manager seems cool or rejecting, call another club. Many of
the more progressive clubs, and most of the larger clubs, have dropped
such policies, especially against single males. Single women will have
little problem securing an invitation to visit. In either case, don't
give up. Remember, you're asking to be invited to a private club, not
a public park. Be polite and state your interest. You might not want
to bring the kids on the first visit. They'll pick up on your
nervousness, and will be much more comfortable when you are more
confident and relaxed about it.
Then comes the big day. Get good
instructions on how to find the place, since most parks are pretty
secluded. When you arrive, tell them your name and remind them that
you called earlier. Don't worry about being nervous. The manager has
probably dealt with hundreds to thousands of first timers, so just
follow his or her lead. The grounds fees for the day will vary between
$8 to $30+, depending on how fancy the club is. They'll tell you where
to park, where things are, and will probably give you a list of common
sense rules. If you're lucky and the manager has some time, you might
get a tour and/or get introduced to some of the regulars. After that,
you're usually on your own.
Short Reading About Nudist Culture
-Swimming Nude is Better
You don't have to fight the waves to keep your swimming suit on.
The water feels better against your bare skin than a wet swimming suit.
When you get out of the water, a swimming suit stays wet and feels bad.
When swimming nude, you won't get sand in your suit.
-Fewer Clothing and Laundry Hassles
Nudity reduces laundry costs.
Fewer washings reduce wear and fading, which in turn reduce how often you need to buy new clothes.
Eating nude considerably reduces the chances of spilled food staining and ruining your garments.
Deciding what to wear becomes a trivial decision instead of an often stressful decision.
Travelling for nude recreation cuts down on the amount of luggage that you need to carry.
Nude backpacking reduces the amount of gear you need to carry on your back.
-Sun Helps Clear Psoriasis
Psoriasis is a non-contagious skin disease that turns skin purple. Dermatologists have a treatment of sitting under a flourescent light to simulate the sun's ray. Why simulate? Go nude! The sun causes the body to produce dihydrxycholecalciferol. The more sun on the more skin, the better!
-Sleeping Nude is Better
By allowing air to travel freely over the entire body, the body is better able to distribute heat. This allows you to actually be warmer in the winter (under blankets of course) and cooler in the summer.
-Sunbathing Nude is Better
Sunbathing nude prevents those nasty tan lines and allows the entire body to benefit from the positive effects of the sun.
-Being nude can help prevent lyme disease.
Lyme disease is carried by the deer-tick. This little bug appears to bite when it lodges itself between clothing and skin. By being nude, they are much more easily brushed off before they can find a place to bite.
-Skinny dipping can help reduce rash from sea lice.
Sea lice, or jellyfish larvae stings cause a painful, itchy rash. The sea lice sting when they get trapped between your suit and skin. The obvious conclusion is to reduce your swimwear to reduce the chances of getting stung.
-Nudity may improve fertility
Being nude allows the male sex organs to better adapt to changing temperature. Tight, restrictive clothing inhibits the body's natural mechanism for doing so, which could cause reduced fertility.

The Naturist materials on this nudist 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 nudist 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. |
