Taiwanese naturists defying social and legal norms while nurturing body positivity
This article by Ray Hecht explores the experiences of Taiwanese naturists who defy social and legal norms while promoting body positivity. Hecht highlights the monthly gatherings of the “Return to Nature” group, where members embrace communal nudity in rented private spaces, fostering a supportive environment. Despite Taiwan's progressive stance on issues like same-sex marriage, public nudity remains illegal. The article delves into the challenges and joys faced by these naturists, emphasizing the themes of freedom, body acceptance, and the importance of creating safe spaces.
Ready to test your pop culture nudity knowledge?
In this week’s #UndressedThread, we brought back the popular “Nudism in Pop Culture” trivia quiz, and the response has been fantastic! Participants tested their knowledge with fun questions like which year San Francisco passed its public nudity ban and what clue helped solve the mystery in The Cool Cottontail. Other engaging questions highlighted nudism’s presence in pop culture and history. Whether you scored big or learned something new, the quiz sparked great conversation and nostalgia. Share your score and join the discussion—what did you find most surprising?

Women in Focus with Anne Nisbet
In this episode of Women in Focus, I speak with Anne Nisbet, a recently retired specialist in radiation protection from the UK Health Security Agency. As British Naturism’s International Director, Anne represents the organization to the International Naturist Federation (INF). During her career, Anne traveled the world on business, and it was on a trip to Helsinki that she stumbled upon a ladies-only sauna, where she discovered that social nudity felt completely natural. Anne shares her experiences, insights into British Naturism, and much more.
