Naked generosity: Giving the shirt off your back

Planet Nude ·

2024/09/06

In a world divided by ideology and economic inequality, simple acts of kindness often go unnoticed, but that's the essence of true altruism—it’s about making an impact, not seeking recognition. As advocates of body freedom, we embrace minimalism, shedding the unnecessary in both fabric and pretense. This simplicity helps us see the needs of others clearly. If you’ve ever seen (or been) a nudist reaching to put on a shirt because they’re cold, you may start to understand how essential these items are

The rugged beauty of the Lower Colorado River Valley, where the borders of California, Nevada, and Arizona meet, offers a stark contrast to the neon lights and bustling casinos of nearby Las Vegas.

'Nudes in Limbo' and the naked aesthetic

Planet Nude ·

2024/08/02

Directed by Bruce Seth Green, Nudes in Limbo has no story, setting, or dialogue to speak of. The entire thing is 53 minutes of models, athletes, and dancers, nude or nearly nude, tastefully posing, exercising, dancing, or performing other physical feats, often in slow motion. It’s beautifully shot, lit, and edited in an artistic fashion: shots often feature light moving across the planes of the body, occasionally resembling abstract landscapes.Read the original article at www(dot)planetnude(dot)co

Sheikh Fouad Hobeiche was a pioneering figure in introducing nudism to the Middle East. In 1930, he began translating French nudist literature into Arabic and publishing it in Beirut. His newsletter, "al-Makshuf" (The Revealed), disseminated ideas of social nakedness, emphasizing honesty and body positivity. Hobeiche’s works were inspired by French writer Louis-Charles Royer and the global nudist movement. He faced controversy, especially for advocating nudism as a remedy for societal issues

Good naked, bad naked

I wonder if there is any naturist in North America who has not heard a reference to Seinfeld when the subject of nudity comes up with a non-nudist. It is up there with “don’t cook bacon naked” as one of the most cliche responses to nudism. It always bothered me, even before I was a nudist.Read the original article at www(dot)planetnude(dot)co This is a public episode.

Bear vs bare

Planet Nude ·

2024/06/25

Would you rather be stuck in a forest with a man or a bear? Overwhelmingly, women have chosen the bear in this thought experiment across social media. It’s not a setup to say men are bad, but given that there’s no way to know who’s dangerous until it’s too late, women have to play the odds and assume all men are dangerous based on either personal experience or what has become normalized in society.
