The day I got naked for Spencer Tunick
|
|---|
Standing naked in the centre of Hull in the small hours of the morning
is not something I ever expected to be doing. But that’s where I found
myself on Saturday, wearing nothing but my own skin, painted blue,
alongside 3,200 other like-minded people, shivering slightly in the dawn
breeze. As soon as I heard about Spencer Tunick’s vision for his latest
artwork, Sea of Hull, back in March, I registered to take part. I’m not

Going nude could be a new opportunity

Why Dating Naked Is Actually a Fantastic Idea
|
|---|
In an era of uber-connectivity and endless apps, it's getting
increasingly difficult to cut through the conveyor belt of dating BS in
order to discover who a person really is. It's the great irony of our
times: we can access one another instantly from across the globe; but
carefully contrived bios and curated assemblages of profile pics mean we
get little more than self-censored glimpses into a person’s
personality...More... |

|---|
| Nudists have lost a seven-year legal battle for access to a popular tourist resort beach on Spain's southwestern tip.

Women Sue City Over Topless Ban, Calling It Discriminatory

| A growing movement to remove laws against women going topless is headed to court in Colorado.

The Fort Collins City Council voted unanimously last year to keep a law that prohibits the display of female breasts, rejecting a growing movement to remove gender-specific indecency codes. The hometown of...More... |

On top of a hill in New York’s Central Park about a dozen women flit
about naked, as two more play a pagan folk tune on the violin and
acoustic guitar. The sunlight is slowly disappearing, and murmurs of the
oncoming cold are quieted as on the makeshift stage, a storm erupts.

Shakespeare’s final play The Tempest, performed in ...More... |

When I sign up for Naked In Motion’s combo pilates and yoga class - a
workout sans clothes - I have a lot of questions: When do you get naked?
What if you have to fart? Do people hit on each other? (Probably not if
you fart.) While I’ve made great strides from the body-conscious
teenager I used to be, I know that I’ve still got some work to do.
That’s why the class is so intriguing to me. For example, I’m not the
