Nude Body Painting - Body painting is one of our favourite things to do while naked, both at our indoor Bare Night Outs and at outdoor assemblies. It's a lively blend of artwork, creativity and nudity and all you need is a brush (or your fingers) and some paint.<br/>But some really take it the next level as a genuine art form, the body functioning as the sailcloth and turning into a living, breathing work of art. That is what NYC artist Andy Golub does. In public. And in the most congested roads of New York! Andy has gotten a ton of press and caused quite a stir since his reside naked body painting commenced in Times Square and took place in over 20 other public spaces. I got the chance to interview him about his art and encounters with the people and law enforcement.<br/>Andy got his start painting items, subsequently mannequins, subsequently transitioned to painting bodies. Folks have the additional added aspect of style and I always integrate their character into the painting too, he said. Then he began painting live in public so people could view the procedure. But his live work with topfree and completely naked models did not just blend into the crowd in Times Square. The first time he did it, he was kicked out.<br/>Andy Golub's artwork, courtesy of andygolub.com<br/>Coming from a naturist's perspective, I was most interested in learning about the aspect of public artwork and nudity. How does the city and law enforcement respond when they see live art with a lot of skin? (Yeah I've been down this road before.) How can Andy view nudity as an artist and in general?<br/><br/>Public nudity is actually legal in http://troyxxx.com/tube/nudist/free-pics-of-young-naturist-pageant.php when it is part of a play, performance, exhibition or show. (Of course the question must appear, what constitutes a show?) However, when one of Andy's models removed her gstring rendering her completely unclothed in Times Square, policemen were ready with their handcuffs. http://nudenudist.com/tube/nudism/ has been detained once, along with a few of his models for public lewdness. Charges were dropped, but a compromise remains: he is abiding by a rule to paint entirely nude models only after sunlight goes down. NYPD has been notified of this, and Andy does not anticipate further trouble from them when he restarts his work outside.<br/>As expected, you can find people who believe what Andy does is flat out wrong, and though Andy respects their sense of morality, he also says many of them are unable to see nudity without seeing sexuality. I do not believe what I am doing is inappropriate, in fact I 'd even say what I'm doing is just the opposite because it is allowing individuals to see nudity in a nonsexual manner. (Sound familiar?) He says people who do comprehend his work, see that it is totally nonsexual. Everything comes down to shame, he says, and trouble ensues when naked or semi-naked people don't feel others' sense of shame. All too true.<br/>I remarked that it is amusing you are able to hardly tell the models are naked at all when completely painted. Andy answered the controversy just isn't over what people see, but what they do not seea strap or line. Simply understanding the model is nude is enough to create a buzz. Of course the issue of children seeing his work has come up as well. He states, the entire notion that children have to be protected from it entails that it is sexual in nature, that it's a peep show. And I'm not doing a peep show, I am doing art.<br/>Bare Body Art By Andy Golub<br/>Allow me to just share this last quote in which he describes his art:<br/>It's a way for [the models] to take themselves for who they're in their strengths and weaknesses and being comfortable in sharing that with others, which can be difficult. Most or all of the individuals who get painted have somewhat of a liberating experienceMe and the model join with each other and we do it in full public view so people can link with us. In a lot of people's lives there's a certain disconnect that is the result of technology and the way we communicateUltimately I believe my artwork is about human link.<br/>Wonderful! It is possible to see more of Andy's art and press coverage on his site at andygolub.com<br/>What do you guys think of his work? What can you think of the town's response to it?

VH1 Dating Naked Episode 3 - Well only at that point, the first season of Dating Naked has finished. But the good thing is, it's been renewed for another season! So we'll really get to see more uncomfortable nude first dates, more nude sports and maybe more naked wedding(s)? Here's my review of episode 3, which will be a unique one because it resulted in a litigation (more on that later).<br/>In this episode, we meet 28-year-old Diane from Nyc and Keegan, 26, from Pennsylvania. Both only came out of 5 year long relationships and are prepared for new love.<br/>The two strip down for their date, and this is one small part of the show that I Have never enjoyed. It's like they can't reveal the private parts on TV, so instead they hone in on the private undergarments to make it a little more lascivious. This episode is kind of an exception, but there's generally a little too much focus on the undressing.<br/>Diane and Keegan meet naked and the awkwardness is palpable. Diane is intimidated by how pretty Keegan is. They speak, assess each other out a bit and then proceed to go on their amorous spear fishing date. Putting on snorkel gear and stabbing fish? What could be more intimate!<br/>I don't believe this is what Katie bargained for when she requested a "ride or die type of guy." Pic: VH1 Nude Relationship<br/>Keegan nabs a miniature fish that did not deserve to perish. Diane on the other hand, gets the enormous grab worth cooking (or trying to anyway). They relax on a boat with some wine and make an effort to really get to know each other. But for all the stuff about how being nude takes down borders, Keegan does an excellent job of keeping his up. Diane makes the effort but he certainly does not want to open up. They return for their rooms at the villa, say goodnight and hope for better 2nd dates.<br/>Diane's second date is with Dan. Dan is obviously nervous and chatters away as though silence might kill them both. Compared to Keegan, Dan is an open publication. We immediately learn he's never had a serious relationship and lost his virginity at the age of 24 (not that there's anything wrong with that). He continues to talk nonstop as they go paddle boarding. The two of them sat on one single paddleboard. Diane is turned off by his yak, but after warms up to his gentlemanly ways.<br/>Keegan's second date is with Jessie from Long Island, NY. She comments on how well endowed Keegan is and that it is fine to know this upfront. She is incredibly comfortable being naked and thinks nothing of it. For their date, they cover each other in mud as a spa treatment and Keegan finds this to be a little too intimate. Consequently we have our first instance of man arousal on the show! No full-on erections but he does get just a little aroused. Jessie does not appear to care and is actually flattered to believe that she'd something to do with it.<br/>They toss around a football while the mud is drying and then Jessie playfully tackles him. This is where it all went wrong as far as clouding the genitals go. For one split second when this episode first aired, the blurring technician (I just made up that title) missed a place. Jessie's vulva and anus were shown for all to see. It was just for a split second and most people probably missed it, but as far as she is concerned, this was a life-destroying minute.<br/>While we all know this isn't really accurate, proving so may help win her 10 million dollar suit that she's brought against VH1's parent company - Viacom (in addition to two other production companies). In her suit, she claims this split second mishap resulted in her going through serious emotional distress, mental anguish, humiliation and embarrassment. She agreed to get naked on reality television in front of camera crews along with the remaining world, but a crotch shot .<br/>According to an article in the NY Post, Jessie got made fun of on the Internet and her grandma is most likely mad. She is also claiming that a new flame never called her back after the episode aired, ruining any chance they might've otherwise had for a long term relationship.<br/>That is certainly truly the sign of an actual ideal partner one that would a dump a girl because her crotch showed up on TV for a second. But funnily enough, the fact that she went on a naked dating show searching for love wasn't the supposed problem at all.<br/>And now back to the nude daters. After their second dates, everyone meets at the villa for some booze and socializing in the pool. Keegan finds that Dan is a simple target for his aggression and strong-arm him. He brags to Jessie that he would've made Dan shout in high school. Mercifully, Jessie is not impressed.<br/>Third dates Diane notes how it is been progressively easier to get nude with each date. Many players through the season made the exact same observation. This is additional proof that social nudity is no big deal after an extremely brief time!<br/>For her third date, Diane meets Scott who isn't hushed like Keegan or too talkative like Dan. He might be just right. On the other hand, he actually said to the camera which he's going to rock out with his ****out. As a side note, nudies shouldn't use that phrase, ever.<br/>Their date is horseback riding on the strand. Scott is a bit worried about his testicles. While his balls are great, Diane believes his behind appears unflattering in the saddle.<br/>Keegan's third date is a little more eventful. He meets Katie - a crass lady buying a ride or die kind of http://picsnudists.com/tube/nudist/junior-nudist-pageants.php . They go zip-liner naked. Katie, at one point, desires to experience the rush of riding in tandem. They go down together. But when Keegan forgets to pull the brake Wham! Katie's face hits http://wildnudists.com/tube/nudism/free-nudist-family-video.php . She gets dressed and goes off to the hospital, cursing her injuries. Ending of date.<br/>That night at the villa, things go well till Katie shows up. She is now sporting a black eye and a lot of rage towards Keegan. Eventually everyone calls it a night except Scott and Katie who drunkenly make out. Scott appears to comprehend this hook-up is a bad idea and runs away when she visits the toilet.<br/>Next up it is decision day! Diane and Keegan must pick who they would like to continue dating. Diane rejects the two jocks and decides Dan. Keegan chooses Jessie who is less than enthused about dating him again but accepts anyhow.<br/>Katie, unsatisfied with how things turned out, confronts the host of the show, Amy Paffrath. She asks Amy, are you really gonna get nude? (Valid question?) Subsequently Katie says, You and I should go on a date. Amy gracefully declines. Katie expletives out VH1 and gives em all the finger. A pretty fitting end to episode 3 of Dating Naked.<br/>In closing I just want to make a short opinion on the way in which the show portrays bodies. It does feature distinct body types, but most are slim / toned / muscular. They could definitely even it out with bigger bodies.<br/>On the other hand, I like that you can see everybody's imperfections (despite the blurring). You can see who has cellulite (most girls do), where their body fat lies, plus some of the so-called imperfections that make everybody unique. This single aspect of the show is what makes it more body-positive than I would've expected.<br/>Review of check it Dating Nude: Episode 3 by -Young Naturists and Young Nudists America FKK

When we purchased our new health spa, Terlam in Fords, NJ, we were aware that some of the existing members would have concerns with us holding naturist occasions there. The following is an open letter that addresses those concerns.<br/>FKK's new fitness center / spa - Terlam<br/>Dear Terlam Members,<br/>It's come to our attention that some of the Terlam members and Fords community had questions or concerns regarding the FKK Naked Sunday occasions at Terlam. Please bear with me as I 'll do my best to clarify what we do as well as what we stand for.<br/>FKK is an abbreviation of Naturist Portal. It was founded by Felicity and I in 2011 with the aim of growing naturism and http://shockintown.com/post/ukraine-nude-beachs.php underlying principals and worth.<br/>Naturism is a doctrine and way of life that's shared by individuals from all walks of life in every corner of the globe. Naturists believe that a person should be judged depending on their character and how they act, not based on their job, how they look or how much money they have.<br/>For those that see the world as we do, the nude human body is no more sexual than a clothed one. The truth is, we contend that clothes sexualize individuals way more than simple nudity.<br/>We use societal nudity to encourage toleration. We believe in equality and by removing clothing, we also remove social stigmas, status symbols and bias. Without such status symbols, a janitor becomes indistinguishable from a lawyer and hence they're both on an even playing field.<br/>Some of the major dilemmas that FKK handles as an organization are body image and body recognition, behavioral issues for example bullying and fat shaming, women's rights, child pornography, sexuality-related topics etc.<br/>Both Felicity and I've been naturists since the day we were born. For us, the sight of the nude human form is nothing shameful. With that said, we understand that a number of people may believe differently, which is why we have been doing our best to educate the general public about what naturism, in its purest kind, truly is.<br/>You might have read that we're letting adolescents from a specific age attend our events unaccompanied by an adult. Since there is nothing sexual about our events, try to think of it as though they may be going to your PG movie. If they can afford the price of admission then there's simply no reason why they should not be permitted to join. We provide a safe, family-friendly environment for individuals who share our values and morals.<br/>There has additionally been concern over the naked use of our swimming pool. Naturists understand that they must shower before entering the pool. This really is normal practice at every single naturist or oiled beach girl . In fact, swimming nude is much better for many health reasons. There are also quite several sanitary gains. Bathing suits typically contain dirt, detergents, dyes, and other household substances. Additionally, most non naturist swimming pools do not apply a "shower before swimming" policy so chances are that a naturist pool will be much cleaner with less compounds.<br/>When using the work out equipment, naturists constantly sit on a towel and use any equipment while wearing shoes. This is much cleaner than sitting on the bikes with sweaty work out fabrics. Since naturists are extremely respectful, most will really wipe down the machines personally after they use them, even though there's no real motive to accomplish that.<br/>Hopefully, this will set most of your concerns at ease. I recognize the initial news of these events may have come as a small shock and the reaction is clear.<br/>When we let http://shockintown.com/post/grandma-naked-on-beach.php run wild, the fantasy is generally way more extreme than reality.<br/>If you might have any additional problems, I'll be more than happy to answer them. I'm also willing to come and do a group discussion as well.<br/>With Love,<br/>Jordan & Felicity<br/>Tags: body image, new jersey, nude occasions, unclothed swimming, health spa<br/>Classification: Naked News, Naked Party and Naked Occasions, Nudist Site, Social Nudity Websites<br/>About the Author (Author Profile)<br/>Jordan Blum is a lifelong nudie and cofounder of Nudist Portal.

Last weekend we took advantage of the wonderful weather to make our first camping trip of the season! This time we went to Woodstock, Connecticut to see Solair Family Nudist Resort, a 3 hour drive from NYC.<br/>Solair Family Nudist Resort<br/>Solair Family Nudist Resort in Connecticut Review -After paying at work ($70 total for the weekend for 2 of us, including camping), we drove down to our campsite and parked next to its raised wooden stage on which we pitched our tent. (I propose bringing cushy mats because the wood wasn't comfy to sleep on!) A member estimated Solair has 20 or 30 of these individual campsites, in place of an open grass campground. We had a water spout and picnic table and were handily located close to the bathrooms.<br/>Afterward we got a quick tour of the place by golf cart. Solair is actually a big area with 450 acres and over 600 members! Their many facilities include an outdoor heated pool, hot tub, sauna, tennis and volleyball courts, little kids playground, horse shoes and shuffleboard. Next to the unclothed beach is a large outdoor pavilion for parties, live music and other festivities. Their clubhouse is also quite spacious and modern. A game room on the ground floor has a novel-swap library, TV and pool table. Plus there's a desktop computer for anyone to use! (First time we've seen that at a resort.) To get away there are hiking trails and lovely nature areas like this waterfall and garden, a minute away from our tent site.<br/>Our Campsite at Solair Family Nudist Resort In Connecticut<br/>Solair family nudist resort in Connecticut has a sandy plage and lake for swimming and fishing. The pool was not open yet, but having the alternative of http://troyxxx.com/tube/nudist/junior-nudist.php or the pool to swim and sunbathe is a pleasant little extravagance. Specially when the lake is still freezing in the spring.<br/><br/>After the tour we had lunch at Solair's Sunshine Cafe, which is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner on the weekends. The menu has plenty of choices with different kinds of appetizers, burgers, hot dogs and sandwiches at lunch. I had a veggie burger, that was okay, but the fries and onion rings were delectable. Nothing was pricey. On Sunday I had the hummus platter, a healthful enough alternative to hamburgers. In our travels to U.S. resorts / clubs, in terms of food, we've seen zero edibles to snack bars to full-out eateries. Even if you bring and plan meals, it doesn't beat having the option to buy any meals on the premises.<br/>Waterfall at Solair Family Nudist Resort In Connecticut<br/>We also played some tennis, using communal balls (dead balls but familynudebeach ) and racquets from their adjacent shed and after that captured the last rays of sunlight on the playa.<br/>The Plage at Solair Family Nudist Resort In Connecticut<br/>In the end our weekend at Solair was really satisfying, and the members were pleasant and friendly. The crowd was mostly older with some young children, but many members expressed interest in attracting more young adults. Our first suggestion was lowering the rates for individuals under age 30 or 40. When you add up the price of gasoline, prices, food, and resort prices, it gets pricey. Regardless, if you're seeking a brand new place to go, Solair is worth visiting!<br/>To visit or learn more about Solair, see their site: http://www.solairrl.com/<br/>This review of Solair Family Nudist Resort In Connecticut was written by Felicity Jones for - Young Naturists And Nudists America FKK<br/>Tags: clubs and resorts, connecticut<br/>Classification: Felicity's Nudist Blog, Nudist Resort and Re view s, Social Nudity Websites<br/>

private or public settings.<br/>To date, participation in social nudism appears to have attracted more guys then<br/>Girls as quantified by most surveys concerning societal nudity. Usually, naked men<br/>currently outnumber nude girls on clothing optional beaches, and, as formerly stated<br/>in the 2000NEF/Roper Poll conducted by the Naturist Education Society, the approval for<br/>nude beaches still ranks higher among males then females. Actually, the only time the guy to<br/><br/><br/><br/>Girl ratio is about 1: http://troyxxx.com/tube/nudism/ , is in private fkk clubs or resorts, expected to debate<br/>balancing policies imposed by these facilities. Based on Charles Daney, in his post<br/>Women's Issues with Nudity, there are various reasons for this gender imbalance. One of<br/><br/>the largest hindrances is that girls, as opposed to guys, tend to have more problems<br/>concerning body image. Our society places tremendous emphasis on physical looks<br/>stressing slim, perfectly sculptured bodies, when in reality, not many individuals come close to<br/>fitting this profile. Adolescents are the most impressionable, as Lee Baxandall pointed out in<br/>her interview with USA TODAY's Gregg Zagora, young adults are the least likely to<br/>partake in social nudism because of their low levels of body acceptance.<br/><br/>The media<br/><br/>(magazines, TV, films etc.), which are mostly responsible for stereotyping this image,<br/>tend to target females. It is often said that as men get old and reveal signs of aging, they<br/>become more differentiated; yet, as women start to show signs of aging, they become<br/>less physically desirable. Hardly a day goes by that we aren't bombarded with<br/>advertisements introducing new anti-aging products. Even the new Reality TV shows such<br/>as Joe Millionaire, Married by America, and Are You Popular, feature alluring males and<br/>females. What is most astonishing though pertains to the show, Are You Hot?, whereby<br/>contestants are clad in bathing suits and are judged on there looks, physical structures, and sex<br/>Allure. Is it any wonder why males in addition to females have a hard time accepting their<br/>bodies?<br/>Body image is an ever growing concern among Americans, particularly teens. A<br/>recent article in Current Health, implies that most adolescent girls consider the ideal body as<br/>tall, slim, and big breasted. Males are being affected by the media by emphasizing a tall,<br/>lean, and muscular look. According to the National Eating Disorders Association, only<br/><br/><br/>about 2 percent of women have bodies as slender as versions in magazines. What most people,<br/>Particularly teenagers, fail to understand is that models have the luxury of working out with<br/>professional exercise trainers, makeup artists, and nutritionists, making it easier for them to<br/>maintain their looks. Additionally computer artists can air brush their images to erase flaws<br/>and improve their images. In fact, most versions aren't the physical beauties magazines<br/>portray. Additionally, teens are being subjected to unrealistic ideals, leading to less<br/>Approval of their own bodies. Poor body image generally results in lower self esteem which<br/>can cause personal relationships with others to endure.<br/><br/>A major issue is that teenagers<br/><br/>become obsessed about how they appear instead of establishing goals for themselves. Frequently times<br/>teenagers feel the need to compete with others rather than developing strong relationships.<br/>Although the media exaggerates the way men and women should look, the people doesn't<br/>have to buy into their unrealistic standards of attractiveness. Anyone can become an activist by<br/>writing to companies expressing their anxieties as well as likes and dislikes about an<br/>advertisement. For instance, praise should be given to companies who use average looking<br/>models inside their advertisements. On the other hand, criticisms should be sent to advertisers<br/>"glorifYing thinness." 1<br/>As mentioned previously, the Naturist's doctrine is that of self-respect and body<br/>acceptance. Hence, if social nudism were more prevalent, it would give folks a<br/>Opportunity to see for themselves that most folks don't have perfect bodies and perhaps learn<br/>to be more accepting of their own.<br/>Another deterrent for women engaging in social nudism is the fear for their physical<br/>Security, specifically of being raped. Daney points out in his article that there's no evidence to<br/><br/><br/><br/>suggest women are in greater risk of being raped in nude societal environments such as<br/>beaches or resorts, than in http://wildnudists.com/tube/nudist/family-fkk-videos.php . With reference to rape, the<br/>largest risk factor for women is, being alone, regardless of where she is. Consequently since rapes<br/>are a crime of opportunity, women in many cases are encouraged to go in pairs or groups.<br/>Rapists are upset http://picsnudists.com/tube/nudist/family-naturism-video-vk.php . It truly is unlikely that they'd subject themselves to the<br/><br/>Nice, quiet, and relaxing lifestyle of social nudism. For women who'd like to<br/>engage in public nudity but are apprehensive due to concern for their physical safety, one<br/>

Naked Girls Reading In New York Is Reviewed by FKK<br/>Naked Girls Reading NYC - If you are looking for some interesting nudity christmas spirit-ness, this Thursday December 16th check out "Nude Girls Reading 'A Christmas Carol'"! From what I Have read and heard it's basically a group of burlesque women that perform readings of a variety of literature entirely naked (no pasties or anything). So far as familynakedpics know tickets continue to be accessible. But I'll be waiting for Naked Men reading A Christmas Carol.<br/>My pal Sandy sent me a past review he wrote of Nude Girls Reading Science Fiction from last winter. Read on for an interesting and well-written review!<br/>"I went to Nude Girls Reading Science Fiction for various reasons, not necessarily in this order:<br/>1) Sure - went to see the pretty nude girls. (They were indeed pretty and nude.)<br/>2) I 've long had a fascination about the status of nudity in this country, heightened by all the reading I've been doing since Serge started with the early 20th Century German writings. So I was wondering what the hell nudity is being used for now.<br/>(The fast reply, in this case, is non-sensual, but still really hot, "performance art".) (What is the hot/sensual difference? It was unabashedly sexy with a smile and a twinkle in the eye, and so not erotic.) (Eroticism takes http://shockintown.com/post/family-nudity-young-girls.php .)<br/>Naked Girls Studying in New York City<br/>3) I'm interested about my own answers to http://nudenudist.com/tube/nudist/junior-nudist.php under different circumstances.<br/>nr 3 - my results. I was very aware of Parmelee's utopian dream of a society in which nudity would be totally common - an acceptable costume under all conditions. With that at heart, last night's nudity having little or nothing to do with the readings can be interpreted as nudity being just a preferred costume fashion.<br/>When I'm at Rock Lodge, I see nudity as being totally common. Yesterday, for the most part, I found it not common in any respect. Why? Because from the name of the show alone it was presented as a special component, presumed to be sexy, which drew folks in although it did not bring about the reading of science fiction.<br/>As a sub set to that, my reaction altered depending on accessories. All the girls were naked from crotch to collar bone. Barbara, the librarian, wore nothing at all and I found that to be common and comfy - as if we were at Rock Lodge.<br/>The others wore differing blends of stockings, gloves, hats, weird make-up and enormous jewelry; their nudity had not been average at all; I experienced (delightful) discomfort and I was a voyeur. Ordinary theory says that much of today's clothing heightens sexual knowledge by making a point of covering the sexual organs. With the girls last night, other body parts were covered, bringing quite sexual awareness of the bare crotch-to-collarbone place.<br/>Image this: You're in the front row. The stage is four feet away and is lifted four feet. Nude readers stand at a microphone at the front of the stage. Get the sight line? If attention-wanders from science fiction, one can not help pondering the comparative effectiveness of waxing. Really hard not to be a voyeur! (So I didn't attempt.)<br/>An extremely fascinating aspect of last night was that the middle-class crowd of nearly 50 was about 1/3 average looking women of varying ages, evidencing to me that the times they are a-changin', that nudity is not such a big deal and is OK as a performance costume when it's not merely a peepshow.<br/>Bottom line: I enjoyed it for multiple reasons, I'm on their e-mail list and I likely will go again (even though their show next month will be Naked Girls Reading Tween Lit)."<br/><br/>(Mr.) Sandy K.<br/>Thank you Sandy!<br/>This review ofNaked Girls Reading in New York City was released by -Young Naturists and Naturists America FKK<br/>Tags: new york, new york city<br/>Class: Felicity's Nudist Blog, Social Nudity Sites<br/>About the Writer (Author Profile)<br/>Writer of Naturist Blog.

Iliad and even though his presence is short, it really is significant because he personifies unheroic, even antiheroic attributes, and these are reflected in his look. Homer and the later Greek poets and writers made a clear differentiation<br/>between the ugly and the beautiful, the young and the old. Homer had a deep<br/>Grasp for physical prowess and attractiveness as is evidenced in many passages<br/>in his epics. Hector wanted to fight with Achilles and die young and attractive<br/>Rather than expiring old and awful.9 Tyrtaios believed that:<br/>It is shocking when an old man lies on the front line before a youth: an old warrior<br/>whose head is white and beard grey, exhaling his strong soul into the dust<br/>clutching his bloody genitals in his hands: his flesh naked. But in a young man all<br/>is amazing when he still possesses the bright flower of wonderful youth.10<br/><br/><br/><br/>that the Minoan athletes exercised in the nude. The close artistic ties of Crete with<br/>the Cyclades, generally, and Thera, in particular, seem to acquire the acceptance of<br/>many writers. http://damateur.net/youporn/nudist/ of S. Marinatos casts new light upon the<br/>relationship of Crete with Thera in ancient times. Numerous objects of artwork<br/>found on the island of Thera demonstrate the connections with Crete were really close. An<br/>impressive fresco from Thera, discovered in 1970, and dated 1500 B.C.,<br/>represents two children boxing. Marinatos is of the opinion that this fresco is "the<br/>Earliest existing example of artwork representing the real human body of a child's body."12<br/>Each kid wears one boxing glove on his right hand, and a blue cap upon which<br/>curls of short and long hair are seemingly attached. Both kids, between eight<br/>and ten years old , wear loincloths. Consequently Minoan Crete and the Cyclades offer<br/><br/>no solution to the issue of the origin of nudity in Greek sport.<br/>Mycenaean and Geometric Greek artwork certainly show that games in honour of<br/>dead heroes were a common practice among the Greeks. Mycenaean, Geometric, and early Archaic warriors (Fig.4) are occasionally symbolized as exposed<br/>in the parts below their breastplate. This exposure is especially noticeable<br/>during funeral games and other religious ceremonies for the deceased. On three tall<br/>limestone slabs (stelai), found at Mycenae and dated 1600 B.C., are signified<br/>Chariot races. All three stelai are decorated with chariot pictures. There's one<br/>charioteer (Fig.5) for each chariot and all three chariot drivers are nude and<br/>unarmed, except for the sword. These chariot races were held as part of the<br/>funeral ceremonies for a chieftain, and therefore, were considered appropriate themes<br/>for ornamentation of stelai erected over graves.

The First Questions in Our Naturism Guide:<br/>What exactly is Naturism?<br/>"Nudism" is basically a doctrine or a way of life. In http://troyxxx.com/tube/nudist/ , nudism is the belief or practice of going without clothing in proper private and /or public places.<br/>What exactly is Naturism?<br/>What Are Naturists?<br/>The individuals who decided to practice naturism as a way of life are called "nudists". Nudists are regular people who prefer to live their lives free of clothing while in suitable areas.<br/>What're nudists?<br/>Since individuals are naked - Is nudism really about sex?<br/>When practiced in its fundamental and pure kind, naturism is NOT sexual. Nudism is the embrace of being nude, with or without other people, while in a NON SEXUAL state.<br/>Is naturism really about sex?<br/>Is Naturism a socially approved lifestyle?<br/>Nudism frequently represents a family and personal lifestyle option. What exactly is fascinating about naturism is the fact that it's readily accepted across many cultures, particularly those of European ancestry, to contain Germany, France, and Poland. Over nudist camp pictures , social nudity in the United States has become increasingly more acceptable.<br/>Is Naturism a socially approved?<br/>For instance, the American Association for Nude Recreation (AANR), was established in 1931. It was first called as the American Sunbathing Association (ASA). Back when it was created, the ASA only had a smattering of recognized naturist resorts.<br/>Now AANR's network includes over 100 resorts and 150 clubs for naturists to appreciate.<br/><br/>Why do people appreciate Nudism and being naked with others and / or in public?<br/>Lots of people appreciate being nude, but why do nudists seek out the social aspect? First there's the evident fact that individuals are social creatures. They've a desire for connecting with like-minded individuals. In this instance, those who appreciate doing naked activities in a nonsexual way.<br/>But there are special benefits to experiencing social nudity in a social or public setting. Many people find a greater link with others when everybody is naked. In a nudist environment, there is far less ruling and superficial barriers to human link.<br/>Why do people appreciate Nudism?<br/>

nudism in this group.<br/>Now I go nude in my room<br/>Virtually always. In addition , I go bare at the local fkk<br/>Plage (Haulover). This is my favored fkk beach.<br/>Its very easy to get to, there are individuals of all<br/>ages, and they sell beverages and hot dogs on the beach<br/>Plus the water is always warm (87 now) and so is the<br/>weather. I adore going naked whenever possible, its<br/>very comfortable, feels great and life is more fun in<br/>the bare!<br/>Let me start of by giving you a little information about<br/>myself. I am 26 years old and now living in<br/>Aventura, Florida. I've been going nude since I was<br/>17 or so. Besides nudism I also enjoy playing pool,<br/>listening to all kinds of music (except state and<br/>gangsta rap), working with computers, and talking<br/>about autos. Now I Will get into how I got started as a<br/>Fkk.<br/>I was 17 when I first became<br/>Interested about how it felt like to be naked in my<br/>room<br/>When I was 18 a senior in high<br/>school I was on the cross country team. We ran about<br/>http://picsnudists.com/tube/nudist/ or so from a nude beach (Blacks). Individuals joked<br/>about running there, but no one really did.<br/>One day on a run by myself I ran<br/>Close there and decide to run to the nude beach. I<br/>made it there and saw the naked individuals. At this point<br/>I was inquisitive as to what it was like to be bare on<br/>the beach, why these folks did it. I ran to a sort<br/>of isolated part of the strand (only several folks<br/>around me and were not that close.) I took off my<br/>shoes, socks, and t shirt. I sat there for 10-20 min.<br/>I then was relaxed and comfy enough to say to<br/><br/>my self I'd like to get naked and see what it feels<br/>like.<br/>So off came my short pants and<br/>Knickers! I sat there nude for a min. or two afterward<br/>stood up. I'll never forget that moment. What I felt<br/>I can only describe as the most wonderful sense of<br/>Independence I have ever felt in my whole life! I felt so<br/>fee and alive! It was just wonderful to be naked<br/>outside in the fresh air and sun! It felt great... so<br/>Comfy I then ran into the ocean and swam. It<br/>felt so nice to swim without an suit I adored that<br/>experience and desired to do it again.<br/>After that I went back to blacks<br/>several more times. I also went to other fkk<br/>Seashores; San Onfre, (45 minute north of blacks), and<br/>More Mesa in Santa Barbra. San Onfre is fine, its<br/>more secluded than blacks with less gawkers. I went<br/>to college in Santa Barbra and I detected More<br/>Mesa. This is a wonderful plage! Verry private and<br/>secluded. I went to UCSB in Santa Barbra and saw<br/>Signals for models needed for art class. I signed up<br/>and posed naked for the art class. It was no big deal<br/>for me and it was entertaining. It was fantastic to see how each<br/>artist painted me in their own way. My mother found<br/>the check from the art school and asked me about it<br/>in front of the family. I told her the truth, they<br/>all just laughed and gave me a hard time about it but<br/>were not offended or angry or anything so it was cool.<br/>Since that time, I 've been to<br/>two naturist resorts in CA. I had a really pleasant time in<br/>both resorts. The people there were very friendly and<br/>made me feel welcome there. It was very relaxing and<br/>Enjoyable to spend the day naked swimming, eating, sunning,<br/>meeting fresh people etc. Most of the people were older<br/>(30's-60;s) but I enjoyed myself anyway. Its cool<br/>However to see all the young people involved with<br/>nudism in this group.<br/>Today I go naked in my room<br/>Virtually consistently. In addition , I go bare at the local nudist<br/>Plage (Haulover). This is my favorite fkk beach.<br/>Its very easy to get to, there are individuals of all<br/>ages, and they sell drinks and hot dogs on the strand<br/>Plus the water is always warm (87 now) and so is the<br/>weather.

I am 26 years old and currently living in<br/>Aventura, Florida. I have been going bare since I was<br/>17 or so. Besides nudism I also love playing pool,<br/>listening to all kinds of music (except country and<br/>http://picsnudism.com/topic/tpc-beach-sexy.php ), working with computers, and discussing<br/>about autos. Now I Will get into how I got started as a<br/>nudist.<br/>I was 17 when I first became<br/>Inquisitive about how it felt like to be naked in my<br/>room. I do not know<br/>exactly why but I believed I 'd be more comfy<br/>if I took off my panties, so I did. It felt odd<br/>at first, for some time I was self conscience of my<br/>body. Not because anything was wrong, only because I<br/>had never been nude in my room before I figure. I got<br/>over the awkwardness (self consciousness) and it felt<br/>nice.<br/>When I was 18 a senior in high<br/>school I was on the cross country team. We ran about<br/>a mile or so from a nude beach (Blacks).

Nude Body Painting - Body painting is among our favorite things to do while naked, both at our indoor Naked Night Outs and at outside parties. It is a playful combination of artwork, imagination and nudity and all you will need is a brush (or your fingers) and some paint.<br/>But some truly require it the next level as a real art form, the body functioning as the sailcloth and turning into a living, breathing work of art. This is what NYC artist Andy Golub does. In public. And in the most congested roads of The Big Apple! Andy has gotten a ton of press and caused quite a stir since his reside nude body painting began in Times Square and took place in over 20 other public spaces. I got the opportunity to interview him about his artwork and experiences with the people and law enforcement.<br/>Andy got his start painting objects, subsequently mannequins, subsequently transitioned to painting bodies. People have the additional added aspect of character and I always incorporate their style into the painting too, he said. Then he started painting live in public so people could view the process. But his live work with topfree and completely naked models didn't just blend into the crowd in Times Square. http://nudests.net/tube/beach/ did it, he was kicked out.<br/>Andy Golub's art, courtesy of andygolub.com<br/>Coming from a naturist's point of view, I was most interested in learning about the facet of public artwork and nudity. How can the city and law enforcement react when they see live artwork with a lot of skin? (Yeah I've been down this road before.) How can Andy see nudity as an artist and in general?<br/>Public nudity is actually legal in NYC when it's part of a play, performance, display or show. (Of course the question must arise, what constitutes a show?) Nevertheless, when one of Andy's models removed her g string rendering her fully naked in Times Square, officers were ready with their handcuffs. Andy himself has been arrested once, along with a few of his models for public lewdness. Charges were dropped, but a compromise remains: he is abiding by a rule to paint entirely unclothed models just after sunlight goes down. NYPD has been notified of this, and Andy does not expect additional trouble from them when he resumes his work outside.<br/>As expected, there are individuals who think what Andy does is flat out wrong, and though Andy honors their sense of morality, he also says many of them are not able to see nudity without seeing sexuality. I don't believe what I am doing is inappropriate, in fact I would even say what I'm doing is just the opposite because it's allowing individuals to see nudity in a nonsexual manner. (Sound familiar?) He says folks who do comprehend his work, see that it's entirely nonsexual. It all comes down to shame, he says, and trouble ensues when naked or semi-naked people do not feel others' sense of shame. All too accurate.<br/>I remarked that it's amusing you can barely tell the models are naked at all when fully painted. Andy answered the controversy is not over what people see, but what they don't seea strap or line. Merely knowing the model is bare is enough to create a buzz. Obviously the issue of children seeing http://nudenudist.com/tube/nudism/family-nude-pic.php has come up as well. He says, the entire concept that children must be shielded from it entails that it's sexual in nature, that it is a peep show. And I'm not doing a peep show, I'm doing art.<br/>Nude Body Art By Andy Golub<br/>I'd like to just share this last quotation in which he describes his artwork:<br/>It is a way for [the models] to take themselves for who they are in their strengths and weaknesses and being comfortable in sharing that with other people, which is challenging. Most or all of the people that get painted have somewhat of a liberating experienceMe and the model join with each other and we do it in full public view so people can link with us. In a lot of people's lives there is a particular disconnect that's caused by technology and the manner we communicateUltimately I consider my art is about human connection.<br/>http://damateur.net/youporn/nudism/nudism-boys.php ! It's possible for you to see more of Andy's art and press coverage on his site at andygolub.com<br/>What do you guys think of his work? What can you think of the town's answer to it?

Guest blog by: Nomadic Naturist<br/>A little while back, my wife J and I got to spend a while in Zipolite on the Pacific coast of Mexico. Zipolite is among the few beaches in Mexico that bears naturists. The beach is dotted with pubs, restaurants, hotels, fishermen, expat North Americans, expat Italians and happy Mexicans giggling at our lack of shame.<br/>Days in Zipolite quickly slipped into a meandering rhythm of skinny dipping, drinking and laughing. I spent my mornings running on the strand followed by skinny dipping and naked sunbathing. J and I rented a bungalow on the hill overlooking the unclothed Mexiac plage.<br/>Zipolite Mexican Nudist Naked Beach<br/>We had a hammock, a bed, an outdoor kitchen area rather than much more, not even a door. It was perfect.<br/>I spent my time at the bungalow nude, loving the sea breeze. J ordinarily wore a sarong. There's loads to eat along the sand and in town where we found Mexican and Italian food.<br/>Zipolite Bare Naturist Mexican Strand Resort<br/>Here are some selections from my journal written during our week in Zipolite:<br/>11/13/12<br/>Monday afternoon was spent with J in the hammock. Afterward we walked the period of Zipolite. We caught a sunset from the Eastern end where we drank Cornonas and watched silhouetted fishermen complete their day's work perched on the giant boulders that protrude in the surf.<br/>Dinner at a beachside restaurant and then back to the bungalow for some reading. J tried to see TV on the laptop but it did not work out. I am not sure I am miserable about that.<br/>Tuesday, today. I woke up at 6:30 and went to the plage for a skinny dip. I'm not certain the naturist thing is going to work out well here. Very few folks appear to be doing it. I have seen maybe less when compared to a dozen nudies, all guys, and one topless woman. We'll see what the heat of the day brings. Right now I am happily roasting in the early morning Mexican sunlight.<br/>11/14/12<br/>Two year anniversary. Married to the most wonderful person anyone has ever met.<br/>J took her top off yesterday! I didn't always anticipate that to occur while we were here. There were boys around the second time she went topfree and she said, I 've to get over myself, as she lost her sarong.<br/>Topfree / Topless Girl at Zipolite Mexican Naked Beach<br/>Had yet another amazing breakfast with J yesterday morning. Eggs with salsa and green juice. Then it was off to Puerto Angel for the one local ATM so that we'd have cash. Naturally, the ATM was busted. 15 miles, a trip to San Pedro Pechutla and $200 Pesos later, we had cash.<br/>Our taxi driver kept bugging us to have him drive us to the airport by the end of our trip. Home is a long ways away, we'll see.<br/>(After) I could get used to this. Had http://nudismpictures.net/tube/nudist/ , leisurely two mile run and then a skinny dip. I could readily run 21 miles a week and still have so much time for myself. At this time, everything else is icing on the cake for my day. Breakfast, drinking, dinner will all be outstanding. What else will I do? Read? Swim more? All I want is all around me.<br/>11/15/12<br/><br/>Up before sunlight today. Roosters everywhere. Had yet another wonderful day with J yesterday. She continues to go topfree despite gawkers. I think it's second nature at this time, and I assume she will wear the sarong with no bikini top and that may be that.<br/>Spent the day on the beach. We made plans to check out Shambala, but rather we placed in the hammock. Then it was back to the sand for sunset. We got rather drunk at a pub run by a Chicagoan named Kevin. So intoxicated that we did not have as much cash as we would have enjoyed for dinner and spent every last cent on a bottle of wine and two platters. We walked back on the sand, me nude and then J fell into bed while I pretended to stay up but fell into the hammock. I anticipated to be hungover today but I appear to be good.<br/>11/16/12<br/>Roosters woke me again this morning. I'm loving waking up with the sun but I wonder if it'd change if I lived here.<br/>Yesterday, J awoke with a hangover and we took a boat tour. We saw the Indio and the Mono (Indian and Monkey) rock formations. I recall seeing them the last time we were here, for our wedding. Next we saw some porpoises. Then we quit for snorkeling. Next up one other passenger and myself scaled a stone formation and jumped off.<br/>Our guide did a backflip. Then J and another passenger determine to bound too. Afterward the guide did another flip. We stopped for lunch and cervezas. We got a ride back to Zipolite in a very stereotypical camion.<br/>Dinner at La Provencia. We had a bottle of Spanish wine. Appetizers were a bean pate and goat cheese with beets croquette. J had a mezcal cream sauce chicken and I had an eggplant dish with a provencal bean salad.<br/>11/17/12<br/>Had a breakfast of chilaquiles at a spot called A Fine Place on the Playa. We discussed our future: Children, opening a pub, moving from the town. We ran into The Norwegians, a couple from your tour on Thursday. We discussed with them for a little while.<br/>Then mother daughter nudist pictures was onto the ATM in Porto Angel, which was actually working yesterday. J re-met up with the Norwegians for yoga while I went swimming. We grabbed a bite of tlayudas de nopales on the road. Then we returned to our bungalow with our pals for Havana Club daiqueries. Lots more amazing dialog. It works out that Thomas is a chef and knows Eleven Madison Park, among other NYC restaurants, so he understood how well-known J is.<br/>11/24/12<br/>Opting for a Skinny Dip at Zipolite Nudist Nude Beach in Mexico<br/>The last complete day in Zipolite was amazing. I did the usual, wake up, run, skinny dip. J went for an hour or so and a half massage while I lay nude on the beach. The massage left her very content. Dinner was simple pizzas and micheladas on the main street.<br/>Monday morning in Zipolite, we woke up and lay in the hammock for a bit before leaving. It was a wonderful trip.<br/>11/28/12<br/>First full week in the northeast. I have sweat through my shirt, reek of deodorant and paid $7 for a "affordable" drink.<br/>This is civilized?<br/>If you see Zipolite, it's important to remember it is not Cancun. There aren't any ATM's in town. The nearest one is several miles away and it wasn't working on one of the days we went to get money. While the people are completely favorable toward North Americans, it helps if you can talk a good amount of Spanish. It is also important to notice that Zipolite is not a private or approved naked beach. Nudity is born by the locals, but not protected and very few people strip down and not many women go topfree. Everything comes down to how comfortable you are being nude among folks in cloths.<br/>It appears to me http://shockintown.com/post/family-nudity-young-girls.php is something to be laughed at in Mexico. The folks are unquestionably more prude than North Americans in terms of keeping themselves in fabrics, but they are not nearly as judgmental of nudies. They might point and laugh but, if you're confident enough to see the silliness in wearing clothing in the hot sunshine, you are able to laugh together, and everything will be fine. They didn't demand I cover up the way some New Yorkers may demand topfree girls cover up in Central Park.<br/>

Facebook Breastfeeding Pictures and Dilemmas Explained:<br/>Facebook Breastfeeding Pictures - Girls throughout the world find themselves fighting for liberation and equality once more, not just in public but online in social networking sites, especially Facebook. After nearly over a decade of struggling back and forth with Facebook regarding what's appropriate and what is offensive, Facebook finally opens up to the public saying that its policy allows moms to post their breastfeeding pictures only of infants actively nursing.<br/>They further admit they do their very best to go by this policy and there may be a time when errors are made only because the piece is flagged as improper.<br/>Facebook has clarified its policy as it pertains to photographs of breastfeeding: only photographs of infants actively nursing are enabled. Everything else is considered nudity and will be taken down if reported.<br/>Now how did this battle begin you may inquire? Well simply put, Facebook moderators deleted images of girls breastfeeding under their "no nudity" clause even while it is not illegal to breastfeed your child in public. Way too many women got fed up with their pictures being deleted or had their profiles suspended just because they revealed breast or partial nipple while nursing their babies without a covering.<br/>When push came to shove these mom's determined it was time to fight back through means of protest. A group formed on Facebook which ga there d close to 5,000 members "Hey Facebook, Breastfeeding is not obscene!".<br/>Last Monday worldwide events were organized by this group, that supported mother's to congregate with their children at Facebook headquarters. (View List of Places) This group also began a Facebook page that currently includes over 6300 likes.<br/>Melissa Ralph breastfeeding son Ashley<br/>An identical competition further falls off of the Face of the Book in a situation that happened at Target when a woman was harassed by 3 workers for feeding her kid in a discrete place of the store while covered. In demonstration of the occasion, girls across the nation staged a "nurse in" at http://xotad.com/tube/nudist/family-naturism-video-vk.php . View this ABC clip for more details:<br/>As a part of WIC (Women Infant Children), I Have learned the significance of breastfeeding my child to ensure that he fulfills all the nutritional needs that formula may not provide. Why? Because it's natural! Breastfeeding is a vital asset to human survival and has long been way before the days of convention.<br/>So how could we've come this way to shun the nude body and not take the human culture within? For starters it is the degradation of the female anatomy where man places a label on the female breasts maintaining them as sexual organs for lust instead of reproductive organs for human development. An appealing question appears: sex and reproductionthose are exactly http://kazyz.com/tube/nudist/tiny-nudist.php , right? Not totally.<br/>The female breasts are merely considered reproductive organs during the parenting phase of reproduction; however, generally in most classifications breasts are not considered to be part of the female reproductive system. To begin with, my guy does not consider my lactating breasts hot so it difficult for me to understand why they'd be censored as porn unless specific guys are fearful they can be going to find themselves having an adult baby fetish. Breastfeeding is beautiful and valuable, not entirely hot.<br/>Dont shy from breastfeeding<br/>While seeing WIC's Long Beach facility, I discovered a poster in their toilet saying "Embarrassment? Do not shy away from breastfeeding". WIC could not have put this poster in an improved location as though it was there to tell girls who were hiding themselves away while "nature took its course". This phrase must not be mistaken to reference excretion of bodily wastes which is what one does in a toilet, but rather the feeding of vital physiological nutrients to a young child. Breast milk provides antibodies against pathogens and continues to be associated with decreased morbidity and mortality from gastrointestinal, respiratory and other diseases.<br/>Would you see the irony in breastfeeding a kid in a restroom? How many of you'd eat your meal on the loo?<br/>Even while breastfeeding is supported by physicians, pediatricians, the State Department of Health and other public nourishment affiliations it really is hard to comprehend why girls would even feel embarrassed about feeding their children in any public setting and/or wouldn't be capable of share with other girls this important part of life on Facebook. Additionally it is a greater wonder why society in general would cause this kind of ruckus at the sight of child attaching its lips to the breasts of its mom.<br/>In accordance with a report on ABC "Health experts concur that "breast is best" for growing babies : About 75 percent of new moms in the U.S. begin breastfeeding their newborns, but just about 13 percent continue to breastfeed after the baby is six months old, according to the CDC.<br/>Once I think about these figures, I try and think to myself why these women would squander this treasured supply of nutrients and substitute for something of lesser nutritional, abnormal quality. It is possible that most women discover that it's incredibly time consuming and stressful to must pump her breasts merely to feed her baby while on the go.<br/>Others may be too embarrassed to get it done around friends, strangers and even their own families. Sometimes, maybe even most, women fear their men may find them less attractive and thereby let their milk to dry out and revert to formula for their kid. Every one of these explanations are self-centered, just as all those individuals who make it challenging for women to breastfeed are self-centered through an opinion or other form of action.<br/>Melissa breastfeeding son at the Getty Museum underneath a medieval painting of a girls breastfeeding her child.<br/>I'm proud to say that I somewhat participated in this Target bf comprehension just last weekend when I found myself feeding my 3 1/2 month old kid in a local store, not really for the means of protest, but out of respect for the demand to feed. Other areas I fed my son without concealing the matter were in Babies R' Us, Toys R' Us, Getty's Museum at the Getty Center, The Observatory at Griffith Park, Venice Beach. Santa Monica Pier, San Onofre State Beach, Glen Eden Nudist Resort, Olive Dell Family Naturist Resort, Deer Park Nudist Resort, and all other societal family and camaraderie meet-ups including an official dinner at a Korean restaurant.<br/>Basically, I feed him anywhere and everywhere I go instinctively. Every time he wakes up he needs to feed and every time I eat he wants to eat. The content look of love in my kid's eyes is much more important compared to the head shake of disapproval from others who can not accept the way God made us.<br/>I suppose it'd make life easier on all of us women if guys looked at the female breasts as less of a tool and more as an advantage for the better well-being of our kids. The only method this way of thinking could become the standard would be if girls could actually go topfree just as men do. Then again that is a whole entire conflict by itself.<br/><br/>Thank you to all the mothers who are around under the limelight to bring positive recognition to make the better changes for our sons and daughters!! Go Moms!!<br/>
