Nudity is no more than a state of being unadorned with clothing, a state as close to natural as one can be in, given the peculiar circumstances of the individual, such as surgical alterations, tattoos, hair removal, contact lenses, jewelry, etc…
There is nothing about a human body or its functions that is embarrassing, uncomfortable or disgusting. It is who we are, after all. Humans. We smell, fart, sweat, defecate, urinate, ejaculate, spit, produce phlegm and mucus, grow hair and fingernails, and even get age spots as we grow older.
Each one of us has a unique body. It can be considered beautiful, ugly, fat, unfit or described by a myriad of other adjectives. It can be viewed or touched, hurt or pleasured. Or ignored. Or loved by ourselves and those close to us.
Nudity of the body isn’t much different from the nudity of the mind. There is nothing about our thoughts or feelings that is good or bad. We have feelings and we have thoughts. However, they are appropriately disclosed in certain circumstances and to certain people. In the same manner, nudity is appropriate in certain circumstances and with certain people.
The "unconventional" way of nudity is simple and in touch with our nature. We feel completely at ease being nude where it becomes a part of the experience we are in the process of creating, or enhances the experience we take a part in. We are not afraid or embarrassed by the natural functions or responses of our bodies. We accept them as part and parcel of this beautiful vehicle that we have been given. We work hard at understanding our bodies and we wish to create experiences that engender our further growth.
We. however, understand that the society at large has certain conventions that govern nudity. We conform to those conventions where it is necessary for our safe passage and to insure that we can continue to create experiences we wish to create. We do not make statements with nudity.
