I’ve concluded over the past few years that I really wish I had embraced nudity years ago. My body negativity is off the charts- I have no doubt that I would have had a healthier life. Our kids would have benefited as well.
Still only naked at home; don’t know how to change that. My wife won’t budge.
Great summary Evan. Two observations. First this needs to be in the back pocket of anyone who is helping to fight anti-nudity legislation or policies, or anyone helping with child custody cases in say, Arkansas for example. Second, I would would add that there is another powerful longitudinal dataset that supports the assertion that nudity doesn't harm children or is beneficial to children. I'm referring to the fact that for more than 90 years, children have grown up in families whose parents were members of landed or non-landed nudist clubs. Some of those children adopted the lifestyle while others didn't, but there is almost a complete absence of cases of children being harmed.
