The Best Nude Beaches in Florida
|
|---|
Stepping onto a nude beach in Florida isn't exactly like stepping onto
the set of a sultry music video with a cast of extremely attractive,
scantily-clad people. It's a little more like stepping onto the set of
Cocoon. But you know what? Who cares. The point of a nude beach is to
not care what anyone thinks of your body, and just be proud of what God
gave you without marring it with unsightly tan lines. So with year-round
sunshine, over 800 miles of coastline, and a...More... |
This Love Story Started At A Nudist Park
|
|---|
Ten years ago, Tracia Kraemer wanted to celebrate her 40th birthday by
trying something new. So she mustered her courage and visited Indian

naked, get dressed and drive off," she says. But the people she met were
so nice and welcoming, she says, that she decided to stay longer that
day...More... |
Is it illegal to be nude in your own home or sunbathe topless in the garden? This is what UK law says
|
|---|
Under the law its technically legal to be naked anywhere in the UK,

Naked Utopia: how England’s first nudists imagined the future
|
|---|
The naked body is as old as humanity. But nudism as a social form,
organised into clubs and societies, only came of age in England in the
1920s. Its practitioners were from a range of backgrounds and included
those with interests in "physical culture" (today we would refer to this
as body building and beauty contests). Many were interested in natural
health, including vegetarian and raw food diets, and new exercise
regimes from hiking to yoga. Nudism was particularly...More... |
Decades old nude run stirs new controversy
|

| The Bare Buns Fun Run started in 1984 at a convention. Since then it’s become an annual event. KHQ did a story about this annual running event a quarter-century ago.

|
|---|
Sia Rodney says she’s always been comfortable naked - so much so that,
when she asked her partner if he’d be okay with her becoming a naked
cleaner, he wasn’t surprised. The Derby 28-year-old said: "He would
definitely say I was a nudist but I would just say I feel very natural
naked. I have no problems with getting naked anywhere. "I was very much
