You are defining *sexuality* as automatically being immoral and
undesirable, in and of itself, without justifying that position. As a
matter of fact, it's a position which CAN'T be justified, since all
such arguments eventually ultimately rely on a diety which you can not
only not PROVE has claimed sexuality is immoral, but which you cannot
even prove EXISTS at all.
Absent that, you cannot make a plausible claim that sexuality is
undesirable or immoral. FORCED sexuality, such as rape, is immoral. But
if a person cannot be trusted to experience sexual feelings without
resorting to rape while nude, I would say that same person can't be
trusted to experience sexual feelings without resorting to rape while
clothed. In fact, that person can't be trusted, period. Their state of
dress or undress is irrelevent to their inherent moral corruption and
lack of self control.
I also note that you still have not learned to use punctuation in the
proper manner. I would suggest that you would do well to spend less
time worrying about what the nudists do, and more time working on
improving your literacy skills.

The fact that you fail to utilize this simple solution, frankly,
indicates to me, that it is YOU who are unhealthily obsessed with sex,
and are driven to seek out any activity by others which might be
remotely sexual in nature, so that you can project your own neuroses
onto them, and punish them for supposedly having the same 'moral
failings' that you, yourself, are guilty of.
This is the same profile displayed by a lot of serial killers, btw,
such as Jeffrey Dahmer. Do try to get help dealing with your
conflicting feelings about sexuality soon, before you end up like him.
I suspect that there is a sexual aspect to just about every human
activity, because humans are sexual creatures. And so I would have to
say that there's a sexual aspect to social nudism as well. But I have
never seen any evidence that the sexual aspect to social nudism is more
powerful, more overwhelming, or more "dangerous" than the sexual aspect
of walking down the street. (Some kids get grabbed by pedophiles while
walking down the street! Zee, get on the case!) Possibly less so.
But nudity is such a sensitive thing that if there is a sexual element
it ruins the environment needed for nudism to work. If like you said
there is a sexual aspect to just about every human activity then that
really is a good reason why men and women should wear clothes in social
situations.
Nudists need to be able to look beyond the physical. If they think like
the textiles then it just won't work.
The definition of nudism is that the nudity must be nonsexual. If the
nudity becomes sexual it stops being nudism and becomes something else.
Now of course the question is can nudity be ever practiced among groups
without sexual connotations. If it can't then nudism is a myth.
Nudity has a sexual element to it. Now I believe that nudity can be
practiced carefully eliminating this sexual element but everyone
involved would have to be like minded about this and always mindful
that only through conscious effort will "textile" thoughts and feelings
about nudity be avoided.

Zee and Anna are both guilty of the same moral error, namely presuming
that sexuality is inherently immoral.

If a 'sexual element' ruins the 'environment' needed for something to
work, then you better go lock yourself up in the basement, because
human beings are the most sexualized creatures on the planet, and
therefore the 'environment' of everything they do, nude or non-nude, is
going to be quite thoroughtly 'ruined' by your standards.
Given that the environment of most activities does not seem to be
'ruined', obviously your premise that a 'sexual element' in and of
itself, can 'ruin' things, is mistaken.
If a particular human being lacks sufficient control over their
sexuality, that they will attempt to RAPE someone, because they are
nude, then that would most likely 'ruin the environment' of nudity.
However, it would ALSO 'ruin the environment' of any other activity.
And unless you propose that we all be padlocked into non-removable
metal clothes, if someone is lacking in control over their sexuality,
that person is going to be a serious problem, regardless of how they
and everyone around them happen to be dressed. Because most normal
clothes can be removed fairly easily.
If you claim that a person will lose control over themselves if others
around them are naked, but not if they are clothed, therefore we should
all be clothed, you are abrogating everyone else's freedom to cater to
a sociopath. The proper course of action is to restrict the freedom of
such sociopaths who cannot control themselves, not the freedom of
everyone else.

There are many, many animals that are more sexualized than humans.

But nudity is different. When the element of an sexualized environment
is in play most people would not want to expose themselves which makes
sense. If everything is a sexual environment obviously you wouldn't
want children involved. And if it is a sexualzied environment it really
would be inapproprate to be naked among mixed sexes. Clothes in a
sexualized situation provides a little bit of protection that does
separate us from other animals.
So being nude is different than any other activity. It is really close
to the line of what is a appropriate or not due to how it can be used
in a sexual content. Now if someone wants sexualized nudity - find go
to a swingers club as there are plenty of them out there, but many
people don't want the pressures and difficulties a nude sexualized
environment brings.
Every nudist organization and practically every owner of a nudist park
will tell you that nudism has nothing to do with sex.
Now are they deluding themselves? Well that is what we are discussing.
> Now are they deluding themselves? Well that is what we are discussing.
That's what YOU'RE discussing. Maybe you should do some research. Why not
actually TRY naturism and then get back to us.
Frankly I cannot see how one can produce rankings for sexualisation. What on
earth it is supposed to mean to say that humans either are, or are not, the
most "sexualised" creatures?

And yet they are. Would you believe many children are actually brought up by
a co-habiting pair of sexually active adults? Can you think of a more
sexualised environment than that? I know it's hard to believe but there it
is.

That's why no one respects you, Jon.
You just don't understand, do you? To nudists, nudity is no more
"sensitive" than any other activity. The sexual aspect that may be
present in nudism does not "ruin the environment" any more than the
sexual aspect that may be present in a church or a foodstore.
> If like you said

Clothes can be arousing just like nudity can be. This is especially
true for people who are accustomed to nudity. The sexual aspect that is
present in social nudism is, for the most part, minor, manageable, and
not something that ruins the social experience.
By your argument, men and women should all be wearing butquas during
all social interaction, so that there will never be a sexual element to
it. (But even that won't work.)
> Nudists need to be able to look beyond the physical. If they think like
> the textiles then it just won't work.
They think like textiles except that they don't find nudity unusual, or
lothing necessary. And most of the time it works just fine, thank you
very much.
Forget your prozac again Zee? First you claim you have never seen
anything even 'hinting of rape' at a nudist facility. Then you claim
that there are many cases of child molestation, which is a form of
rape. So to start off with, you are contradicting yourself. Which is
it? Is there rape/child molesting going on at nudist camps, or isn't
there? You can't have it both ways. If there is no rape (which would
include no child molesting), then anything else that might be going on,
is none of your concern. This includes the question of whether or not
people are 'sexually aroused' by being nude, or observing others in the
nude. We do not live in the world of 1984. There are no Thought Police.
What someone thinks or feels inside their own head, including being
sexually aroused, is none of your concern, until their thoughts
translate into rape. Grow up and deal with it.
And stop ranting about men having erections. That is not a process
which is completely under the control of the conscious mind. So long as
the man does not USE that erection to harm others, it is not your
business. If the nudist facility in question has a rule that a man
should conceal his erection until it goes down, that's their option. It
is their facility, and they can make any rule they want. If you are at
a facility which such a rule, and you see someone deliberately
violating it, then complain on that basis. Until then, get off your
self-righteous horse regarding other people not being able to
consciously control all of their bodily processes. Let me ask you
something, sweetcheeks: Can you raise your body temperature 5 degrees
Fahrenheit, just by thinking hard about it? Because there are people,
trained in biofeedback, who can. By your standards, would they be
justified in sneering at you, because your body temperature is going up
and down all the time, outside of your conscious control?
Oh, and I don't care if people 'spend a fortune' on naked pictures of
adults, either. The adults in the pictures consented to have their
picture taken. And the people who bought them spent their own money. If
you don't like naked pictures, then don't spend your own money on them,
and don't tell other people what to do with their money. It's really
very simple.
> There are many, many animals that are more sexualized than humans.
> Monkeys for example.
Umm, no. Not only do monkeys only mate when the female is in Estrus,
but the size of a human male's genitals is far larger, in relation to
the body, than any other ape or monkey.
The only 'monkey' that comes close to being as sexual as human beings
is the Bonobo, which is a special case, because in the Bonobo, sexual
acts, such ritual mountings (which are very brief and do not culminate
in orgasm), are no longer sex qua sex, but a replacement for violence
as a means of resolving disputes and questions of status.
As you have shown an ignorance of basic biology, the rest of what you
have said can be dismissed.
Zee, you are one sick fuck.
his fantasy is exactly that............

They're related. It's a family thing. In an incestuous sort of way.

People shouldn't go to nudist camps so they can get "turned on" and
then have sex.
People should go to nudist camps to experience non sexualized nudity.
...
>Frankly I cannot see how one can produce rankings for sexualisation. What on

>most "sexualised" creatures?
In this case, I am guessing that the word "sexualized" refers to being
endowed with the character of engaging in sexual activity. In most
sexual creatures, sexual activity is restricted to a short time when
the female can become pregnant. In humans, dolphins and few others,
sexual activity seems to provide some other function, and is engaged
in a large number of times when the female cannot get pregnant.
It is also interesting that the typical signs of pending ovulation are
hidden in the human female and that human females sleeping in close
proximity tend to synchronize their periods. This leads to the thesis
that there has been evolutionary selection favoring more fathers in a
group rather than one dominant male fathering most of the young.
I don't see how this makes humans more sexualized than other creatures
and could even mean humans are less sexualized in that competing for
females happens over years rather than in one battle to be top male.
It does indicate that human sexuality is significantly different than
sexuality in most other creatures.
...
>Being nude is not "an activity"
A point worth repeating over and over. Thanks. Allow me...
Being nude is not "an activity," it is a state of being. Getting
dressed is the activity. We are being forced to perform that activity
for religious reasons, i.e. a cultist, religious notion of modesty.

Actually, urine is sterile.

Can't think up an argument so resorts to name calling.
>while being too cowardly
You're the expert on being a coward, aren't you?
Perhaps in the case that it was being used here. I use the term to
denote activity done as a result of sexual urges. Kissing for example
can't technically be said to be a sexual act but no one would argue
that a guy kissing a girl is usually doing it out of a desire that
comes from his sexuality.
I use the word nonsexualized as a replacement for "family friendly".
While I like the term "family friendly" people might think that the
activity or the atmosphere MUST have families there whereas the way I
mean it is that the activity should be ok even if families were there
but families do not need to be there. Non-Sexualized seems to fit that
idea better.
Now can men and women ever be together in a nonsexualized matter? Well
that is the question that is at the heart of whether nudism is
appropriate or not.

No. First you change your name every few months, and now you want to
change the definitions of things, even though you aren't a nudist. Most
*normal* people understand what family friendly means. It means both
non-sexual and also a tolerance for children. My family goes to Family
Camp every summer. It is a church camp. Singles are welcome. People
who don't want to be around children may not want to come, although they
usually have "quiet" areas where children don't go.
> Now can men and women ever be together in a nonsexualized matter? Well
> that is the question that is at the heart of whether nudism is
> appropriate or not.
No. If you had ever tried it, you would know.
ObNude: Family Camp has only one group shower, so it is mixed gender.
Also, there are CO beaches outside of camp. Generally about half the
people at the CO beaches are from Family Camp. There is also a sweat
lodge in camp. People are generally nude. The church district had some
problems with this as far as teens. So, the camp group has
dissassociated itself from the district and formed a non-profit.
Ok, that is why I believe the term nonsexualized is better to describe
the atmosphere that there needs to be for nudism to exist.
Family friendly can mean what you said it means.
And then you have sexualized nudity like you find in swinger clubs.
That isn't nudism because part of the definition of nudism is that the
nudity has to be nonsexualized.

I have no intention of suppressing my sexual thoughts, even when I'm at
a nudist venue. The intention that I have is to keep always in mind
that women aren't just sexual objects, but are people like me, who have
thoughts, feelings, beliefs, memories, and loves just as I do. I intend
to treat women with appreciation and affection and respect at all
times, whether I'm at a nudist venue or not. And I intend also to
continue to enjoy the beauty with which God blesses many of them.
Best wishes,
Bert
Nudists and textiles are just alike, except that nudists like to be nude
in social situations. Nudists like sex just as much as textiles. What
bothers nudists is that some textiles think that social nudity is all
about sex, which it isn't. There's nothing about sex in social nudity.
When nudists have sex, they call it SEX, not social nudity.
Why don't you answer the rec.nuders questions about which nudist camps you
have been to?
Whenever someone asks you for proof of where you have been for your nudist
holidays you always go off-tangent with some self-righteous threads. Is
there something you are trying to keep from us?
Here are the nudist places that I have been to:
1) Pacific Sun Friends
2) Balkaz Retreat
3) Sunshine Families
4) SunLeisure
5) Alexandria Bay
6) Tyagarah Beach
Now, your turn to play. :-)
If you can't answer this thread in an honest, straightforward manner, then I
frankly think you are wasting your time (as well as everyone else's) in this
NG.

Am I a geek or what? For some reason I'm reminded of the Star Trek
episode "Mirror, Mirror".
See: http://www.startrek.com/startrek/view/series/TOS/episode/68738.html
In "Mirror, Mirror", Kirk and company are transported to an evil
universe where brutality is the norm. They are able to hide their true
identities because as civilized people they can adapt to the situation
as needed. However their brutal counterparts, trapped in a civilized
universe, are quickly unmasked and jailed when they can't behave as
civilized people.
Now, how could I possibly be reminded of this by the above quote? Well,
first I'm a geek. And second I've read rec.nude since the early 80s.
You see, there are nudists who can act in a civil manner regarding
social nudity. Then there are the textiles from the evil universe (you
can tell them from the rest of us because the have a beard) who can't
act in a civil manner when confronted with social nudity and see it as
nothing but one wild orgy after another.
I have the feeling that some of the evil universe textiles have been
"transported" to our galaxy and are trying to take over the nudesgroup.
They're not interested in getting back to their own world. They want to
change ours into theirs. They won't even give our universe a try. They
know it's "bad" because they *know* that "nudity == sex", no matter what
we say to the contrary.
They post about what nudist is all about, even if they've never
experienced it. They post things that we just can't believe and we
wonder what planet they come from.
But you see it's not a planet. It's the EVIL UNIVERSE!
All of the civilized nudists are shocked at this and we want to throw
them into the brig. (Oh where is Mr. Spok when you need him? If only
he could mind meld with these people and convince them that we aren't

So you see life really does imitate art. If you call Star Trek art,
that is.

I think I said more or less the same thing in September:

I don't know what the fascination with naturism might be. If it's a
genuine interest, why not just try it? If it's about something else, such
as an axe to grind, then "she's" doing a lousy job of it.

Nice post, Bert. It's true that not all men and women have beauty; I
am thinking of some shallow and self-centered celebrities that are
held up as sex objects, for example. Fortunately for me, all the women
I interact with in my family and at work overflow with beauty, and
many of the men also, and their beauty often runs incredibly deep. I
suspect if I knew you, you'd be among them.
