Nudism, often referred to as naturism, is a lifestyle that promotes social nudity in a non-sexual context. Practitioners believe that being nude in social settings fosters a sense of freedom, self-acceptance, and connection with nature. Many nudist communities and resorts exist worldwide, providing safe spaces for individuals and families to enjoy this lifestyle. The philosophy behind nudism emphasizes body positivity and the rejection of societal norms regarding clothing. Participants often engage in various activities, such as swimming, hiking, and sunbathing, while embracing their natural state. This practice encourages individuals to appreciate their bodies and the environment around them.
