is: "The practice of going naked socially: that is in mixed groups of both genders and all ages,
for the benefit of well-being and refreshment or other conditions that makes it suitable and
Enjoyable to do so; constantly supplied that those who are naked don't expose themselves to

Based on Webster's dictionary, the definition of nudism is as follows:
"The practice of going nude in the belief that such practice gains health." 3
Although this definition might seem obscure, nudists/Naturists maintain that nudism
does really enrich one's mental, physical, and spiritual wellbeing. Nudism is complete freedom to
express oneself without being judged on physical looks, kinds of clothing one
chooses to wear, or social class. Nudism/Naturism includes having respect for oneself,
others, and our environment.

that nudism/Nudism, is bad for kids. 4
While this thesis investigates Nudism in the United States, it is important to touch
briefly upon the differing views of nudism in other places of the world. Europe, for
example, is more open to nudism than America. For instance, France and Greece
are understood for topless sunbathing. A 1995 survey conducted by a French fashion magazine
revealed 40% of women seen a beach topless at some point in their lives, and only 7%
A Harris survey conducted in the early 1980's
reported 86% of French people favor nude beaches. Greece has an okay outlook
towards nudism too.

In fact, at the Carnival, it truly is an honor to be one of the topless dancers.
Looking at the extreme opposite, in nations like India, women must dress in a saris to
keep their skin covered. This is required because some body parts, like the ankles and
upper arms, are considered to be sexual. Muslim states have strict dress codes for

American attitudes towards public nudity and nudism have changed hardly any over
the years. Many people still find it repulsive and offensive for a mother to breast feed her
child in public. Oddly enough, our views concerning sexual conduct continue to become
more liberalized. 6 For example, premarital sex is more common nowadays and does not carry the
stigma as in the previous cast shame and guilt mostly among women. Homosexuality
presently falls into the class of an alternative lifestyle instead of an odd or curious
personality disorder. The truth is, it is no longer registered in the Diagnostic and Data
Manual (DSMIV) publication of mental and psychological disorders. Our cable TV channels and
magazines are plastered with sexually explicit movies and advertisements. Our beaches are
frequented by men and females clad in skimp apparel, including thongs. Teens sport bare
