"The accusation that 50 Shades is not a “feminist” book is telling. One hundred million women buy the book and it’s not feminist? That many women are not to be trusted to express their own eroticism? 50 Shades is not great literature (nor a great S/M manual), but it has flushed pro-censorship, anti-sexual diversity, fascist-style feminism out of the bushes."

“For the responsible fetishist, BDSM is about risk awareness and consent. Fifty Shades ignores these critically important aspects of the lifestyle in favor of glamorizing rape and predatory behavior.”

"For years, I have been preoccupied by the idea of pheromones and the emissions of our bodies as extrasensory devices of communication," Charchian recounted. "Clothes distract from that. I am interested in photographing the part of a person that cannot be expressed solely with speech or a look from the eye. One's nude body cannot convey a character it does not actually, for lack of a better word, 'embody.'"

"It’s not a romance. It’s a book about a rapey douchebag with borderline personality disorder who obsesses over an invertebrate whose insecurity should win her a Darwin Award. Instead of reading Fetish Sex, people are reading 50 Shades and sticking dangerous things up their butts. Instead of a sexy, relevant, redeeming film version of the book directed by Erika Lust or Anna at FrolicMe, we got another reminder that Hollywood and the mass book market for sexual content hasn’t quite grasped this whole internet fad."

"According to the Associated Press via the Billings Gazette, Rep. David Moore introduced a bill in the House Judiciary Committee designed to cut down on clothing that even hints at nudity. House Bill 365 aims to extend already existent indecent exposure laws in the state to cover nipples (including men's). The law would also make it illegal to wear certain clothes that look like or "simulate" genitals, buttocks and other naughty areas of the body. Tight fitting clothes that are nude colored or beige could also violate the law if the bill actually passes."

"Alongside the streamlining of forms that characterise art deco, another element that evokes both the classical age, as well as certain totalitarian regimes, is the emphasis on healthy, unashamed, de-eroticized nudity.
At the time, nudism was something of a minor religion in places such as Germany, where the Freikorperkultur (Free Body Culture) of the 1920s had been coopted by the Nazis, and was expressed in such projects as Leni Riefenstahl’s movie “Olympia” (1938), which was certainly daring in its presentation of near naked bodies. French art deco shared this love of idealized nudity, as we see in Rene Lalique’s decorative clock motif for “Night and Day” (1926), where the crystal glass emphasizes the purity of the nude male and female forms."

"Someone who hasn’t considered social nudity but decides to try it could add something valuable to his or her life. It could provide new opportunities that significantly enhance overall life satisfaction. Different people will find different benefits of social nudity to be especially enjoyable. Perhaps certain other social nudists are just your kind of people and would be great additions to your circle of friends. Or perhaps there are social nudists who also enjoy some activities that you already enjoy and are best done with others – particular sports, cooking, camping, or gardening, for example. Finding people like that could help you avoid missing out on any number of the finer things in life."

"Both my wife and I have agreed to foster positive body image with all our children. This means everything about our bodies – from what they look like, to what they can do. And yes, that includes issues of sex as well. In fact, we have taken upon ourselves twice the amount of work required to raise a child who is not ashamed of itself: teaching them to have positive body image, but at the same time know that most people have deeply negative body image and won’t appreciate their openness to it. It’s a difficult job, but the madness won’t end unless there are individuals out there who can think clearly on these matters."

Benefits of social nudity: body acceptance | Naturist Philosopher

Benefits of social nudity: body acceptance | Naturist Philosopher https://naturistphilosopher.wordpress.com/2015/02/01/benefits-of-social-nudity-body-acceptance/
"Social nudity directly confronts body acceptance issues. The proposition that all bodies should be accepted as they are is a key tenet for social nudity, because in order to enjoy social nudity at all it is necessary to overcome negative feelings about one’s own naked body and the naked bodies of others. The idea that only people with “attractive” bodies can enjoy social nudity is pernicious and must be rejected. Fortunately, body acceptance is doable for most people. And making the effort in order to engage in social nudity yields benefits in the rest of a person’s life when unhappiness over one’s physical appearance is overcome."

"Council has also been given a letter from one of the neighbours, which states in part: "I am writing about the ongoing nudity and sexual activity problems on Three Mile Public Beach. My family, friends, as well as the neighbourhood are very concerned about illegal activities that have been taking place on the public beach."
The letter further states: "We have a petition with over 200 signatures from local people and I think most importantly 98 per cent of the people who live and own homes on Three Mile Road do not want the nudity to be allowed.""

"We believe these statements to be false.”

"Now I'm just in a war with Instagram trying to keep my topless photos on it. Because I don't understand why nipples are nudity. Who cares? Men can show their nipples, but if we have breasts we can't show them? And so if you're flat-chested are you allowed to show your nipples? Is that better? And can I show one nipple, but not two? I don't even understand. Once somebody tells me I can't do something I have to figure out how to do it."

"The upshot of this misadventure in statute-drafting is that Florida’s sexting law is completely unenforceable. Thanks to the statute’s layered structure, the more serious penalties for sexting can only come after a minor has been convicted of his first offense. But because that first offense is a civil infraction—and because no court can hear civil cases involving minors—it is legally impossible for any minor to be charged with that first offense. As a result, there simply cannot be a second, third, or fourth offense. Sexting between teens—even sexting images of a minor’s nude body—is now functionally legal in Florida."

"The shock value attached with exposing the naked body only promulgates the idea that it is wrong and offensive to do so.
If it is unacceptable to show our bodies, then it must also be true that our bodies are something to be tucked away.
Now, I’m not saying we should all start running around naked or join a nudist colony, but I am saying the human body should not be gasp-worthy. Our bodies should be celebrated, not criticized."

"My pre-conception of social, non-sexual, nudity has also been a little more negative. In my (very limited) experience with the social nudism community I found the overt effort to suppress sexuality to be a little too aggressive and the vibe to be a little sanctimonious. But, my experience is VERY limited."

"The point of this class is to expose multiple behaviors, orientations and identities to people who wish to expand their knowledge of human sexuality. These are often professionals who want to be sex educators, therapists, or researchers. But there can also be individuals seeking personal growth or partners who attend, and simply want to expand their worlds. The panels are often the most transformative part of the workshop, our participants always tell us this."
