This last year I have been naked outdoors the grand sum of 10 minutes, a visit to Corton that was lovely weather when I set off and cold, wet, and windy by the time I got there.

So next year, 2025, I really need to get out and naked far more often.

In 2025, I’d love to visit nudist spaces I haven’t yet, find ways to bring up nudism up in daily conversation, and encourage family/friends to join me on adventures.

Spending most of Christmas week at Mira Vista naturist resort has been a continuation of just being naked in nature whenever it suits us. Our AANR member club became a textile place. We’re not crying. We simply get naked other places and they CAN be found. Happy 2025!

I would love to be able to share my nudity with others. I am only nude in my apartment with the window blinds closed.

Yes it seems my nudism tends to be at home as well. My resolution is to let more of the people in my life know that this is how I live at home, not to make them feel uncomfortable about wanting to come over but to know that if they choose to be naked within my home they are more than welcome to shed their clothes and enjoy our time together.

My resolution is to be more open about being a nudist.

As an aside, I prefer the word "nudist" because it's unambiguous about what you're declaring. Philosophically, I probably align with "naturist" a bit more closely but for public consumption, I'm a nudist. And I'm not going to be shy about admitting it. Once it's out there, you can always get into the weeds about what it is and what it isn't.

No, I'm not going to steer conversations to nudism merely for me to do some kind of weird virtue-signaling or proselytizing. Yet if the topic of what I did last weekend arises, I'm not going to be squeamish about telling people I spent time at my nudist club completely, 100% naked. And that I had a great time in a community of like-minded people.

Will that change my relationship with some people for the worse? Maybe. But was that a relationship I should be trying to keep in the first place? Will some change for the better? That's a maybe as well and something to anticipate with happiness. The most likely outcome is that people will treat announcing "I'm a nudist" with the same interest as me declaring for a particular sports team or talking about my favorite genre of novels. The reaction will probably be, "Oh, that's nice". The people you want to get to know are the ones that follow up with, "Tell me more".

You are correct, NUDIST is the better term.to describe this wonderful way of life. Not all nudists are nature lovers.

I haven't had any social nude experience. I hope 2025 will be my year.

What I will do for 2025 - and what all us us should be planning to do for 2025 - is to double my advocacy for legal nude recreation: Don't let ANY beach, park or public area which has allowed nude recreation in the past to be closed by the religio-fascists who now occupy the U.S. Government!!! Fight for every square inch of legally-nude public space that we have because, if we were to give up our fight now, then before the end of this decade, the right to be legally nude in any public setting, as well as public acceptance of social nudity in general, will be eradicated.

Yes it will, this is why i am urging newly installed A.A.N.R. President LINDA EVANS to start holding public discussions with clothed members of the public to shatter the myths from.the facts about what the Nudist lifestyle is really all about.

I want to spend more time nude and to experience social nudity. Most importantly, I want to be the best man, husband and dad that I can possibly be.

I’m not a completely free person, so I better acknowledge that while knowing that I will continue to seek, create, and act on new socially nude opportunities as I did this year. Second, support WNRL.

I would say be naked as much as possible, but I already do that.
