Just to nudge things back to the topic, we believe, a couple of things. The first being, that you can be only you, the person you truly are, and within Naturism, you are your authentic true self, embrace it.

Secondly, we live in a world that loves to find fault, ridicule, and victimise, because we have built a society on puritan ideals that have no bearing at all on hunman behaviour. It is a fake, an Emproors clothes if you want. Image and clothing have been hijacked by the wealthly money makers, as has hypocrisy by those who govern, and both are used as the tools to divide and conquer.

As a result we have to chose between being who we really are, or running with the fake narrative of society, if we choose our authentic selves, then there will be a reaction from those who run on bile and hate, and they need to be ignored.

Anna said it perfectly, and it is something I have often said in a counselling room. "What someone says about you, says more about them, than it ever will you." It is the right wisdom to adopt in all life, not just naturism.

We choose to be open when asked about our naturism, we refused to be shamed for it, as we believe it is the natural path and way of a human being, and everyday we try to be good human beings. If we had a friend that dissagreed with it, or response would simply be, we are us, and you are you, and you have no fear as you do not have to do it. If they attacked us for it, well, they would not be invited back to our home again, it is that simple.

We are going to fly out to Oregon today and scout possible living areas.  We are anticipating a move to that area for health reasons.   Weather report is 111 deg f for about 3 days.  Hardly the best choice of time to visit.  

I will be out of touch but you guys stay calm and carry on.

Reading Don's post directly above has me wondering how many people say to estate agents /realtors "I am looking for somewhere where I can enjoy naturism."  ?

It could be really useful and if the estate agent thinks naturism is weird they are hardly going to say and miss out on a sale. 

It would also be interesting to go to your neighbours and say "I am thinking about buying next door, I will be wanting to be naked in the garden I hope that will be OK." It gets it confronted before you even move in and you never know they may say "We do the same."

My guess is that since money is involved (a commission) the agent will make an effort unless he/she is anti-nudity.

We would hazard a guess that they would house you anywhere, except where they live :)
