Conditioned

“When people actually try naturism who have poor body image, their body confidence increases hugely and their mental health also improves. We are so conditioned to seeing perfect Photoshopped models in magazine adverts which no one can measure up to. When people see real naked bodies of all shapes and sizes, they realise that we are all imperfectly beautiful.” —Gary & Noreen Kennedy, https://m.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/life/features/naturism-ni-when-people-see-real-naked-bodies-of-all-shapes-and-sizes-they-realise-that-we-are-all-imperfectly-beautiful/a1801715998.html “Naturism is liberation from the attitude that you have to have the perfect body. What you’ve got doesn’t matter because naturists see people for their spirit, for what they are.” —Micaela Stanford, quoted in https://disabilitynow.wordpress.com/2012/12/07/the-naked-truth/ “Do you want to know what a perfect body for naturism looks like? Stand in front of a mirror. Everyone has a body for naturism. Embrace your body because it is what makes you, you, and you are unlike anyone else. Own it!” —Linda Weber, @truebluenude on X.com #IAmtheFaceofNaturism, https://x.com/truebluenude/status/1680880072335720451?s=46&t=fpiEy5CqbBOXR1N66BxSTw
