1 What is Naturism?
Nudism (aka naturism) is probably as old as the beginning of time. But the term "naturism" was first named in 1778 described as "a natural style of life and health" by the French. The first nudist resort was opened in 1903, in Germany, followed by a nudist movement there throughout the 1920's, until it was supressed by the Nazi regime. The naturist movement spread throughout Europe and reached America in the 1930's under the leadership of Ilsley Boone, a Christian minister. It has since become an organized movement throughout the world! To learn more go here.

2 What is a Naturist?
Nudists are people who enjoy being nude in appropriate settings. The motivation of a nudist should be pure and non-sexual. It is about simplicity, fun and true relaxation.

3 Who becomes a Naturist?
Anybody who wants to. The only requirement is that you pursue it for the right reasons. People of all ages, males, females, couples, even entire families enjoy the freedom that nudism gives them.

Q4 Aren't nudists just a bunch of old people?
Not necessarily. You may find that some resorts tend to attract older crowds, BUT that isn't the rule. Many places are family-oriented and have people of all ages including babies,kids, teens, young adults, parents and yes of course the wiser ones. And of course there is Vita Nuda, a young adult movement within the larger movement of nudism.

What if I get an erection?
Most males get erections these natural occurrences in most cases are periodic and predictable. Erections occur periodically during sleep and as the result of internal stimuli, they also occur naturally as the result of external stimuli meeting particular notions of sexuality. Since each male has different criteria for being aroused, it is difficult to assert that this erection was caused by that stimulus. This problem occurs far less frequently you might think. Nude recreation is just not that much of a sexual situation for most participants. As in any social setting, the Golden Rule applies. If you get an erection at a nude beach or other social nude setting, you and the group you are with are the best judges as to whether or not it is appropriate. Naturists generally yield a bit of elbow room to avoid making you feel uncomfortable; you should use your judgement to avoid making them feel uncomfortable. If necessary, take a swim or roll over for a short while. In any case, just use common sense and be considerate.

What if I'm Menstruating?
Again, this is a natural occurrence, and it is one of the realities of the body with which women have to deal. If a woman is comfortable with one, a tampon is the simplest method of dealing with that time of month. If an external conveyance is preferred, then she would wear shorts or bikini bottoms. For the most part, a woman should use what she feels is less obtrusive for her personally; others aren't going to notice or object.

What if I meet someone from school of work?
Remember they are there too, just as naked as you are. Be happy to discover that person shares something in common with you.

How do I act when talking to others?
It is often difficult for new people to know where to look. To a naturist, there is no difference between being dressed or nude. Try to act as you normally would. It is OK to look. Out of curiosity you may initially look longer at others' genitals and breasts. Just don't stare. In time, you'll be less curious about these areas and concentrate again on the face and eyes.
