Nudism/Naturism is a cultural movement practiced by people who prefer to keep in touch with the basics in life. It refers to men and women alike who proudly practice and advocate the display of social and public nudity. Nudism is often taken for erotic, although almost every nudist will contradict your assumption when you say that. So please, respect everyone's beliefs as they would respect yours.
