The big takeaway that should concern nudists & naturists IMO is the invalidation of non sexual nudity if all nudity is sexual then the nudism as nakedness approach is dead in the water. What does it mean for the promotion of naturism. It means we need to focus more on way of life. #nugymnosophy
This is what the nudism is nakedness focus online has wrought. People make judgements about who is part of the community based in their bodies . nu Gymnosophy reminds us that inside every naked body is a human being who is much more than their body #nugymnosophy
What is #nugymnosophy -ethical naturism rooted in naturist values expressed in new ways that
value
- the human in naked bodies
- deep connections with nature
- personal self control
- managing the gaze
- non discrimination based on identity
- democratic cooperation above self interest
2/2 Samuels’ strong philosophical pragmatic & practical rejection of the separate but equal approach to the participation of Black Americans in nudism is an inspiration to genuine naturists pursuing inclusion today as we explore future of a naturist movement #nugymnosophy
This image with no nudity got almost 20,000 views on IG 95% of those not from our 7800 followers. Tell me why naturism can only be promoted with naked pics? Make it make sense. Values based ethical naturism is the future join the movement #nugymnosophy
This is why the people who the people who mute us or want to silence is miss the point. We elevate the experience of people like @scm1961.bsky.social whose post got 23k views through our social media. You don’t need to go it alone you can collaborate with us that’s #nugymnosophy
What does it mean to say we have a fresh perspective? We
- aren’t a promotional or propaganda arm for the establishment
- don’t curtail or censor opposing viewpoints we welcome them
- believe ordinary every people not content creators and celebrities are the future of naturism

Fire still going chillin with band mate talking music and stuff #nugymnosophy #naturismbeyondnakedness
The nudist establishment creates days on the calendar for ppl to be naked. Making nudism about a state of dress Naturism is a way of like naturists don’t get naked we live that way Recently performed clothes free in talent show I didn’t undress to do so I was already clothes free #nugymnosophy
That article is one of many I came across that challenge the embedded eurocentricity of the current #nudehistorymonth timeline article coming up on the subject in #nugymnosophy magazine will quote you!
The nakedness is nudism proponents would have us believe that nakedness is what connects us. I reject that, it is our humanity that connects us & drives the adoption of human principles that bring us into community with another. “ #naturism Not a state of dress but a way of life. “ #nugymnosophy
If you align with #nugymnosophy -ethical naturism rooted in naturist values expressed in new ways Repost this
We value
- the human in naked bodies
- deep connections with nature
- personal self control
- managing the gaze
- non discrimination based on identity
- democratic input above self interest
One key principles of Nu Gymnosophy (our approach to ethical naturism) is personal self control. Something the naked libertines want nothing to do with. This 2014 piece from our #nugymnosophy magazine spells out how living this principle works to further naturism

Nakedness does not solve our problem but naturism practiced as a way of life can generate a peaceful attitude when dealing with life’s challenges.

The #Lebensreform movement of early naturism & #gymnosophy bears a great similarity to the modern day practice of #rewilding #nugymnosophy)
Translated in #nugymnosophy terms
1. Body positivity health & wholeness not size or shape
2. Keep nature in naturism
3. Control behavior so everyone can be safe & belong
4. Speaks for itself
5. NO tolerance of racism, sexism, homophobia, ableism.
6. Community where everyone has a voice and input
This is a huge part of the problem with naturism right now people are looking at all the naked bodies online and assuming that is naturism - naturism is more than pics #nugymnosophy #morethanpics
No matter who we are, whether clothed or clothes free, we show up in social spaces with multiple identities not just one. Nudity or nakedness doesn’t change that. #nugymnosophy #naturism #gymnosophy #clothesfreelife
First post here taken from my (mostly inactive) Tumblr blog.
I will lurk more than I post. I use social media to stay informed, much less so to inform others.
