For a very long time,
naturism was not something people talked
about. It was a dark part of society, a
secret club, of which many had heard
about but few really knew what was
really going on behind those high fences
of the naturist club. These kinds of
places are an excellent food for rumors.
It’s human behavior, if we don’t know
the very truth about something, our
imagination starts playing tricks on us.
Add to that the secret ingredient of
nudity and the imaginary stories become
much more interesting than the truth.
This taboo and the myths
linked to it are partly caused by the
naturists themselves. Just by acting so
secretly about our lifestyle, we give
others all the reasons to think that
we’re doing something wrong. Something
shameful. Something we’re definitely not
proud of. Quite ironic, in a way.
Because in the world we live in today,
the respect, equality, peacefulness, and
serenity within naturism are actually
things we should be very proud of.
One of the reasons why we
started Naked Wanderings, was to show
the world what naturism is really about.
To break down the fences and open the
curtains. Yes, we are naturists. Have a
good look at what we do and tell us how
conform that is with what you believed
before. On the internet, more and more
naturists decide to do the same. They
become the true face of naturism and
help to break down the myths.
If you’ve never tried
naturism before, but you’re curious
about what it really is, let’s start by
explaining why some of the most common
myths are totally wrong.
You might end up at a sex club
In the clothed world, we
only undress for two reasons: To shower
and to have sex. Since it’s quite hard
to believe that people would drive for
hours to end up in some secluded space
just to get a bath, it’s not hard to
understand why the myth focuses on that
other part: We do so to have sex. As
there are many other people involved, it
must be the kind of sex that you won’t
find in the average bedroom.
It was one of the ideas
that shot through our heads as well when
we were about to experience our
first social
nude experience. “What if we
end up at a sex party?”. How incredibly
awkward would that be? How stupid would
we look when we have to explain that
this was not what we expected? As in
“Dude, you came to a place where people
get naked together… what DID you
expect?”.
Of course, that didn’t
happen. Instead, there were very clear
rules against sex in public areas and
against scouting for possible
sex-partners. It’s one of the
foundations of naturism: non-sexual
social nudity.
