Naked Wreck Alert: Censorship is 50 Shades of... →
“ got a peek at the real spirit and standards of our time, when my art show was censored from the West Chelsea Artist Open Studios.

Rodos's Naturist Natter: Nobody or Somebody... →
“Human beings are all born without clothes, covered only by skin. Young children don’t care about clothes and are usually far happier, more comfortable and more contented without clothes.

Sadly it becomes instilled in them that their body without clothes is something to feel shame...
A Nude Forest in Canada! | Nudist Day →
