Great post.
I like this one too:
Mary S. Calderone, M.D., in "The Family Book About Sexuality," states:
" ... with very young children accustomed from the beginning to nudity in
themselves and their parents, a great deal is taken for granted, and it
doesn't seem to be much of an issue to them. What nudity does is make it
easy for children to become absolutely certain about just how men and
women are made. This knowledge is of great importance in assuring the
child of his or her own correct gender. The differences in body states
and sizes - and in body organs - can then be taken for granted and will
provide an accurate image of how they themselves, or the opposite sex,
will look when grown up. Children whose parents feel at ease in such
natural events as stepping out of the shower, toweling, and walking back
to their room to dress are fortunate."
I haven't seen the full text, but from the above I'm not sure the full
text is as positive as this excerpt makes it sound.
> " ... with very young children accustomed from the beginning to

What's she say about children who are NOT accustomed from the
*beginning* to nudity in themselves and their parents?
What's she say about older children?
> Children whose parents feel at ease in such
> natural events as stepping out of the shower, toweling, and walking

The implication here seems to be that most parents aren't at ease.
What's her advice to them?

That's a great gift. I don't know any of the rest of what she said; the CCBN

The Survey is "Credible" to those who believe and trust in the findings
of the Survey, but if somebody like you are against the findings than
you will of course decide that the Survey is not "Credible".

If I am understanding your posting you mention "Signage" for Nudist
Resorts?
I know of a minimum of 15 Nudist Resorts in my area which have
prominent, Well-Maintained Freeway signs and these Resorts have very
excellent Relations with the local Law Enforcement and Communities in
their area.

I will first address "Where the Happy Educated" ones are.
Obviously they are not at nay resort that you go to, if you have ever
gone to one.
I have many friends and acquaintances in the Nudist Community who have
children or grew up as Nudists who appear very Happy and Well Educated,
many with Advanced Degrees and High Professional standing, including a
few Ministers.
Than your Allegation of "all the child sex that is
not reported in nudist camps".
If it is not reported than how do you know that there is "Child Sex"?
Is this some "Sixth Sense" that you have, which tells you that these
things are happening?
Maybe, just possibly there are incidents like this happening, but I
have never seen nor heard of them occurring at any Venue that I have
gone to and I have visited quite a few in my travels.
As far as your immature attempts at insulting people by calling them
"Perverts" and making references to "Flaky character".
With your fragmentative posting style and insulting manner I think I
come off looking pretty Damn good.

It's a symptom of worse problems.
A person trying to convince us all (who didn't already know) how little they

This shows you don't know what you're talking about. Several surveys have
been done and books have been written. One of the best and most well know is
"Growing Up Without Shame" by Dennis Craig Smith whose survey lasted more
than ten years of the lives of nudist children and is scientifically
accurate.

Add us to that list; we have half a dozen signs in town and all the
businesses have our brochures right at the cash registers.

But, as of last week, no signs on the freeway. Most of the other
businesses have signs on I-10, but yours does not.
I've always been curious about that. How come?

Bill, when it comes to partial quotes, finding potential hanky-panky is
easy.
I said,

There are words in the partial quote that indicate
comparisons/distinctions have been omitted by the partial quoter.
Those words are "very young" and "from the beginning."
If the author was not making the distinctions I asked about, she (Ms
Calderone) would have left the words out. She would simply have
written,
" ... with children accustomed to nudity in themselves and their
parents, ..."
There's another reason to be suspicious. It's a short quote. If a
longer quote would have been as positive as the short one, I'd expect
the partial quoter to have quoted more.
I bring all this up for a simple reason. By not having read the longer
text, you may be setting yourself up for a devastating response. You
may use that partial quote some day in the presence of an anti-nudist
who *has* read the entire passage -- and who then quotes it in full to
show 1) that Ms Calderone has quite different views about nudity than
the partial quote seems to indicate, and 2) that you tried to bamboozle
the audience by cheating. Then, no matter what other points you may
have made, you (and nudism) lose the debate.
I'd be very interested to learn what Mary Calderone's full views are.

That's something we looked into right away, even before we opened and
learned that in this state, the municipal signs on the freeway can be only
for food, fuel, camping and lodging. For lodging, a minimum of 8 rooms are
required while we have 4 and for camping, a minimum of 20 spaces hookup
spaces are required and we don't have any, just a few with electric, though
we have a dump station and water fill at no extra charge to paying guests.
Further, last time we checked, one sign without even a name on it, just the
category (food, fuel, camping, lodging) costs $250 a month; to have one with
a specific name, such as Tonopah Joe's does, is at least double that. Now we
could buy a billboard from several private companies closer to town, but at
$500 per month with a minimum of two year commitment, we opted not to do
that.

So would I. Now that you mention it, her wording does seem to be creating
some sort of exception to the partial quote.

Then why doesn't your daughter feel fortunate, Bill. She won't even
talk to you for raising her the way you did. Shame on you for putting
her through what you did.
You need to keep your mouth shut when it comes to children. You
couldn't even raise your own daughter correctly. Though she turned out
to be one smart lady, saying good riddance to the likes of you.
Well cross-dresser.........we know that YOU love little boys, little girls
(and probably sheep).....Johnz (or Molly) are you related to Michael
Jackson????
Don't insult Michael!
Actually "jonZee" the reason that you prefer to think of me as a
"little boy" is because than you can feel "superior" by age at least (I
assume) and thereby more experienced, I suppose that this belief is
preferred to thinking that I may possibly be a Grandfather with a
Family of 5 grown children with Nudist Families of their own.

The Surveys have been done and the results Documented, as I stated
before you have already decided that the Surveys are not credible so I
don't expect you to believe the findings.
As to my trusting and believing in the results of these Surveys, my
many years of experience with traveling to many Countries has shown me
the same facts that these Surveys Corroborate what I already knew.

"Nikki Craft" is just another "Anti-Nudist" who is gathering
information to a Site in an effort to prove that all Nudists are
"Perverts" and that we are corrupting the Children, I believe they
thought the same of Socrates.
I have no doubt that somewhere there are actually places where the
Crimes "She" sites do occur, but I believe you will find that they are
the exception rather than the Rule.
You could always search "Naked City Los Angeles" and "Dick Droste", I
recall he ran a "Sex Club" and called it a "Nudist Club", I believe
that we got him shut down for Child Porn Violations.
I think that you will find that the majority of "Police Records"
mentioned are only Hearsay and have no validity in reality.

First of all Pete, we've had this discussion MANY times.....Deja Vu, yes I
stayed there--because it was clothing optional, PERIOD. End of Story. I will
opt for a clothing optional or nude venue in ANY of my travels where that
choice is available.
Secondly Pete, I've NOT talked down the grand barn in a long, long time. You
want to run an adult place where open sex is permissible, that is your
business--there is a market for it and more power to you and those who go to
your place--you are honest in what it is JUST AS OTHERS are HONEST with what
family nudist resorts present. Simmons is NOT one of those who is honest
with that--he sees things that none of us EVER have seen....and he makes it
sound like he's seen this crap EVERY damned time he's been to a family
nudist venue. He is a goddamned liar, I know it and you know it!

Dan took down his exploitive site, apologized for it, and has tried to write
about nudist experiences....at least he's making an effort at honesty which
is something simmons has NEVER done.

Inane is a perception Pete......and simmons is perceived as inane by 90% of
the people that post here (not counting the ones who've killfiled him).

And we've discussed THIS BEFORE as well pete....I was NOT HERE when this
'ON~Anon' posted here, and I really haven't cared enough to search out shit
that happened before I got here......John's "striking comments" are made up
stories, nothing more and nothing less--and you know that as well.

I have great respect for Cheef myself.....he's contributed MUCH to family
nudism, as has Dennis Kirkpatrick. You'd do well to develop the respect in
"your community" that they have in the nudist community.
> You're not going to tell us all that Terry is also hallucinating..;-)
simmons is the only hallicinator here pete......

ROFLMAO.........your buddy simmons is the perpetuator of most "Children
topics" as you call it....he and the couple of other trolls and pretenders
that come in here share 95% of the responsibility for children's topics,
erections, smoothies, etc..
"Fully functional adult-minded" people come with different interests,
different beliefs and different approaches. Too bad people like mr. simmons
can't draw that distinction.
Finally pete, do me and others a big favor, PLEASE:
Learn to use the space bar a time or two before you start a reply to
posts....it is so much easier to read your posts when one doesn't have to
search for its beginning as it is run on with the previous post....AND,
learn to write in paragraphs and/or to use that magic space bar between
paragraphs--PLEASE. (Your posts seem to have a great resemblance to johnz's
posts, and while they are somewhat more coherent they aren't any more
cohesive.) Every great once in awhile you, unlike your buddy simmons, have
something worthwhile to say. It would be nice to find it without having to
experience eye strain or having to refer pack to previous posts to see where
THEY end and your "dialogue" begins. Thank you pete.

There are many "happiness and prosperous lives" and we have given
you multiple links to sites referencing them, but you don't want to
believe that they exist or that they are a lie, just as you refuse to
believe all of the book references we've supplied, personal
anecdotes, Official websites documenting the findings of Reputable
Researchers.
It's much easier to call all these things "Lies and Innuendo"

I didn't say that the Police are biased that was your statement, I
said that people are biased, I believe in fact that I said that
"Nikki Craft" was biased against Nudists.
In fact most ( 90% +/-) Police Officers are not "Biased" one way or
the other towards Nudism, point is that I know a few people in Law
Enforcement who are Nudists, some very high up in Law Enforcement.
The main thing I can surmise from your postings is that you are for
some reason (probably either past Abuse, Religious Indoctrination or
upbringing) very "Anti-Nudist" and therefore you are more focused
upon any negative information that you acquire and prefer to believe
that anything to the contrary is a lie made up by "Perverts who wish
to continue and spread their illegal activities while lending a façade
of legitimacy to their behavior".
If it is something resulting from some past Abuse I hope that you can
eventually either get some Therapy or in some fashion recover from the
Abuse.
If it is from a "training" as you were growing up I hope that you
can grow beyond the lessons of your youth.
If it is "Religious" than I feel very sorry for you being with a
"Religion" that teaches people to be ashamed of the body that God
gave us.
The Pastor of my Church made it plain that while he may not be Nudist,
he sees no "Sin" in people enjoying Nudism as long as they "put
on clothes to come to Church".
Actually from what I've observed the "Sin" is in being Ashamed of
Gods Creation.
Quoting from Genesis, "They were nude but they were not ashamed."
Furthermore, because God created it, "The human body can remain nude
and uncovered and preserve its splendor and its beauty."

I am the one who started with the topic "Children and Nudism".
Raider Man Dan
I set it up because I have Heard and read many posts and messages from
people who seem to be insisting that children should not be allowed at
Nudist Venues, it seems that they believe that such places are only for
"Adults".
I strongly disagree with such narrow-mindedness, after all by
restricting children from the simple pleasure of being Nude and hiding
the Nudist experience from them you are teaching them that being Nude
is a "Secret Adult Thing" and in essence something Shameful and
"Dirty".
The fact is that young Children are Natural Nudists and it is Societal
"Training" which insists that they need to wear clothing to be
"Acceptable".
I have seem many, many Children who without hesitation will strip off
their clothes while playing and not show the least bit of
"embarrassment" or "shame" usually it is between the ages of 5 and 10
that they have been indoctrinated with modesty that they start being
embarrassed if seen Nude and this is because they have been taught by
either their Family or Society that to be Nude is "Bad" and "Shameful".
I know that some (jonZee) are certain that anyone involved with talking
of the topic of "Nudism" in conjunction with "Children" is obviously
involved in or has a prediliction towards Pedophilia or Child
Pornography, but I think anyone who looks at my postings with a mature
unprejudiced eye will see that I have not posted anything of the sort.
In fact I am very strong against activities of that kind and find it
offensive that someone would accuse me otherwise.
So unless someone can show a real problem I will keep this;
"Children and Nudism"
Raider Man Dan
" ... with very young children accustomed from the beginning to nudity
in themselves and their parents, a great deal is taken for granted, and
it doesn't seem to be much of an issue to them. What nudity does is
make it easy for children to become absolutely certain about just how
men and women are made. This knowledge is of great importance in
assuring the child of his or her own correct gender. The differences in
body states and sizes - and in body organs - can then be taken for
granted and will provide an accurate image of how they themselves, or
the opposite sex, will look when grown up. Children whose parents feel
at ease in such natural events as stepping out of the shower, toweling,
and walking back to their room to dress are fortunate." - Dr.

A Kid's view of Sunsport Gardens Festival
By Mary Beth Hietapelto, age 11
I'm Mary Beth Hietapelto, daughter of Cathy Hietapelto who manages the
Sun-sport Gardens restaurant. I'm going to tell you about what it's
like for an 11-year-old kid at a festival like Sunsport Gardens
Mid-Winter Naturist Gathering.
Friday was the day it all started. I got to Sunsport at 3p.m. just in
time for children's body painting. Tom Black Hawk Ca.ffrey and Katie
Hietapelto, the kid supervisors, painted anything anywhere. I got a
moon on my back done by Katie. Also on Friday I got to meet other vice
kids. That night we watched a movie and ate popcorn and played until it
got late.
I had a ton of fun under the blazing sun.
Saturday morning I woke early to eat breakfast at Alice's Restaurant.
(Com-pliments to Cathy, Jessica Lipinski, and Patty Martin) At 10:30
a.m. the other kids were awake, and it was time for messy gooey race.
This was fun with foam, soap, bubbles, and muddy sliding all around. At
1 p.m. we had pool games, swimming races, and more. We also did a mural
painting on the pool walls, and just
before that we had a clown show. To end Saturday was a campfire with
s'mores and a kid sing-along. We played Duck Duck Goose, too.
Sunday was leaf painting, and that was lots of fun for everybody. Me
and some of the other kids sold sunscreen and lem-onade. Thanks to the
lemonade kitchen staff, we raised $62 to help support the children's
area. At 11 a.m. Barbara Fries helped us finish the mural painting,
which is by the pool showers if you ever get a chance to see it. Mter
lunch we made mouth watering and very scrumptious banana splits. Four
o'clock was great, thanks to those who helped us prepare for the talent
show. At 7 p.m. we had fun family games with Morley Schioss.
On Monday I played hookie which means I skipped school. At 10 am. we
played exploring foods, and we guessed what foods we were feeling in
different bags. We made dream catchers with Wal-ter Two Eagle Smith. We
had field and pool games again, thanks to Mr. Tattoo guy. At 3 p.m. we
had a pudding toss. That's when you get to throw pudding at each other,
and that was my favorite thing I did. I smeared pudding all over
people. The talent show was at 8 p.m.
Every good story has a little bad, and my bad is that me and my sister
were so tired that we had to miss it. I would like to say thanks for
all the good times we had practicing "Puff the Magic Dragon" and other
great tunes.
I went to school on Thesday, and I missed the closing friendship
circle, but I had a ton of fun under the blazing sun.
So, I hope next year you will come to the Mid-Winter Naturist Festival
at Sunsport Gardens.
Spreading the Word
By Kameron Goodin, age 16
Last summer I attended the FANR Youth Leadership Academy at Sunsport
Gardens and found solace in not being an outsider.
It provided needed comfort and assurance as to why I was a
nudist and how my beliefs fit in.. Of all the activities I participated
in, the seminars were the most beneficial and enjoyable for me.
The topics were extremely pertinent to our everyday lives.
It was so encouraging to hear others talk about their experiences and
how they handled problems with non-nudist friends.
It reminded me of a family meeting; everyone had a right to speak and
to be heard.
I was able to get new ideas for how to deal with situations that
inevitably arise.
I found a peer group that affirms something important to me that I
can't truly share with my friends at school because even if they
are "tolerant" they still just don't get it.
Camp Can Be .... .Or At Least This One Can
By Jeanene Watters, age 16
Instead of the boring routine where parents send you off to camp for a
couple of weeks where you do not want to be, FANR Youth Camp provides
intellectual, thought-provoking workshops, mouthwatering meals,
everlasting friendships, and lots and lots of fun, not to mention the
memories that last a lifetime.
During the workshops, the academy discusses nudism and the counections
to it.
We share our thoughts and stories of how we can be nudists without
being criticized, how to be comfortable with ourselves and our peers
without embarrassment, and how nudism can fit in with our friendships
and our morals.... As we listen to each other, we bond, thus starting
new friendships.
We become comfortable with each other, and we forget about the
uneasiness there is between adolescent peers.
For one week a miniature family is formed.
What Nudism Means to Me
By Morgan Salomon,
Age 13
One more way I think of nudism is it is a peaceful and happy
lifestyle, where everyone can be comfortable and live in harmony with
each other and nature. In the textile world, you are always worrying
about what people think about you and what you look like.
In a nudist society everyone gets along, and no one judges you simply
because of your looks.
Therefore, not even one single person is ashamed of their body,
uncomfortable, or miserable.
Also since you are "au natural," you can exist as one with nature.
You can feel the warmth of the sun gently bathing your skin.
You can feel the cooling waters caressing your body in a never-ending
flow.
And you can also feel the unconditional love of every living breathing
creature around you, calling you back to your original way of life one
of peace, harmony, happiness and nudity.
What Nudism Means to Me
By William E. Williamson III,
Age 14
I live in Alabama, which is a good way from Virginia by car.
Back home I don't really have friends.
I lost most of them after my accident Here it's like no one cares
about my condition.
No one even notices (which is great).
I've made several friends here, even a "close friend."
I really try hard to be accepted everywhere I go, but it never seems
to work.
But here, it's different.
We wake up at 6:30 am to the sunrise and work with complete teamwork
until 11:00 p.m.
We are all friends here.
Everyone gets along.
Usually I'm a complete loner, but now I have friends.
It is very good to be in a place where people accept you.
I believe all of this is because of nudism.
It brings everyone together.
It takes everyone who feels left out and puts them in the crowd.
No one notices your differences.
Everyone accepts you for who you are all because you are nude.

I spoke today with a Social Worker who is assigned to a specialized sex
offender treatment unit, specifically asking about this issue. Of the
50 patients on his unit, none have ever used nudist venues as hunting
grounds for their victims. Nor have any of the other patients he has
treated in the past 2.5 years.
We have _extensive_ histories on these folks when they come to the
long-term units, and during the course of therapy we fill in the gaps
pretty thoroughly. While it is possible that some may not have revealed
having done so, it's pretty unlikely; these guys are pretty used to
being very open about their behavior.
What he did point out is that what is more important to a sexual
predator is to be in a position of perceived authority, where they can
convince a child to cooperate with the behavior. Teachers (both formal
and informal; informal meaning Sunday School and the like), ordained or
lay clergy, and Scoutmasters are popular kinds of activities. Becoming
a stepparent is also common.
Obviously, people do engage in the above activities for reasons other
than sexual predation. But given the patterns of manipulation
characteristic of the molester, these would be much more appealing than
a nudist venue. It's easier to hide their arousal until they are ready
to reveal it to the victim.
Admittedly, this is anecdotal data, but it's probably a reasonable basis
for a hypothesis: Sex offenders who offend against children utilize
nudist venues for the purposes of sexual predation significantly less
than they utilize non-nudist venues for the same purpose.
I wonder if there's a grant to study that. <g>
> Another fact to ponder: Almost all sex offenders are males.
Certainly the vast majority of those who are convicted. Some have
speculated that the rate of female offending is much higher than would
be suggested by the arrest/conviction rate. No data I'm aware of to
support this.

Which is not what the sexual predator wants. Their success is based on

Although there have been many posts, they are from a very few people.
Upon reading those posts, it is evident that most of these people have
never experienced social nudity first hand, and are posting from the point

It's true Peter. I only see his posts that others quote, but those are
serious fabrications that can only be intended to deceive and corrupt.
The lies are the only readable text in the quotes. He is not only
dishonest but intentionally so, a troll at work I'm sorry to say.

Me too, Mark. And what is that TLT nonsense, Peter? If you mean to be
derogatory, the joke is on you. Hey, I'd be happy to join such a TLT.
I'm a member of Cheef's website. I'd be proud to be associated with
Cheef any day, but there is no TLT as far as I can tell. :-)
Anyway, Peter, you know I wish you and yours to stay safe and well at
TGB, and I thank you for keeping TGB distinct from family nudism. It
is always a pleasure to read your posts as well as Mark's.
