Nudity Without Eroticism

“Our aim is the healthy mind in the healthy body. We aim to make nudism not merely a fad, but a new social practice. We believe nudism can rid the world of sex ignorance and prudery by making the human body familiar and accepted without eroticism. People ask us why we’re organized, why we don’t just practice nudism as individuals. Well, sir, we believe in this thing, we want it extended and legalized in public places, not merely in such hidden spots as this.” -Rev. Illsey Boone “In learning to become comfortable without clothing , you learn to separate nakedness from the idea of titillating sex. It’s important to learn that when people are undressed together it doesn’t mean sexual arousal is automatically triggered; and if there is arousal, it doesn’t mean you have to act on any sexual feelings. Group nudity works as a method of behavior modification.” —Barbara Roberts
