"Sure, some people might believe they are offended by Naked bathers,
but, if you never encounter anything that offends you in your
community, you are not living in a free society."
- Corky Stanton
Isn't Nudism Bad? Are
naturists All About Sex?
The lack of understanding and ignorance
affects naturists in a negative way. We are confined to very few
private (and expensive clubs) and our back yards. We don't have the
rite to use any parks or beaches because of the strong opinions
against nudism of MPP's and because we are such a small minority. If
half of all Canadians were naturists then we would have sanctioned
areas. Perhaps there are ways around restrictive legislature, but
finding that route is the difficult part. The bible describes Adam and
Eve, Naked in the garden of Eden. There was no shame or immorality,
just beauty and happiness. This makes me wonder why so many religious
icons declare nudity immoral. Perhaps they chose to ignore the
meanings that Genesis demonstrates.
The anti naturist point of view is
that not wearing clothing is shameless. However, naturists can not
quite understand the fixation with shame. We can not quite understand
why one should be ashamed of their Naked body. Perhaps shame comes from
being scared to acknowledge one's imperfections as normal. Naturists
agree that they are not shameful of the human body, perhaps it is this
that binds the community.
Mentally, there is an association for
many people between nudity and sex. Since there is an association that
is already present, it is sometimes assumed that there is overt sexual
conduct in the nudist/naturist environment. This is very much untrue,
since the nudism community has strict rules about no sexual behavior.
It is more Young in the naturism environment than it is in other
places because the naturism community is a family environment. The
nudity equals sex misconception is embedded deep within many people in
the world today. The only way in which naturists can counterbalance
this misconception is by educating the non-naturist people.
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. |
