There are many people who prefer to live without clothing, to a greater or lesser extent. But
for anyone who does so, there is a cloud over it, a societal taboo that insists that do to so
is somehow shameful or dirty. While it is true that there are those for whom nudity is
inseparable from sex, and sex from unruly behavior, those of that group who choose a nude lifestyle
are a tiny minority of nudists. Unfortunately it's those who don't who are the worse problem -
haunting nude beaches, spying on nudists, and engaging in sexual behavior in response to seeing
a nude body. They are the ones who give a nudist lifestyle a bad name by their fascination with
it.
The Society for Ethical Nudity is a freeform association of people who choose to live life in
their natural state, and see that as a valid and honorable lifestyle choice. It's built
around three principles, and if you are in harmony wth those principles, then you are a member
of the Society.
