Naked is the only way to swim

Knee jerk reaction to lack of parental control

Its just a state of dress. All the others involve an action its those they actually need protection from. If the kids stopped sending them it wouldn't be an issue.

Youre welcome to some of ours. The damn dogs bring them in and drop them on the floor.

Women are taught to “cover up” and feel shame about their bodies. Naturism is letting go of that fear and standing in your own confidence. Your body is part of who you are—nothing to hide. Thousands of women stand with you around the world. — Alice de Wet, President of @gonatural.bsky.social

Here, merely being naked does not constitute and offense. Hence you can be naked in the yard, walk naked in the woods, swim naked off any beach. All perfectly legal. I live next door to a school and they are fine with it.

I would have thought so. I dont know your law but here if you agree to be interviewed you are giving tacit ownership of the material to the interviewer.

I would have assumed that a release was obtained at the time of recording. It's normal practice. Thus its their property that they can use as they wish

We certainly agree on that front. One reason I no longer visit the US is their attitude to nudity. If I walk down the street in spain or the UK im not breaking any laws

I not sure how you stretch to misogyny but one thing most of the comments and attitudes posted across multiple sites certainly convince me that europe has a far more civilised attitude.

Is this more than heresy

Grahame @fluxroad.bsky.social · 06/03/2026
As far as I can see these are assertions only. Given they assertion made by one of the parties they hold no weight unless proven.

Yes would happily say to someone's face. I tend not to have to because I live in a civilised country that tend not to descend to degenerate statements.

Grahame @fluxroad.bsky.social · 17/02/2026
I never said there wasnt but merely questioned the motivation. That said, surely using NNN to promote yourselves then subsequently trashing them on multiple levels does put into question your ethics. Particularly as the events are somewhat interleaved

Grahame @fluxroad.bsky.social · 17/02/2026
Then later you return to what was a throw away statement, that im yet to locate and do a complete about face. Is that not duplicitous? Seems to me at some point you've sold your soul and a jumping to the tune of the organ grinder.

Grahame @fluxroad.bsky.social · 17/02/2026
I guess that depends on a definition of many. From my listening, they subsequently promoted YOUR concert a few times on their show - I am guessing that you asked them to do so - and then they devoted nearly an entire show on Episode 130 to read, discuss, and support your rules for your concert.

Grahame @fluxroad.bsky.social · 15/02/2026
I've re-listened to an awful lot. Despite the statements, I'm left with a question. If episode of 92 was such a major issue to Gabby, why would you return in episode 130? Does not make sense at all. Unless its an externally manufactured or driven situation.

I appreciate your opinion, I certainly not American, while I did briefly live there, I certainly do not understand the culture and quite frankly glad I chose to leave. My view if the world in certainly antipodean and my history distinctly European.

I'll listen again but I'm not sure I'll agree.

They certainly have loyalty and commitment, I'm just not sure what too.

Possibly but why walk away from AANR? Unless its irrelevant to her.

Grahame @fluxroad.bsky.social · 14/02/2026
However you comment so extensively about you "Brand", I assume your concern is more fiscally based than an ethical one.
110
Grahame @fluxroad.bsky.social · 14/02/2026
This does make me question your commitment to naturism. To walk away from AANR over something that you alledge occured and of this nature seems at minimum to petty. Surely your contribution is more important?

Grahame @fluxroad.bsky.social · 13/02/2026
Following your comment I went to see what questionable comments they have been making, so far to no avail. Please enlighten me as to where I may find them.

Grahame @fluxroad.bsky.social · 11/02/2026
It would appear to me of late, your tone has changed. The acceptance and non-partisanship i would expect from a true naturist is abscent. Surely this mean many things you post are regrettable.

What would be your preferred medium. Note I suspect we have a time difference.

Grahame @fluxroad.bsky.social · 06/02/2026
I agree, while I have a desire to understand, this is probably not the right forum.

Grahame @fluxroad.bsky.social · 06/02/2026
As I said as you wish. But if you read what you wrote, look at the background and what was actually said. Put you prejudices aside. You will see they are not unfounded as to whether they are necessary is a matter of opinion. Have a good day

Grahame @fluxroad.bsky.social · 06/02/2026
What i said was, it depends totally on on your referential frame. I also noted that the intensity of the discussion seemed unwarranted and as such it was a facade for whatever the true issue was. Which I suspect, even if you know it, you are unlikely to table.
110
Grahame @fluxroad.bsky.social · 06/02/2026
As you wish, but i didn't imply your naturist principles were flawed, you did. Your termination of the discussion in itself is prima facae of a situation in merely intimated.

While not knowledgeable of the minutiae of American social history, I know enough to find some aspects of it distasteful. The import of some attitudes with the US forces in WW2 has unfortunately persisted. However I'm not sure where colored people entered this conversation, please elucidate.

Grahame @fluxroad.bsky.social · 06/02/2026
Being raised in europe, it's quite possible we have different ideas on naturist principles. However that does not imply mine are flawed. In all perceptions, the referential frame of the observer is carried forward to the interpretation.

Grahame @fluxroad.bsky.social · 06/02/2026
As you said in your article, "they did not actually say it". Therefore you had to have made some form interpretation. This interpretation will be colored by you proceeding experiences and prejudices. Accordingly as I said you're wheeling a barrow for some u declared issue.

Grahame @fluxroad.bsky.social · 06/02/2026
I doubt you're going to voice it, but I'm 100% sure its not compatible with the ethos of naturism.

Grahame @fluxroad.bsky.social · 06/02/2026
Intriguing, I've read the article and searched out the podcast to which I believe you are referring. I see no element of fat shaming there, certainly not on their behalf. I think there is more of an element here, that you wish they had so you can attack them. Im not sure of the underlying issue.

Almost certainly not. I would totally indoctrinated and seeking cheap thrills. When will people understand our lifestyle is just a normal life but more in harmony with nature.
