| I agree there is no need to have a badge for community leader just look around with in a short time you will know who they are. My hypotheses is that it's just measurement of use at a given time us if a new user stays on like for some extreme abount of time they get a badge. Not the way to evaluate community leader status. | |

| Under my profile I went into edit bages and found this description for community leader A Community Leader is someone who spends a lot of time on NudistClubhouse.com. The badge will appear and disappear from your profile depending on your usage of the website. The more often you log on and contribute, the higher the odds that you will have this badge.

| I was talking to a individual that I had no knowledge as to what they thought of nudism. The response was positive. I told him about a local club he in turn told a woman. She had wanted to go to a nudist venue. She enjoyed it so much that she has become a member of the club. One converted to nudism how many more can we convince? | |
| Absolute Naturists |
|
| Instead of us saying we need to know the thoughts of the younger nudist. I think that is were VitaNuda comes in. Are they getting caught up in the expressions? We call the places we go to for nude recreation Resorts. I know in my mind that congers up a place that is exclusive. Several years ago I had seen a place that called itself a retreat that makes sense as it is a place to relax de stress. Then there is the non landed club is there a need for more of these. I still want to stress we need to ask the young people. | |

|
| I would add to the last comment. There is a quote from John Paul II in which he said "It is not being nude that is the sin it is what you do when you are nude". the reason people are afraid to be nude based on self concepts or misunderstandings. | |
| Absolute Naturists |
|
| It would almost be a better place is being nude was regarded as a right. It will be even better place when everyone went nude except when weather required something to put on to prevent frost bite. As I have stated before I where a kilt for comfort and it keeps me legal, but it nudity were legal I wouldn’t hear questions like. What do you have on underneath? Or someone thinking I should be forced to where pants. That will be the day. | |

| I've had a dream home plan that would allow me to have nude time around the house. Ever Sense 6th grade I have dreamed of a house with a court in the middle. I would have a pool and hot tub in the court. Then I wouldn't have to wary what the neighbors thought. if I were to build in an idea location the court could be open to the sky. Otherwise, I would have plenty of skylights. | |
| Absolute Naturists |
|
| I think anything that is done to "get me noticed" is not part of nudism. That is just my opinion. You may not agree with me but I will not follow a certain doctrine it's only my opinion. | |
| Absolute Naturists |
|
| If participating in a fantasy fest event causes a person to evaluate their position on being nude then it is good. However, I think these are more about “look at me”. I say that when you have people doing things like body painting or tattoos you are not doing it for the pure enjoyment of enjoying participation in nude lifestyle. If someone really wants to try nudism they would do best to attend the special events that many places have during the first week in July. | |

| pro•ac•tive, adjective Serving to prepare for, intervene in, or control an expected occurrence or situation, especially a negative or difficult one; anticipatory: proactive measures against crime. In my earlier comment I mentioned the example of several men letting the individuals with the camera know it is not appropriate for them to take pictures of people who do not want to be photographed. In the case of Sandy Hook there is a local group called Friends of Gunnison and anything that needs to be done should be done through that group. With the situations were we lost nudist beaches was a result of finding out too late that a nudist beach has been taken away from us. Above all we still need to work with organizations such as AANR etc. | |
| Absolute Naturists |
|
| With reading the posts regarding Fire Island and how we are chasing the bus instead of driving the bus. I was thinking that what is the situation with Sandy Hook. Hurricane Sandy did a lot of damage to the beaches in that area. As described by a local radio personality when Sandy came up the east coast it struck land at Sandy Hook (what a coincidence). I do know that one the first time I was there I overheard couple of guys talking about the people looked like there who were nude. On another occasion some people around me observed someone taking pictures and several men approached them and let them know that taking pictures was not appreciated. Really would like to hear from someone closer to the Sandy Hook to hear what is going on there. Being aware will prevent another beach from being closed. | |

| I looked up “free-spirited” at urban dictionary found this meaning. Someone who isn't weighed down by the troubles of everyday life, is always themselves regardless of the situation and lives life to the full. Not restricted by other people's opinions. Note: free-spirited should be used in a positive context. In terms of our participating in the nude life style the term free spirit applies but on the other hand we are as diversified as the general public. | |

| Ranger’s instructions come from the Dept. of the Interior in Washington DC. | |
| Absolute Naturists |
|
| The Chief Ranger is not required to enforce state laws nor can the state require the Chief Ranger to enforce state law. In the very early days of the United States a state required that the federal bank enforce state regulations. The Supream Court ruled that states cannot require federal departments located within their state to enforce the state law. I think the Chief Ranger has a issue with nudity and needs to be straighten out by the next in command. | |
| Absolute Naturists |
|
| So the Chief Ranger for Fire Island says she is going to enforce NYS anti nudity laws that were established in 1986. However, nothing is said about allowing woman to be topless as a result of a decision by the highest court in NYS in the 1990's. We need to make sure the ranger knows this before she starts issuing finds to topless woman at the beach. | |

| Olivia, I wish that your initial post with the update about other club members could appear in the AANR Bulitan in the letters to the Editor. It also would be good to have it in a TNS publication as well. ---------- Thank You Wayne, I recently was approached by a forward thinking group to have one of my journal entries here published. It was the SCNA and quite an experience for me. I have been thinking about trying it again and this is a great sounding board for me here to get both positive and negative reactions. I wish I knew if there are other woman that agree. Lacey has given some good feedback. I will wait and see what some others think. Do you think it was a bit over the top and would need to be toned down or not? | |

| I am aware of NY state but the question before my comment isn't it leagle for woman to be topless anywhere men are. That is what I was responding to. | |
| Absolute Naturists |
|
| Stricker8, the short answer is NO. For if it were true there would be no need for this string. | |
| Absolute Naturists |
|
| Normally management at nudist resorts say they want to maintain a close to balances gender population. I see where gay men will still have the same problems as single men. On the other hand gay females will not have any problem in admission. | |
| Absolute Naturists |
|
| People create their own barriers. They will give all sort of excuses why they can’t do it no matter if it is clothing optional or nude. So what we should be telling others is hay Micky or Margret (whatever there name is) Try it you’ll like it. | |
| Absolute Naturists |
|
| When I convinced myself that I wanted to go somewhere that I could go nude. I hadn’t even thought of well I’ll hand out with people who may be nude. If I am going to do something I am not going half way. I was not even aware about clothing optional. When I have the opportunity to discuss naturalism or where I am going I talk about going somewhere be nude and the special feeling of total body sensation. I talk about the total experience. So getting back to the original post you can see I approach nudism vs clothing optional lifestyle from a absolute nudist point of view. | |

| The whole idea of personal assistance is not just for older people who need help in their ADLs (activities of daily living) but this also applies to people with physical disabilities. It was the disability community that came up with the idea of personal assistance then the elderly saw that this applied to them. I really don’t see Brian as a service provider rather he is a promoter of the nudist lifestyle. It is very expensive to setup a website for this purpose. How would it be funded? I see I have miss understood what you were requesting to get started. I am sure after much dialog we can come up with a plan of action. However if a group were setup for this it would be different in the fact posts would not last forever. They would be deleted upon the original poster indicated they had no need for the post to continue on the site. | |

| We are seeing so much self-centered behavior in our society today. I think this could be a subject for a psychology or sociology book. In one way or another it is learned behavior. It’s in our politics a culture that says I’m right and you are wrong. Is this part of bulling?. | |

| I know from my experience that it would take 45 days for processing. So now I renew early so there is plenty of time for processing. I don't think they have a big staff there, so that could be the reason it take so long. If you signed up on line you should have seen a verification. At that point you should have printed it out especially if you were planning to visit any of the resorts/camps. | |

| I have been wearing a kilt for 3 years now. Very seldum do I wear slacks except when the temperture gets below freezing. I had started wearing them to the local club then started wearing them to most places. One day I went to a General Practice Doctor for ruteen visit and she tells me that kilts are healther for my body. About year and a half ago I started wearing them to church. I just happens that the Presbyterian Church started in Scotland. I too have had people complement me on them as well as those questioning my sexual orintation. It feels so good and confortable. | |

| I have tried several of the sites aimed at single and nudist individuals. First for my area the possibilities are limited. Being in my mid sixties I was looking at profiles from woman with in a 200 mile area. That totaled 26 women. I only heard from one and that individual we do communicate often. I do hope that at some time in the future we get to meet as we have so much life experiences in common. There are also “woman” on the site who present themselves as interested in me. First they were in the 25 to 35 age bracket. I did communicate with them to get a sense as to why they were interested in me. They first assure me that they preferred older men. Then after several weeks they had these scams where they needed money for some problem they were having. Another thing I noticed at the beginning the communications were crudely typed then after time they became well polished as if they had been written by different individuals. It would be nice to meet someone who shares my feelings. I would like to develop a healthy relationship. | |

| We do have farmer’s markets here and that is fine when produce is in season. The farmer’s market facilities are privately owned and they rent stands to farmers. Some of the so called experts are suggesting food items that are not available in grocery stores and probably available at specialty shops in larger cities. I believe the reason it takes two incomes now a day is business realizes there is two incomes so they raised the prices. No way is anyone going to get ahead and this has been going on all my working years. | |

| BareWings go to the AANR website in California there are 4 places to choose from. Your acceptance would be enhanced if you are a AANR member and with the change in bylaws you will get a reduced rate. I don’t know when that will start. The resorts give you a discount so in just a few visits it pays for itself. A nudist beach is always a good place for your first experience. However, there has been a little hassle in CA From what I see there doesn’t seem to be any Non landed clubs. To other members of this group if you know more about this please post or contact me so I can pass the word along. | |

| This topic can go on for ever. My point is that both words can have positive and negative. One expression I cam across was the winds in winder the trees are naked to the wind. I doubt that the trees have shame. On the other hand there are strippers and what they do is referred to as nude dancing. So it really doesn’t matter what word you use someone is going to interpret the way they choose. I did not mean that SB you needed to relax. Isn’t relaxing (de stressing) what we do as naturalist? | |
| Absolute Naturists |
|
| I was just on dictionary.com (9/14/12) and checked the meaning of both words. The end result is no real difference is given. We really don’t need to debate this issue. Both words have positive and negative images. The publisher of a paper my late wife worked for said English is a changing language and we need to accept those changes. So lets just relax and get undressed and enjoy the hot tub, swimming pool, the beach etc. | |

| It seems to me that a profile picture should be just that a picture that lets us see your smile. Our photos should reflect the nude modeling. We are at a protected website so showing off our comfortableness with our nude bodies. The crotch photos in my opinion belong in the photo album section. Finally our posture in photos should be similar to the way we would look at a nudist venue. | |

| I received the following reply from Susan Weaver Wayne, I appreciate your contacting me with your thoughts about AANR merchandise. Your information is only partially correct. I am pushing for AANR to carry a line of merchandise through a drop ship merchandise source, but not carry inventory in the office. AANR has over $30,000 worth of merchandise that is not moving, despite repeated sales, special offers, free shipping etc. In today's world, merchandising is a science and needs to be managed by professionals who can assess need, sale point price, shipping costs, inventory costs, and other factors. AANR does not have the staff for this function, so it only makes sense for us to utilize a professional merchandise provider. I very much want us to have merchandise that members like you and I can wear to the store, the library, and the PTA meetings. I find that when I wear my AANR t-shirts it serves as an ice-breaker in conversation with people and I have the opportunity to encourage people to visit the AANR website and AANR clubs, and hopefully join AANR. But merchandise must be either a revenue maker or, at the least, revenue neutral, if every penny of your membership dues is to be used for AANR's primary missions of advocacy and education. I have obtained the names of several companies that provide drop ship merchandise to associations such as AANR, and Executive Director Jim Smock is investigating establishment of a business relationship with one of these companies so that we can continue to offer a line of AANR merchandise. I feel certain this will result in a more successful merchandise program. I hope that you will pass this information to the person or persons who told you, incorrectly, that I wish to do away with AANR merchandise. Thank you for your thoughts and your membership. You make it possible for AANR to work on your behalf to strengthen and increase public acceptance of nude recreation in the Americas. Susan Weaver | |
| AANR Updates |
|
| I just sent the following message to the AANR president. Attention, President, Susan Weaver I learned today that you had bushed for elimination of the AANR merchandise store. To me it does not make sense. We members purchased items from the store showing you pride in being AANR members. It was one of those programs where members showed there support and it advertised AANR to others. The only thing I am asking is for you to reverse your decision ASAP. | |
| AANR Updates |
|
| Don't the trustees of AANR realize the there merchandise promotes AANR. I think, I will be using the nudistclubhouse.com merchandise the next time I need a towel or cap. or I could leave AANR and get membership in TNS get merchandise from them. | |
| AANR Updates |
|
| Maybe with the changes coming encouraging young people to join AANR we can see change. We just have to encourage them to vote so dedicated people like Brian can stear AANR in the right direction. Don't give up Brian. | |

| If as a man you are being stimulated at the site of a nude woman who is not your wife or engaged girl friend maybe you should check your values. On the other hand I was told by a married man that a woman who was married to someone else had pressed her pubic area against him while dancing to get him turned on. I can tell you that he was offended by her behavior. Furthermore if a single guy had done the same he would have been escorted off the premises. | |

| A short comment about calling facilities resorts. Last year I saw where a facility started referring to itself as a retreat. Maybe other so called resorts should do likewise. Now, getting back on topic I have read many posts about attracting younger people. It seems to me having a restriction on children to come along discurrages the adults from coming. What are the parents suppose to do with the children so they can come. Parents do have the responsibility to monitor there children. I have also read that people at “resorts” look out for each other including the taking of pictures. What I think is going on is the dominate group of older people saying we don’t want the children around. So we have this generational devide. Do you really want to get younger people coming or are you pretending you do. I have found children of nudist tend to be the most polite children. Reach into your self and decide what the goal of naturalist retreates. | |

| The camp I go to is PSHS has a weight room on the first floor of the hotel. I could be wrong but I don’t think anybody uses the equipment. When I go there I arrive by taxi as I do not drive then go to the office to register for the day. Then I walk down a hill then around the oval until I get to the recreation center/indoor pool. One day on arrival I saw one of the residents as I was entering the office. A few minutes later she saw me as I arrived at the above facilities and said “you’re the only person who uses the camp as the name implies”. The full name of the camp is Penn Sylvain Health Society. Either the people drive there gulf carts or cars to get around. For the most part I decline the offer for a ride. If our resort/camps are recreation facilities members/visitors should be looking to exercises in a wide variety of ways. | |

| PerfectTan I think you said it right on. I know my fear of being nude was based on what I was told by my family and peers. That was until I had to overcome the gymphobia associated with being nude. My fear included being nude for physical exams. I started thinking there was a time that males went to the YMCA learned to swim nude. I also started to do reading about nude recreation and prepared to learn the troth about body issues. Once learned I had to go to a beach with the positive attitude that I was going to be nude and the rest was history. | |

| Hollywood doesn’t try to take away our right to enjoying nude recreation. Yes, there concept of nudism is off base. It’s not all religion that opposes nude recreation it’s just those that would not consider naturalism and want to prevent us from our freedom to be nude. | |

| It's the extreame nudist groups those who turn isolated bible verses into sick logic. for example "God made clothes for Adam and Eve so we must be clothed at all time". If that was the case does that mean we should shower with clothes on I don't think so. | |

| I really don’t think nudist have body issues. They may have had body issues before becoming a nudist. Yes, I am working on losing weight but its not because of my self image rather it is to get down to where my doctor would like to see me. | |
| Nudist News |
|
| The following review is not necessary the view of NCH its sponsors or management. I just saw the movie Wanderlust it alleges to take place at a nudist camp. This is typical Hollywood thinking when it comes to nude recreation. What will it take to let the public know this is not what we are. The portrait of a nudist camp being 70’s hippies and everything that goes with it. Ther is a movie available that indeed shows nudist resorts in a positive lite that is “Act naturally” which I saw a year ago. This movie is ready to be seen but is not getting to theaters. So currently it is only being seen by people like me who travel to preview showings across the country. Maybe this movie has to be delivered via direct sales on DVD. | |
| Nudist Teachers |
|
| My teaching experience comes from working with children in a non-profit organization. I was responsible to teaching children about computers and in the 70’s instructed teenager’s photography. Yes, they blame the teacher however we get children who are not taught by their parents to respect adults. In Chinese culture children are taught to respect one’s elders even if they are not family members. I know this because a boy from a Chinese family told me how upset he was about the way other children acted behind my back. Sometimes I hear people on talk radio say children have no respect or morals because prayer has been remove from schools. Morals are the responsibility of parents. So as I have heard when one points at another for the responsibility is sure you have two fingers pointing back at yourself. | |
| Nudist Teachers |
|
| My teaching background is teachng computer skills to boys and girls in an after school program. I know from talking to school teachers that my experiences were the same as thers. | |

| There are competitions in pole dancing where the contestants where a bikini outfit. On the last America Got Talent there were two contestants that did a pole dance. It seams like it is getting general acceptance. Furthermore, especially woman art taking pole dancing for exercise. I am guilty of seeing a striptease performance involving pole dancing I was more intrigued with their athletic ability than there sexuality. If the members are comfortable with this and they are not promoting it to the outsiders let it be. | |

|
| For a single person it is a must that you have a membership in either AANR or TNS. From personal experience being able to say you been to a nude beach is a help. I personally have no problem with the interview gives me a change to let them know I know the purpose of there club and the tour get me familiar where things are located. I still have the question that I started out with does these single policies discourage younger people from trying nudism. | |
| Single Nudists Unite! |
|
| During the night I walk up thinking that when clubs have restrictions on single entering or becoming member result in younger people not giving nudism a try. Isn’t it better that admittance or membership be based on chertier. Wouldn’t this result in people meeting and potentially becoming married. One would definitely find someone who also enjoyed the nudist lifestyle | |

| My definition of a social nudist is one who likes being around other people and just happens to be comfortable being nude. | |

| I am a social person so for me if I came into money I would become a snow bunny by establishing 2 residences, one in Arizona and the other somewhere in PA. I would look for a place where singles are accepted as equal, after all that is my current status. | |
| Absolute Naturists |
|
| I saw in another group (new to nudism) about reasons to be nude and sense I am not a member of that group I thought I would post my response here. I like being nude for me. It’s not about what others think. Being nude means that my skin is able to breathe and not have impressions from clothing confining my body. A body created by God. | |
| Absolute Naturists |
|
| There has been an endorsement of naturism by the TV program “The Doctors” and featured the owners of the Terra Cotta Resort. To take this one step more there have been religious leaders that spoke positively of naturism. For example Pope John Paul II said “it is not being nude that is the sin it is what you do when you are nude” This gives people who open minded enough to try nudism but there are those who will never accept it. | |
| Nudist Individuals |
|
| Aldebaran, I must disagree with you. There is a difference between the beaches and resorts. At the beaches you have people show up who may not be AANR or TNS members so they don’t understand what nude recreation is about. On the other hand the resorts being part of one or both the above mentioned organizations have standard. Those individuals you saw at the beach would hot have got into a nudist club. As I have said in other posts it’s not just men who act unbecoming sometimes it’s the woman. | |

| I find it necessary to update my last post on this thread. Why would I not approve someone for the group Single Nudist Uite! Who has a blocked profile? Primary this group is for singles. Note I have approved 1 or 2 people but that was because they had something to say in support of the issues single nudist had. I do have a concern that there are people out there trolling to find who is single in that I include both woman and men. So if you want to join this group please unblock your profile. Thank you! | |

| We are told and I for one believe it naturalism is not about sex but de stressing. Then why should a resort question our relationship status. Unless they don’t believe that being nude isn’t sexual. | |

| They probably hired an ad agency that is aiming at certain demographics. Yes, there looking for the business of young people for honeymooners. You all have heard the expression “sex sells”. I recently saw a video on this site about getting younger people to try nudism and the younger people were saying they weren’t interested in the same things older people were. It’s ashame. | |

| We are told ignorance of the law is no excuse. Then we have lawyers that are like a gang extorting money from us to explain what the law is. In New York it is a case of state court handing down a ruling that woman had the right to be bare breasted any ware a man could. I do not know if the state legislature passed a law to reflect that decision. | |

| I thought that when someone was arrested that the Officer had to enter section of the law being violated in the form ### of the public decency ordinance. Unfortunately, Police Officers will not learn until someone files legal suite against the city they work for. | |

| I was a member of singlenudist, it is a good site. My problem is within the geographic area of 200 miles was only able to find 1 person. Yes, I am having positive vibes from her. If I had lived in what I call the Nudist Belt meeting people would have more positive results. Note: the Nudist Belt is the area from California across the southern states to Florida. | |
| Absolute Naturists |
|
| There are 2 factors that affect being able to meet a woman open to nude recreation. 1. There is lot more men who are nudist compared to the number of woman. Woman may see this is a positive. 2. Depending on where you live may affect the odds of meeting someone. Those living in California or Florida are going to have better chances of meeting someone. Speaking from personal experience on one site I canvassed an area of 200 miles I found 20 woman that were in an age range that made sense to me. I sent email’s to them and only heard from one. But, I am feeling that that one is a good match for me we just have to wait until we can get together. | |

| Being positioned in NE PA you would easily draw from NJ and NY also. I think AANR would help give you advice on how to start a group. In the case of the Y you probably would have to rent the whole building so there wouldn’t be a problem of someone coming into the pool area unexpectedly. The only reason there is not nude swimming at the Y is because of title 9 which required them to become co ed. I know I would consider attending an event as long as I would be able to travel via public transportation or at least as close to the event as possible and meet up with someone. I is just a little tight to schedule an New Years party this soon. The non landed club would be in position to utilize facilities at a landed club such as PSHS. You are indicating that you are open to accepting singles at your event which I consider positive. As long as the person respects the concept of health nudist recreation. | |

| I don't know where I saw the following but it made an impression on me. A Leader pays no mind to the material things in life A Leader shuns the glory of war A Leader plays no part in politics A Leader show one side while hide the next A Leader should not follow titles for titles are don’t make the leader A shall not worry about medals because dead leaders worried about theirs A Leader shouldn’t worry or admire greed or cockiness because some leaders past and present still can’t get it right. A Leader shouldn’t say war is the way to settle a dispute- because in war there is NO WINNER A Leaders son in old age should bury their fathers but a war lusted leader will bury their sons. A Leader "in the time of peace prepares for war" but a true Leader knows the war is within its own walls. A Leader a true Leader knows that what was written or typed above the world would be perfect no worries at all no pain, suffering, selfishness, stubbornness, or the things that I see in leaders of the past and present (Decide, Lies, untrustworthy, two faced, and heartless) A Leader shouldn’t take sides (Democrat, Republican, Tea, independent,) because they mean nothing just titles. But a smart Leader knows the true and only Leader will emerge from the people untouched by man driven only for the people and by the people. To where the Dollar is its life source but to where it’s given to all of us. Poverty, hatred, decite, betrayal, is not in their vocabulary. All of these things of what A leader shouldn’t be I see every day and I ask myself everyday out of all these leader None are worthy of being called a counties leader nor world leader many follow what they think are leaders or claim to be one- but the answer I get over and over is - I still haven’t seen nor heard one yet! | |

| I had been asked about this by my nephew so I turned to a medical sight the doctor who replied said the hot water at 104 degrees would kill of any harmful bacteria. It is important that everyone shower before entering the hot tub or pool. At the place I go to everyone abides by this rule. If a person doesn’t they should be discouraged from coming back. | |

| Children are born naturist, they are comfortable being and may even prefer it. Its when we chastise ridicule them for being nude that they get the wrong idea. I had the experience of having a 3 year old boy live in my house with his grandmother. He would take everything off and run around the house nude and sit on my lap and carry on a conversation. The problem is you have to tell them that some places want you to wear something. I met twins that referred to flotation devices as swimsuits so if they went somewhere that swimsuits are the standard they learned there was a different kind of swimsuit to where. In the example of the 3 year old his grandmother did not approve but she did not say anything (that was good). To me she would say your nudist belief were rubbing of on him. I do have to clarify that when he sat on my lab I was warring clothes. | |

| My dressing style the past 3 years has been quite different. I where a kilt all the time except when it gets really cold. When I am traveling in the city where I live I do where underwear because just incase a wind were to cause my kilt to blow up causing some people to be upset. However, when I go to a nudist venue I ware nothing under the kilt. I also have traveled some distance like going to New York and Philadelphia the last I was on my waqy to Cypress Cove last April (2011). | |

| Who benefits from telling woman they must cover up their breasts? Pornography (peek show mentality) Strip clubs (peek show mentality) I’m guilty of this one more out of curiosity I do admire their physical ability but that is as far as it goes. I still respect them. Above all the clothing industry that tells woman you need to dress according to the clothing we design. When clothing does much more to draw our attention to the female body. We as humans should be more open minded than all the other creatures on earth. If animals can do their daily tasks without concentration on the sexual part of life except when it’s there season to think about next generation. | |

| Top freedom in NY has been around over 20 years to my knowledge there has been no problem. So what’s wrong with the rest of the country? Even before I went nude on a beach I couldn’t get it why a woman was considered inappropriate. If anything clothes draw more attention to a woman’s body than being nude. I wonder why woman haven’t rejected the idea of stuffing there breasts into bra’s. | |

| I think some misunderstanding of group owner. We are not owners as in house owner etc. we probably should be called group administrators. We volunteer our time to the group. There are good reasons why group owners approve members. When we approve someone we do it because there profiles they have some relationship to that topic. Letting anybody post anything in any group would have us owner “mopping up” irrelevant or inappropriate remarks on a constant bases and some of us would lose interest in serving the position of group owner. Some of you may not like the current system but it is not broken. Why fix something that is not broker. | |

| The most recent thing I heard regarding nudity was well God made clothe for Adam and Eve. There for we are required to lare clothes. She was concerned that the firefighters across the street could see into her apartment. I tried to explain that they are professional and have seen every thing. She almost started arguling with me I had to just hode my tungue. Yet they will try to restrict our right to enjoy being nude. | |

So the letters probably came from diffrent people. On that particular site they gave a city and state that would get a persons curosity. They said they got robbed and needed money to get home that the manager would not let her go until she paid. I told her to contact the embacy shat no one could hold you.

| The resort I typically visit is PSHS (Penn Sylvian Health Society) located in Mohnton, PA. A rustic resort that has retrofitted the facilities to make them accessible. I had learned from a local advocacy group actually advised PSHS on what they needed to do. Like to hear from some other places as to how accessible facilities are. | |
| Absolute Naturists |
|
| One way more people can get involved is to help your local club with activities. So often with any group there are so few people working to help make the organization work. Then there people setting back complaining that there is nothing going on at the club and claim that the resort is failing and there is nothing to do. Who’s to blame for that? If potential visitors see there are things to do they will come. In other words you have to wet there appetite to visit. We also advocate when we tell others about naturism and how much we enjoy the lifestyle. | |
| Absolute Naturists |
|
| As one coming from an advocacy group I can tell you advocacy must include all members. We start by being members of a national group such as AANR or TNS for they serve to let us know what’s going on. We are advocates when we tell others about the benefits of being nudist and how much we enjoy social nudity. Our behavior speaks volumes as to what naturist means. Furthermore anyone who can abide by the rules of conduct regardless of race, nationality gender, relationship states or disability. | |

| When I was at the NCH meet up in April of 2011 I had the opportunity to see the facilities at Cypress Cove. The place is completely accessible to a person with a physical disability. There is one problem, where the management has to consider the safety of its guest over accessibility. The pools and hot tub have a raised lip around that is there to prevent alligators from taking a swim with the guest. However, with the friendliness of the members I feel that obstacle can be overcome. There Brochure states that there facilities are accessible for the physically challenged I would have suggested that would have said accessible for persons with disabilities. My reason is the term they used came from Richard Simmons. That would be like the textiles calling our resorts naked communes. | |

| I'm not saying that there should be background checks rather the staff of a resort could just have a short conversation with the visitor to discover the persons attitude. People who deal with the public should be in tune with the people visiting. Not only that but background checks cost money. Money better used for providing services to visitors. | |

| Nudist venues should base the decision to admit an individual based on the ethics of the individual and not the fact that a married persons mate attends. Just maybe in time both may come. This concept should also apply to single males as well. A little cross over from the topic of “Nudist Bill of Rights” which was part of the AANR by-laws changes made last year. The purpose was to let the local clubs focus should be. | |

Yes it’s a beginning but they should not use it as a crutch. Yes I understand some people just can't walk outside nude. I am sure we all understand that. Your afraide someone mite report that you like to be nude and fire you. That's why we have organizations to take care of our bill of rights to be nude.

| As I see it “like minded” referrers to our core belief that being nude is good, healthy fun and being with others who enjoy all that comes with that. For the most part all nudist are accepted the way they are. I don’t think we think 100% alike if that was true we would be robots. We still reflect our own concepts of life that are as varies as does the general public. I don’t think we even need the term likeminded when all we need to say nudist or naturalist why are we adding additional words to explain our beloved lifestyle. | |

We have over 460 members in this group. I wold like to see more people participate in this group by posting.

| John chapter 21 is where the story of the deciples fishing. They were fishing naked and when they went to Jesus they put on a garment. They were nude sense there clothes were for land use (no swim sute).. The reference In Timothy has to do with excessibe jewry that they should not flont there welth. That is also why woman were to cover ther head in church to cover the trinkits in there hair. | |
| Questions, Help and Support |
|
| Based on my experiance NCH does not send rejection notices. Most of the time I have rejected someone was there profile was inconsistant with the group. I had one person try tojoin 3 times so I emailed the individual telling them why I was denighing there request. I recently had someone that wanted to give positive support to the group so I let them in and they promised to withdraw from the group in a couple of days and they did. I think the only person who mite have good reason to hide there profile is someone who would use there real name as user name or they used there nick name. I have said before that the surch engins can not match real names and user names. SoI wish people on this site would relax about this issue. | |
| Christian Naturists |
|
| Now thai I have read the chapter involved I can tell the person was way off base. For if any nudist did that they would be asked to leave our vaforate resorts or beaches. One can be just as moral nude or clothed. As I rember a quote from Pope John Paul Its not the act of being nude rather what one does when nude. | |
| Christian Naturists |

| Thanks, Myheart told me that it was a miss interpertation. Now if someone uses that like I will be moreprepared. | |

|
| During the past year I had a roommate and on occasions we would have discussions about my nudist activities. She would incurage me to go to the resort. This would allow her to have time at the house by herself. There were times she would question my activities or bring up discussions about the morality of it. One time she said that it is written in the bible that children should not see the nakedness of their mother. She could not tell me where I could find this verse so I am asking if anyone knows where this is written. I know if I could read this for myself I could get what it was in reference to | |

| Just wanted to say thanks for letting me join this group. Getting to know that I am accepted in GOD's sight if I am nude or clothed. In the future hope we can discuss scripture that is misinterperted by non naturist | |

| Living in a city it is very restrictive. However, In September I had to go to the hospital for surgery and I was taking a bus there. I was waring a kilt in the finest Sotttish/Irish tradition. Oh, Yeah that felt liberating. Comming home the nurse asked me about underneath. My reply was "That's clasified information". She said "good answer". The hospital instructions had said to ware loosly fitting clothes as I had back surgery and needed to avoid having pressure on the back. Would I do that again you yah you betcha. | |
| Single Nudists Unite! |
|
| Yes, Cheri is one open minded woman your in good company when you attend events with her club. I am sure she is encouraging you to join one of the 2 national groups and membership has its privages. A discount when attending clubs is not bad can actually gain back the membership fee in discounts. | |
| Single Nudists Unite! |
|
| I was thinking as I was approving new members for this group it might be a good idea to join AANR or TNS so the clubs would see you understant what is expected of you when visiting a club. With AANR approved in the last election for amendment of bylaws that among other groups that single individuals would not be discriminated just for being single. | |

| I could understand if your user name was the same as your full name. I am sure no 1 does. A potential employer does a search for the name on the resume not user names. Maybe some use that as an excuse for not revealing anything about them selves. The last part I agree with you those profiles that have nothing about the individual having the profile. It may be that they forgot there password and don't bother to request the pass word. There are some people who have not log in for a year those profiles should be eliminated. | |

| Jim, you will find that most sincerely disabled individuals would not take advantage of the parking tag. If a place is compliant with ADA there are enough spaces bases in the idea that 1 in 5 is disabled. | |

| I think skinny dipping means diping ones skin in the water regareless how stuffed our skinn is. LOL | |
| Naturists with disabilities |
|
| Those with the disabled placards and do not appear to have a disability probably have someone in the family who is disabled. This problem has probably been going on ever sense the first disable parking tags were issued. It seams that someone driving around with the tag hanging from the rear view mirror could be pilled over for that then the officer could make the determiniation that the person was miss using the tags. | |

| Don't have to be Scottish or Irish. If you like the feel of a Kilt go for it. Several Weeks ago a black man asked where he could buy one. Furthermore a Hispanic older gentleman congratulated me for wearing a Kilt. My house mate thinks people will have the wrong image of me. I think she is wrong. At least with more educated people..H have even started whearing a kilt to church | |

| I currently in the process of making a move. Was talking to someone from my church. She asked me about where I was looking. I told her that I had 1 place as a possibliity. Then I said I would look into another option. She pressed me for details. I started by saying thatI did not regard my body as sinful and I actually am looking into a place that has nude facilities. Her reaction was positive. She is a retired nurse so she should be more open to what I said. | |

| Onza, sounds like the police had already desided to fine the participants. They were just looking for someone to come forward to complain. Isn't it supose to be majority rule. Maybe there could be signs that say if nudity offends you don't go down this street between the time y to x. your cooperation is greately appreciated, thank you. | |

| Last night I was chating with a childhood friend of my sister. I told her about hoping to move somewhere that I could enjoy swimming nude. Her reply "That sounds like a cool idea" She admitted how much she dislikes swim suits. She just knowes she has to overcome the shyness factor. | |
| Pennsylvania Nudists |
|
| It doesn't have to be just for you and the wife include the children.Depending on there ages it may be easier said than done based on there age. For example my room mate has a grand son who likes to take his clothes off and run around nude | |
| Single Nudists Unite! |
|
| joru, Start out with just conversation on any topic. There is not a sure fire way to garentee that your date will want to go. Maybe let her know why you are a nudist. Check previous discussions in this group I'm sure you will find some good tips. Maybe going to gunnison with her where there is no pressure to go nude. I understand that a person see how much people injoy being nude will get her to give it a try just don't force it that can be the greatest disaster | |

| In order to keep some sense of decorum in this group some times as owner of this group I find that I have to delete post and terminate members. So is the recent post who now is not a member of this group. I will not memtion who that was. I felt the words did not speak well of singles especially single men. I would say that almost 100% of you respect all others in the group. I like to have people contribute meaningful dialog and that you post often so others are aware that we are hear. | |

| Fireprof, I hear you. I had a married man try to join the singles group hear on NCH. He applies 3 times and I denied him same number of times I finally emailed him telling him he didn't meet the criteria. There are those joiners that think it is impressive for people to see how many groups they are in. It's like there is a small group of us that actively post. Group joiners are just part of society because they like to impress others WOW! | |

| Another Milestone has has been reached we have 400 members in this group. People just don't forget to post. That's how others will understand how big a segment of the nudist community we are | |
| Single Nudists Unite! |

| Welcome Greg. Hope to hear your thoughts. To the rest of the members in this group what's on your mind. We are approaching 400 members in this group so we are a group to be reconized as an important population in nudism. | |

| If I can asure someone that people with disabilities will be accepted at a nudist venue then I have done my job. If I can be a resource for someone that is great too. | |

| I wasn't sure where to post this so I thought I would try this string. If sleeping nude and there is a fire in your home and you run out the door nude how will the firefighters respond. I was asked this by my room mate | |
| Progressive Nudists |
|
| I can understand why Spector changed parties. The Republican party has become agenda oriented meaning the leadership dictates how its members should vote. I always thought that Political parties had a general philosophy of what they stood for but not requiring every one to vote the same way. If so they we could same a lot of money by having proxy government. Meaning in the election we would vote Dem. or Reb. and all votes for 2 years would be bases on that vote. So if there was 235 in 1 party and 200 in the other party all votes would be those numbers. Of course I am being sarcastic. | |
| Progressive Nudists |
|
| Based on the people I have talked to Naturist can reflect the complete spectrum of politics. Each of us have come to the nudist lifestyle based on personal criteria. Furthermore, those decisions may be based on there own interpretation of what is right. Wouldn't it be nice if we could always come to reasonable conclusions. | |
| Absolute Naturists |
|
| FireProf, I couldn't agree with you more and I am coming from the perspective of a widower. I don't want a woman that she is going to do a extreme makeover of what is me. Take me as I am. I furthermore, promise that I will not try to make a woman change things about herself ether. | |
| Absolute Naturists |
|
| If anyone who knowes me and checks my profile on facebook they will discover that I am a nudist. I just not going to hide the fact | |
| Single Nudists Unite! |
|
| This is intended to remind people in this group. Its time for an update on clubs that are hosting events for singles. Have some clubs moved away from being single friendly? | |
| Single Nudists Unite! |
|
| As a group how can we advocate for the acceptance of single (no partner) at nudist facilities? First it has to be communicated that just because we are single doesn?t mean we are pervert minded. There are probably perverted married people as well. I not saying that all nudist venues discriminate against singles. Now skeak up and give your point of view. | |

| I hope that members of this group will start posting events for singles. We have over 360 members in this group. We are a significant population. Lets not just talk about the lack of inclusion of single people lets do something about it. Lets see more posts from this group time to come out of hibernation! | |

| Having learned about nude/naturist lifestyle and being a widower I have tried to meet someone who I could share this experience with. As has been said in another thread the disproportion of male to female is one of the biggest obstacles. I have discussed this with three women that I felt comfortable with talking about the enjoyment of nudism. For some reason they were the right woman to discuss this with. One of the three even mentioned on her own that it would be nice to de-stress and might even join me one day this summer. The second told me that she had gone skinny dipping as a teens and understands that I am not a creep for wanting to enjoy nudism. The third is my house mate who also understands, but hasn?t come to the point of trying it. So at this point I want to make sure the woman I date understands and will not prevent me from enjoying the sun in the summer. | |
| Absolute Naturists |
|
| probably the best source of information on this is to read the posts on the group "Woman Helping Woman". The woman moderator in the group "Single Nudist Unite!" has actually recoment that men read those posts. For many of us older men we remember the days when swimming at the YMCA was done nude. | |

| March 4 a non nudist friend of mine had posted on his facebook page about a family in NJ forced to cover up a snow woman. see this this link http://estergoldberg.typepad.com/views_from_a_broad/2010/03/new-jersey-family-asked-to-cover-up-nude-snow-woman-another-sign-of-religious-nutjobs-and-their-stup.html He had made a comment about the complaint was a conservative attitude. I responded it was more of a general American attitude. I also pointed out that I am a nudist and used a quote from Pope John Paul II. He responded by saying that he agreed with me | |
| Absolute Naturists |
|
| Hojo I was also confused as to what you were saying was illegal being nude at a unofficial nudist beach or handing out info on AANR and TNS. If you get into a discussion about the wonderful world of nude recreation and talk about two great organizations that advocate in the interest of nudist/naturist there should be no problem. How ever if you were standing at the entrance to the beach maybe there could be a problem. Just not sure. | |
| Absolute Naturists |
|
| I agree with you sunbunny. As one who started to learn about the true joy of naturism circle 2000 it was not until I stripped at a beach in 2007 that I learned what it really was all about. So prior to 2007 I could be considered a home (or closet) nudist. For those of you that this statement applies to maybe this is the year you put on your To Do list is schedule time and go to a beach or resort. The Beach probably would be a good place to start especially if you do not have a membership with AANR or TNS. Most resort/camps have events in the first week in July for people to attend without being a member of these fine organizations. | |

| Periodically I do a search for things related to my name. Today It shows that I am a fan of AANR. However I don't care. I actually had done that on purpose so anyone who knows me will know I am a proud nudist and I don't give a darn! | |

| I'm so called retired but I would take take a job at a nudist resort as a Activity Director/Coordinator. Recently took a Career Evaluation test one of the occupations it lasted that I would be good at was Recreation Director you all know a Activity Director would be would be related to that. Oh, I would be nude when working as long as the temperature was above 60 degrees Fahrenheit. | |

| Just thought of another 1 while reading other post in this group. Nude Recreation Don't knock it until you try it! | |
| Absolute Naturists |
|
| Not sure I got this write. I have heard it said nude when desired clothing when practical. Some of us live where being nude 24/365 is not always practical because of the weather. This time of year our song up hear in Northing US is "I am Dreaming of a Worm summer" | |
| Single Nudists Unite! |
|
| An individual who is married managed to join this group because there profile is private. Most of you know this group is for single people (no spouse) sense our concerns are different from couples. For individuals who do not meet this criteria I would recommend the group ?Nudist Individuals? or ?When Your Partner is Not A Nudist? I have taken the action to terminate this individual from this group. | |
| Absolute Naturists |
|
| The reason I like the nudist naturist lifestyle is that people are accepted the way they are. As a person with a vision impairment I am more accepted the way I am at a nudist resort or beach. Yes people understand that I am different however I am accepted. All That has been written in this topic I agree 100%. If the rest of society was this way it would be wonderful. The only problem is the weather relocating to an area that was more suited to being nude would be a dream come true. | |

| My brothers and sisters who have not had direct contact with me are not not aware of of my choice of lifestyle. They live 300 miles north of me. My Sister 'n' Law via my late wife does know and has said "You go boy"!. Her son my nephew knows too and He has been to nudist beaches around the world.I have been trying to make it known on facebood that I am trying to get at posted on Facebook so my so my brothers and sisters will get the message. Came close to teloling 1 of my brothers when he was talking about coming across a c/o beach as he said Being retired I am not worried about what others think.What I would like to find is a resort that would accepting me moving there and spreading payments over the year being on a fixed income. Have any ideas | |
| Absolute Naturists |
|
| Bryan, I agree with you. This is not about making everyone become nudist/naturist it?s about educating the public who are interested in learning what we are about. That?s why if we had a nudist community we have to start from the ground up as apposed to taking over an existing community. People will not accept change by force.. | |
| Absolute Naturists |
|
| My first nudist experience was at Gunnison/Sandy Hook. It was a wonderful experience. Yes the photo you see of me was taken by another NCH member | |
| Absolute Naturists |
|
| Back when I was a textile and didn't know better there arose a desire to overcome my misaligned understanding. I came across a document from the naturistsociety.com entitled 205 Arguments and Observations. In Support of Naturism. That is when I was awakened. Therefore that is what I would use as my lesson plan with discussion. | |
| Absolute Naturists |
|
| To convert an existing community to a nudist lifestyle we need to find a town where we would relocate to so we would become the majority. We would have to be political active so we could pass laws that would celebrate living nude lifestyle. One of us would have to become Mayor, members of town counsel or whatever the positions are called. On the other hand would have to know what state obstacles may exist. After the entire new minority may fight us on our efforts to make nudism the norm. I agree it should be a place close to populations areas. It might be better to establish this community adjacent to an existing community. As a person who does not drive having access to public transportation would be a plus. I am only aware of 1 resort that has a bus stop at the gate (Cypress Cove) there may be others. | |
| Absolute Naturists |
|
| So far we have had two suggestions where a clothing optional community. However couldent 1 be set up hear in 1 of the wormer states. I have some idea as to what skills would be needed. What skills would you have to make this work. Furthermore, what skills are you aware of that others have that could make this possible | |
| Single Nudists Unite! |
|
| I hope the people in this group. Are reading the posts in "Nudist Individuals". They are having discussion about the discrimination toed people who attend nudist resorts as individuals. The policies about people should be based on behavior rather than how they attend nudist events. I have been told about the behavior of a woman that was part of a couple who's behavior was inappropriate. The resorts need a code of conduct that all visitors uphold. | |
| Absolute Naturists |
|
| You people have been comming up with some good points. Not only contain some good ideas but comming up with examples. Good job continue | |
| Absolute Naturists |
|
| Yes, this would be a community that is an incoperated city. We would have have our own set of elected officials who would put laws together. But, that is putting the cart before the horse. Need the community established so that nudist were the dominate voice in our community. | |
| Absolute Naturists |
|
| I think this dream community would be one where being nude was the normal. That wearing clothes was for when the tempurture was too cold to be nude. The Idea place would be where wormth was available most it not all year long. One time in the chat room we had this discussion. The thought was If it where its own island not under the juristiction of any country. What yould you like to see? | |

| I found the information on Beach would lodge. Based on the description it sounds like a smaller version of PSHS. So Hear is the information I found Beechwood Lodge3.Colony and Resort ProfileAshfield, Pennsylvania Beechwood Lodge is a nudist club based in Ashfield. It is a member of the American Association for Nude Recreation (AANR) and the Naturist Society Participating Resort. Beachwood Lodge takes pride of its rustic setting and environment on top of mountain ridges located just on the foothills of another equally famous Pennsylvania spot ? the Pocono Mountains. This resort offers a perfect nudist getaway with a wide range of fun-filled activities ? all at a very affordable price.The campground is nestled on 38 acres of hilly country side. It has a rippling brook which gently winds leading visitors all the way to the resort. If you're a big nature fan, Beechwood Lodge offers you hiking trails which will take you to scenic spots of the countryside. It also has a wide and neatly-mowed lawn gently sloping ? perfect for sunbathing while engaging yourselves in a good conversation with fellow nudists. This nudist club is open year-round for nudist lifestyle getaways. | |

| I don?t expect that people in general would become accepting of our right to be nude anytime we would like to be. Some are just to perverted in there thoughts do not desire for them to see me nude. What I think would be nice if we could have some communities where being nude was the accepted way of life. By our example people would learn that we had less social problems the textile communities. It would allow within our community to work, shop, drive, play, do things around our homes etc. I use the term community to distinguish it from a resort or camp because the latter are seine as places to visit in order to get away from our normal schedules. A community would be where all daily activities can take place without having to leave. | |

|
| Just feel I need to restate that more people in this group should be trying to get singles events started in there areas. Seams like the only one that comes up with these events is Bellaluna I'm sure other parts of the country could do the same things especially those of you that live in areas of higher populations of nudist. Then when you do please post it in this group so others in your area will attend. | |

| Sunny Rest and PSHS are quite diffrent. So a question back to you is are you looking for a fancy place upscale place then you may want Sunny Rest or if you are looking for a rustic camp ground then PSHS is the place for you. PSHS is open all year round with an indoor swimming pool and hot tub. Sunny Rest is only a summer place open from Memorial Day to Labor Day | |

| Propably animanials think they are the supperier creature. For why do these two lagged animals have to cover up when they go out. A dog when they have to sniff us when they see us whering clothes. However when they see us at a resort nude like them they just look at us from a distance. mmmmmmmmm | |

| Steve aka Tarzan1 I don?t think you understand this is a social network site which you have to do your own cantacting. We have been trying to encourage people to organize activities in their area. You don?t need your own place for such an event but make friends with management of a local nudist resort. NOTE: its not AANR that is anti singles rather individual clubs. This is where we have to assure these people we have moral convictions. The only person who has made a effort to create local events for singles and is Bellaluna the former owner of this group. So if nothing is happening then why not organize something in your area and tell others in the group so others would come to such an even. Remember is your going to do the talk you got to be willing to do the walk Tarzan I think your all wet to how we get woman involved if anything your logic would turn them away. There is a group hear for as you put it woman talk | |

| Well said Jules. Not all people with disabilities have crutches, cains or wheelchairs. When I did disability advocacy I had to remind the public of this fact. Now, seeing a purson run from a car with tags for parking is another story | |

|
| We now have 300 members in this group. I think this shows there are many singles that are true nudist. I would like to see reports from around the country as to nudist events Speak up single people this is your forum where you can be heard. Lets give thanks on this Thanks Given Day. | |
| Single Nudists Unite! |
|
| Hay, people what is going on. Any singles activities going on. We are approaching 300 members in this group. | |

|
| For me nude time consists of when: I go to bed until I finish morning bathing activities. When I have my kilt on expecially in the summer go commando does that count? If the house is empty then off come the textiles. I have also painted rooms in the nude. | |
| Home Nudists |
|
| I have a female house mate who knows that I am a nudist. I can be relaxing whering a kilt but that would have her upset. However she keeps asking me when I am going to the resort. She has even said that I should go there as often as possible. She even has offered to prepare a dish for me to take to a but luck dinner event. | |
| Single Nudists Unite! |
|
| We now hape 280 members in this group. How come you are so quiet. Are you guys shy? Lets see some posts from this group. | |
| Single Nudists Unite! |
|
| Hi all Single United members. You people have been very quiet lately. Lets hear what is on your mind. And If your single and not a member why not! | |
| Single Nudists Unite! |
|
| Ok, hope you all had a good summer. I have to say its been quiet in this group. Whats on your mind. Membership continues to rise we now have 268 members as of 9/15/09. | |

| Aznative, Yes It would be great if more women joined this group. Hopefully, after reading your post maybe they will see where not all devils | |
| Single Nudists Unite! |
|
| So often I have read posts on different sites about talking to women about naturism and the negative response they get. I have now talked to 3 women about the fact that I was a nudist. In the most recent incident I was talking to my new house mate about the fact that occasionally I go to a nudist resort. Her response was ?You should go there often? and that is from a person who just moved in the first of this month. She brings up the topic of being nude often so at some time when I go there for a day trip she probably will go but I have to hear that from her. | |
| Naturists with disabilities |
|
| I like your positive attitude. Becoming disabled does not have to be an end rather opening a new chapter in your life.. I understand becoming disabled is a lot harder that being disabled. For me if something strange like all of a sudden my vision improved that would be an adjustment. The key is making adjustments to change. | |
| Naturists with disabilities |
|
| It was through the struggle of other groups such as blacks and woman that people with disabilities finally got there rights. When that happened in the US it did get other countries thinking ablut how they treated people with disabilities. I have heard the horror stories of how the disables are treated in other countries like in the mid east where they made deaf individuals walk the road so they could find land mines and luse there lives for a people who disbised them. | |
| Single Nudists Unite! |
|
| Tim, what would be the possibility of you having a singles event at one of the resorts in MI. I think you have a number of adjoining states that would bring real naturists together. You are more than welcome to post such an event in this group. You already belong to a site for real nudist that being singlenudist.com The other sites I will not mention as the people are not for real. | |
| Naturists with disabilities |

| Bellalina Happy birth day. Enjoy your day. If anyone sees her today let her know you found out in the groups posting. | |
| Single Nudists Unite! |
|
| I think I have to remind people who join this group its about being single and nudist in an environment that is prymary couples. If you are married and have a spouse that is unconfortable about nudist there is a group calle "When your spouse is not a nudist" that would beat your needs a lot more. the singles in this group are singles not swingers. OK | |
| Single Nudists Unite! |
|
| Sometimes the most direct way can result in finding a naturist friend. Last fall I had mentioned that I relaxed at a beach nude. Her reply was Hope your not thinking that you are shocking me because your not. Today I had another telephone conversation with her. She asked if I got to the beach yet this year. When I said I had not she said let me know when your going and I will go nude with you. She also said "I need to distress" So in July I will take her up with the offer. See honesty is the best policy now I need to cash in on the dividends. | |
| Single Nudists Unite! |
|
| Tim it is a little harsh to say all 211 members of this group are quiet. Because there are some of us that really try to aprticipate in this group. Sure, about 200 never say anything. I think thoses individuals just like there profiles to show that they are single. The silent ones may be about 200. The second part dealing with not being able to ideentify new members to this group would be true for any group you were looking at here at NudistClubHouse.com. I'm also noticing that because the weather is nicer for a lot of people in this group. There just away and know that will start checking in once the weather gets colder | |
| Single Nudists Unite! |
|
| I saw a quote from Boomdriver that I felt was applicable to singles that I had to copy it for this group. "go to where the naturists are!" One might just be surprised how close new friends might be! | |
| Single Nudists Unite! |
|
| Chat suspended for Single Nudist Unite! until September. Its not about members of this group as you are probably enjoying the warm weather and I don't blame you. Furthermore, there were only a handful of people on line at that time. Please! give me some insight as to if the time is inconvenient. So I can plan for the future. And don't forget about posting in this group. That helps to keep this group visible to the rest of NCH membership. | |

| Single Nudists Unite! |
|
| Never did I relize that this topic would have several meanings. I appreciate the posts that have been made just keep on posting so the rest of NCH will know were here. My sergery will be Wednesday, May 27 @ 8:00 AM. I have been informed by my family doctor that the doctor doing the surgery is the best around this area. I should be able to check in late Wednesday. I still have my right eye to get by. | |

|
| Good question and your not in trouble. This site is basically US based. However, I know that Singlenudist.com was and probably still is 2 men to every woman. You are right that Europe is more accepting of clothing optional recreation. I hope this helps you Gary. | |
| Single Nudists Unite! |
|
| Would like to be proven wrong, but it appears from looking at recently on line that women are not log in very often. This is after checking that area over a 24 hour period. That makes this a little more difficult but my persistence will continue. I Just changed my user name to Wayne of PA from Reading_gent. This will make it easier when referring to me. Also would like to thank those who have wished me well with my up coming operation. Also thanks to everyone who has continued to post in this group which makes us visible to the general NCH membership. | |

|
| I reported them last night. These girls work on driving trafic to web cam sites, no there not escorts. However the things they do on cam are not approperate for nudistclubhouse.com so I will say no more as to accidently say something that I should not say. ATTENTION I will not be available for chat next week as I am having eye sergery that day. P.S. Those profiles r history | |
| Single Nudists Unite! |
|
| I wish I wuld report that we had a vantastic chat session. But we didn't and I am not going to blame members for this. NCH was invaded by 2 women promoting there jobs. All I can sam if they had requested aproval for Single Nudist Unite! they would have been denied. I'll try next week | |
| Single Nudists Unite! |
|
| Hojo as Luna told you get off your butt and organize something. It wont just appear. FL has events because Luna did the work to cause it to happen. However, she doesn't travel around the country to organize local groups. Thats where the local people have to decide they want it to happen. | |
| Single Nudists Unite! |
|
| The qualities I'm looking for (not in any particular order)are: 1. intelligent 2. good communicator 3. sense of humor 4. nudist/naturalist 5. Free spirited 6. Accept me the way I am (and I will do likewise. If I think of other things I will modify this entry. If the woman be of another color so be it. In my working career I have worked with a lot of different people. | |
| Single Nudists Unite! |
|
| Luna, before I offered my services to lead this group I was well aware of your frustration. My background is to observe people. To the rest of you join me for chat Wednesday, May 20 at 7:33 PM. Let me know what this group should be doing. C U THEN!!! | |
| Naturists with disabilities |
|
| Some of you may wonder what led to the creation of this group. I saw a post with another group where the writer wanted to know if there was other people with disabilities that were nudist. So I thought there must be others who wanted to share there thoughts with others. If your not a member of this group why not! If your a member post your thoughts. | |
| Single Nudists Unite! |
|
| You, members of this group are you telling me with your silence that the only place that has events for singles is Florida. Furthermore is the only person trying to help singles get together is Bellaluna? Or are yuu trying to keep these events to your self so there is no competition? What the general nudist population may not understand is we are not all never married singles some are widowed and others are divorced. We are good people who just need the opportunity to come together. | |
| Single Nudists Unite! |
|
| Just completed chat for Wednesday, May 13. none of our members showed up. there was 1 member from the general NCH membership who showed up. will schedule the next chat for May 20, @ 7:33 PM. I told you people that I am stubborn | |

| Just approved our 200th member in Single Nudist Unite! We still continue to have a high number of men. I have tried to reach out to women on this site to encurage them to join us. It is important that more of you take an active roll in this group. When I look at the posts they are made by a hand full of us. This is your group for heven sake PARTICIPATE. | |

| With warmer weather coming for most of us its time to get out and enjoy life. Its good for your health and sprats. Find yourself an activity that you are able to enjoy. I really would like to know whats going on this you. Enjoy the summer I am. | |
| Single Nudists Unite! |
|
| Is Florida the only place in the world that has get togethers for singles? That is the impression I get from the posts made in this group. Tel me why we are not hearing from other places. | |
| Naturists with disabilities |
|
| I consider all people with disabilities are welcome. I have a vision impairment The logo I created for this group uses the accessibility simble and accessibility is more that ramps and grab bars. But people don't relize that those non visable disabilities have there obsticles too. I am referring to some one who has a hart or lung or even a back problem. Yes you are deffinately welcome. | |

| NOW ACCEPTING NEW MEMBERS! If you are single and a nudist join our groop. We discuss the issues that are important to singles. Women You are important to our discussions also. | |
| Single Nudists Unite! |
|
| Starting this Wednesday, May 6 I will be opening our chat room SNU at 7:33 PM eastern time zone to discuss things related to single nudist. To enter the chat room do 1 of the following: 1. come to the Single Nudist Unite group and click on the chat icon below the owners picture. 2. from the NCH chat room just click on Single Nudist Unite and click join I want to hear what you have to say I'm all ears! A garantee fact is that I will nag you about this chatr. | |
| Single Nudists Unite! |
|
| This will be where we discuss issues involved in being single in a environment in which being a couple or family is the norm. People shouldn't be acting any diffrent than they would be at a nudist resort or beach. I have heard that there are some guys that are hitting on the women here. If I receive any documentary evidence of this I will terminate that individual from the group. That is not a threat, it is a promis. However, if you are polite to the women and it leads to a relationship, I say good for you! | |

| I had posted this comment in another area of this group but feel it should also appear here. Guys I have a link to a brochure that you may want to print out and leave it where someone can pick it up and read. Caution don't put this in there hands I understand this could look like you are pushy Cheri often recommends this link for women. http://www.travelites.info/brochure.html | |
| Single Nudists Unite! |
|
| Sure this group could be used to meet someome. I would consider someone within 100 miles. For me that would include PA, NJ, DE, MD and VA. And there is nothing rong with a woman contacting a man. Just remembered NCH chat site has a link to Singlenudist.com there is scheduled a chat session for Mondays at 9:00 EST. hope this helps someone. | |
| Single Nudists Unite! |
|
| I feel that women do not have a vested interest in the single sites as there memberships are free. I have been told my women that it is time for women to pay there share. If this were to happen maybe they would be more serious about the process. | |
| Pennsylvania Nudists |
|
| Yes, with the warm weather suddenly upon us in PA. i HOPE TO SPEND SOME TIME AT PSHS this summer as I have become a retired person with a lot of time on my hands | |
| Single Nudists Unite! |
|
| I hear you, but some of it is lack of manners in general with younger people. On the other hand the ratio of male to female is extream, Are woman over whelmed by the emails? just look at the profiles on NCH. Then there are woman who have been on singles sites forever. Are they looking for Mr. perfict? | |
| Naturists with disabilities |
|
| Getting to a nudist resort or beach can be difficult if you don't drive or are not with someone that dose. This is not necessarily a disability related topic. Last year I went to Sunny Rest near Lehighton PA. I was able to take a Trailways bus and then called for a pickup at the bus stop. The day befor this post I read a comment from someone on another site that mentioned Cypress Cove is reachable by local bus that stops at the gate. Tell us about other places that are easy to get to. | |
| Naturists with disabilities |
|
| I have only been to 2 nudist resorts but in both cases I had no problem being accepted. The main place I go is quite accessible and there are people with other disabilities there. What has been your experience? would like to hear from you. | |
| Single Nudists Unite! |
|
| Unless you live in CA, FL OR TX your not not gong to find many profiles to look at. From my standpoint many of the woman want you to accept them the way they are but they are looking for perfection in the man. Yews, the woman can be just as bad about seeking sex first even to the point of having user names that convey that | |
| Single Nudists Unite! |
|
| I'm really not concerned about search engines are going to find out that I am a member of NCH or other such page. My profile only has my user name not my legal name so in doing a search on my name this profile will not show up. However if I type my user name into the search engine then profile is available. Yes, I am aware that someone could type in my name on the NCH search and It would reveal my profile, but this is not how search engines such as google work. | |

| During my life I have been an advocate for people with disabilities for 15 years (1985 ? 2000) I had helped people with disabilities in solving problems. I also did public speaking and a local access channel on TV talking to the general public explaining issues of the day. As for me, I was born with cataracts and at a time when techniques were a little primitive. Therefore is am regarded as legally blind. I have a BA degree in Behavioral Science and have done counseling and vocational work for many years If you have any questions please feel free to write to me Reading_gent | |
| Naturists with disabilities |
|
| For me becoming a naturists with a disability has been positive and I hope it is the same for everyone else. I actually feel that I'm more accepted at a nudist resort than I am in the textile venue. On my lost recent trip to PSHS Inc discovered that there a few people with disabilities there for example amputee, person with a walker and someone with a brain injury. The facilities are quite accessible with ramps, grab bars. | |
| Single Nudists Unite! |
|
| Hat a tip from the owner of a non landed club. At her web site she has a page that she suggest be printed out and just left around with out comment http://www.travelites.info/brochure.html You will see that it is non gender oriented | |
| Single Nudists Unite! |
|
| I am sure there are many ways to let woman know that us men enjoy nude recreation. The key is discover the moment. Several years ago, my sister in law was telling me she just witnessed a woman having a clothing malfunction. She thought that if I had seen it would have got excited. My reply was so that was an unfortunate incident for the woman and a man has no business being excited by every woman who walks down the street. Therefore, she understood where I was coming from. One day I told her I went swimming nude and her reply was ?You go boy.? Turns out when she was a teen she went skinny-dipping in a near by lake and did not know such places existed. Therefore, there must be 50 ways to tell a woman about nude recreation. Let us hear yours. | |

| I have been going to Penn Sylvian Health Society (PSHS) for almost a year and enjoying my experience at a rustic club. A lot of activities on the weekend and the indoor pool and hot tub available through the off season Also been to Sunny Rest Resort a more upscale resort | |
| Single Nudists Unite! |
|
| I have been to 2 resorts in PA: Penn Sylvian Health Society (PSHS) Sunny Rest Resort I have been treated fairly at both by the resort staff. The people have been polite. The people at PSHS have actually included me in conversations. I actually had a single woman at PSHS introduce herself to me and that is OK. I have only been involved in the social scene coming up on a year. My dating skills are a little rusty being that I had been married for 21 years having my wife pass a way 2 years ago. | |

| Hi, my name is Wayne. I live in Pennsylvania.I'm enjoying the nudist lifestyle It would be nice to enjoy the lifestyle with someone gets lonley going by myself. | |
