Are we just the more articulate version of the people who told us naturism was wrong?

We've written a lot about why sexuality doesn't belong in naturist spaces.

But we realized we'd never honestly asked ourselves whether our position comes from something real or just a preference we've been calling a principle.

Part 2 of our series goes somewhere we haven't gone before. Our own history. What we've lived. Why naturism felt different from everything we'd left behind. And whether that makes us right or just stubborn.

We've been saying "nonsexual nudity" for decades like it's a perfectly normal thing to say.

Nobody says "nonsexual clothing." The phrase only exists because nudity got annexed by sexuality at some point and we've been using language that accepts that annexation ever since.

OurnNew article is on why nudity and sex are genuinely different things, why destigmatizing sex isn't the answer to naturism's cultural problem, and what happened when we told the French Federation of Naturism's critics that if nudity is irrelevant to what they're planning, any beach works.
