Married naturist discovering the benefits of the nudist lifestyle. Snowboarder, flyfisher, geology, mountain biker & hiker. Radical centrist, anti-communist.
(Pt. 1) I want to take a moment a share a few thoughts describing my take, and my philosophy on
#naturism
. This will take a few tweets so I encourage you to
#getnaked
and grab a coffee.

Compared to which generations? This has always confused me… all previous generations over the course of history have had it harder than right now.
Ok so here we go! First
#naturist
tweet! Nervous. Unsure.
Unimpressed with the drama and fake pr0n accounts on Tumblr - I am reconnecting with twitter hoping for a more authentic experience.
Male, married & hetero.
Twitter asks “what’s happening” when you’re about to tweet. This is what’s happening! This Saturday is

What’s it mean? Try stripping down outside for an afternoon and spend some time outside with your plants 🌱 🍑 🌞
(3) My original experience to
#naturism
as well as
#socialnudity
was through the
#sauna
- and I was well into my 20's when that happened (you could say I was a late bloomer). These experiences were novel, exciting, liberating, but also rare. It would be 15 more years before..
Might as well get this out there before things get out of hand...
Anyone following or posting porn, including those purporting to be nudist/naturist, will be reported and then blocked.
Spent a few hours at Mountain Air Ranch yesterday. Was a beautiful day for FreeHiking around the Colorado foothills. The partly sunny skies and cool breeze made for a sublime day of naturist time on the trails. Can’t wait to go back!

I’m asking those who love the outdoors to post a picture. A picture that YOU took. Just a picture. No description. The goal is to regain peace harmony without negativity. Please copy the text, put a picture on YOUR page, and let's look at these beautiful pictures. Here's mine.
Say what you will about winter, but there is something special to this time of year. Chalk it up to the pastel colors or the snow hushed environment, it is some thing to cherish.
This atmospheric phenomenon is called Alpenglow in North America. Curious of the UK ever sees this
Well written piece on the background for World Naked Gardening Day, how to dive in, and which cities in the US are ideal for trying it out this weekend.

I think it’s worth being real about what “normalizing naturism” truly amounts too. It will likely never be mainstream, so what we are really trying to do is reduce social stigma for the unclothed body to a tolerable level. It won’t happen by itself & It will take constant dialog.
(12) Being
#naked
, whether socially or privately, and especially
#outdoors
opens up the sense of touch to your whole body. Many
#naturists
describe the simple sensation of a breeze passing by as noticeable, novel and electrifying.
#Skinnydipping
becomes a memorable experience.

Underrated benefit: the boost, upgrade, or improvement to one’s self confidence.
I rank it so highly here because I think it’s unlikely for the uninitiated to associate the two together.
It’s like that sense of ease that comes with knowing “all is well with me”

Thoughtful and worthwhile question! My take:
- nude photo: widest interpretation. Could be sexual or not, but a staged, modeled photo.
- naturist photo: casual, non-sexual and just “you being you,” only without clothes.
- porn photo: designed to illicit a sexual response
(16)...to teach the intrinsic value of being
#naked
from time to time. As
#naturists
we have the power to bring the shame of nudity out from the darkened closets of human consciousness and into the acceptance of daylight. By working to

Last time I was in OZ was a while back, but found some nice easy surfing in a nice little coastal town of Port Macquarie. Some nice Headland Hikes as well. Cannas say about naturist activities
Thinking about the New Year: putting this out there into the universe as a couple of intentions/goals… 1. Put myself out there a bit and lead a naturist scotch tasting, 2. Lead a group naturist naturalist hike for geology of the Colorado Rocky Mountains.

(13) To bring this around and wrap it up: It is now my approach to understanding naturism as being directly synonymous with being a foodie or music enthusiast. To be a
#naturist
is to be a curator of touch experiences. To be a naturist is to sense the world... not through sound,
. "Being in the nude reduces shame," she added. "You can work on self-acceptance, and that can be very healing." No better rationale than that for
#NormalisingNaturism
(15)...by feeling the crisp air of autumn on one's cheeks, and by the unique understanding that not every winter's chill is always so chilly. As
#naturists
we are ambassadors to the sensation of touch. As naturists, we are uniquely qualified to describe the value...
(6) By now, I'm a frequent
#nudist
at home. My wife has become far more accustomed to it, sleeps naked herself, and our home sauna now encourages frequent nudity for both of us. But, I've often wondered... WHY? Why is personal and social nudity so controversial? WHY...
(9) Because of our culture's increasing appreciation of better taste,
#Foodie
culture has become normalized. Foodies reinforce and support an appreciation of good taste. Then I realized all the normal human senses have enthusiast groups... except one. Hear me out...
@_Hector_Mtz
I see a few LGBTQ+ mentions but respectfully disagree. The increasing controversy surrounding those communities would bring a complicated relationship. I think there are more thoroughly aligned groups out there that would provide better opportunities for advancing naturism.
(14) ... but through the skin's sensation of touch.
#Nudists
collect feeling experiences by laying naked in the sun, by walking naked in a summer rain, by hiking through a cool forest, by sensing the full extent of a cool breeze over the entirety of one's uncloaked body...
