What do you call your relationship to nudity?
From lifestyle to leisure, this #UndressedThread explores where you land on the nudity spectrum
Some of us call ourselves naturists. Others say nudist, or advocate, or activist. There are barefooters and freehikers and skinnydippers. For many, it’s recreational—a beach thing, a home thing, or just something that feels good. And for many, no label at all feels quite right.
From ethical naturists to unlabeled nonconformists, the language we use often reflects how we experience nudity: as identity, philosophy, lifestyle, protest, or pleasure.
In this #UndressedThread, we’re asking: how do you relate to nudity?
Do you identify with any particular label—nudist, naturist, etc.—or none at all?
Does the label matter? Or is it just about what nudity means to you?
Has your relationship with nudity or the labels you prefer changed over time?
Let’s unpack it together. 🪐

I prefer the term “nakedist”. My grandkids call it being “barefoot all-over”.
I'm a nudist. I feel the most comfortable when I'm naked. In daily life, I wear clothing because I have to, not because I want to. In any situation where being naked is possible, I much prefer to be naked. So at home to start with, I do not wear clothing. The sauna and the beach; also naked. Going on vacation at Cap d'Agde naturist village; naked 24/7, no matter rain or sunshine.
