"I believe that people have the right to their own beliefs. I do not
feel people have got the right to stop me from expressing my beliefs
by picking up the phone, calling the police and having me put in
prison." - Steve Gough, he intends to walk
from Land's end to John O'groats (the length of the British Isles)
naked.
BUT WHAT DO
PEOPLE GET OUT OF IT? IF IT'S NOT ABOUT SEX, JUST WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
It's about relaxation, freedom from
restriction - and to a very large degree, it's about honesty.
Naturists are judged on their
personalities alone. They take away the trappings that most of us have
around us every day. They have less to 'hide behind'. This is very
healthy, because it means that friendships are built on truth - as
people get used to being open with each other, there is less
temptation to embellish! Many naturists form very close non-sexual
friendships, with a very strong bond. Honesty also spreads to most
other aspects of naturist living. At naturist resorts, thefts and
other crimes are almost non-existent.
Being Naked can also be incredibly
relaxing. The feeling of air, sun and water on the skin is a terrific
stress reliever. Most people know this, of course. Even non-naturists
can't wait to rush to the coast on sunny days and divest themselves of
all but a tiny fraction of their clothing! It's really not that great
a step to go from wearing a swimsuit the size of an amoeba to wearing
nothing at all. The extra feeling of freedom though can be very big
indeed. Many people suffering from stress or pressure at work have
said that being at a naturist resort is the best way of alleviating it
that they know of!
Many naturists engage in sporting and
other leisure activities. These can obviously have a positive health
benefit, provided you don't overdo it!
And just think. Women need never
worry again about turning up to a party in the same outfit as the
hostess!
IT CAN'T BE
HEALTHY FOR CHILDREN THOUGH, SURELY.
On the contrary, children who grow up
in a naturist environment usually have far fewer hang-ups than other
kids. Once again, they are not being subjected to premature sexual
situations - they grow up around other children and adults,
understanding that the body is not something to be hidden and ashamed
of. They know anatomy of the human body, and it is less of a 'Young'
to be explored at the earliest opportunity. There are fewer incidences
of teenage pregnancy, sexually transmitted diseases and criminal
behaviour amongst nudist children than amongst other children.
Children are natural naturists too.
They only begin to know that they are Naked and wonder whether they
should be wearing clothes because adults tell them and dress them in
certain ways.
It's a very sad fact of life that
there are people in society who would harm children or abuse them.
Naturists are not these people. Children and teenagers within a
naturist community are protected - they not only have their parents
with them, but are around their peers and a group of adults who all
view nudity in a natural, non-sexual and healthy way.
SO WHAT DO I
NEED TO BECOME A NATURIST? WHERE WOULD I PUT MY SUNGLASSES!?
Absolutely nothing! Nudism must be
the only pastime for which the only requirement is just what you were
born with. And for many people it isn't just a pastime - it's a way of
life. Of course, depending on what you're going to be doing, you might
want to be prepared. If you're going to be exposing parts of your body
that normally don't even see the light of day, never mind the sun, you
might want to apply a good sunscreen. If you're going to be going to a
resort, you will probably want to make sure you have some comfortable
footwear, towels, maybe a sunlounger etc. You should also check out
the catering facilities, as you might want to bring a picnic lunch.
Basically, it's just the same as packing for a visit to the beach. You
just forget to include your swimsuit.
As for the sunglasses, well friends
have found that nipple rings are the perfect holders for their Ray
Bans. If you don't fancy body piercing, though, a small bag slung
around your neck or carried with you is the perfect repository for
your small change and other necessities.
Short Reading About Nudist Culture
The TBN organization, founded in 1985, is affiliated with The Naturist Society, a national organization. Our membership is open to couples, families, and singles, growing from 18 original members to nearly 200 today.
Our activities include indoor swims, parties, and other events during the cooler weather months. At the swims, you will have the opportunity to play water volleyball, swim a few laps, and socialize with fellow naturists. We currently are looking for a new pool, if you know of one, please e-mail us the information. During the summer, we will travel to landed naturists/nudist clubs around the state and to various clothing-optional sites.
All TBN events are clothing-optional. Most people in attendance will be Naked, but there is no requirement or pressure to be Naked at our winter swims.
Membership in TBN is $20.00 per year, per family, couple or individual. Benefits of membership include our quarterly newsletter OH Naturel and discounted admission to our swims.
You may wish to attend one or more of our events before deciding if membership in a naturist organization is right for you. Attendance at activities before joining, however, is not mandatory.
The Buckeye Naturists is a "family-oriented" group, meaning that conduct at our activities should be as if your family is present.
Please read our Code of Ethics before attending any of our events.

The Naturist materials on this nudist Website are legal in every city, every state and every county inside the United States. They are protected by the First Amendment and are not subject to local obscenity laws or ordinances. The depiction of adults and children Naked in the visual media has enjoyed constitutional protection in the United States since 1958, when the Supreme Court vacated a Court of Appeals finding that Sunshine & Health magazine could be obscene (Sunshine Book Co. v. Summerfield, Postmaster General, 355 U.S. 372). The right to depict adults and children in innocent Naked poses has been upheld without a pause for 41 years. In case after case, the Supreme Court and lower courts have always upheld the constitutionality of "nudity without more," specifically referring to the nudist depiction as a fully constitutional form of expression. Our picture and video galleries are widely promoted in all of United States, Canada, Asia, Europe, South America, Canada, Australia and Africa amond most major countries. The only exception may be countries where nudity of any kind is banned, i.e. Iraq, Syria, and Iran. |
