Rapid Quiz Question: Nudism is good for children. Correct or incorrect?
Answer=”Correct”
Nudism welcomes children and actually encourages families with young children to bring their kids. Children are the most enthusiastic nudists because they have not yet learned to feel shame about their own or others’ bodies, or to equate nudity with sex. Nudists are always on the lookout for the safety of children.

NIFTY Bylaws, p.6
NIFTY shall be, as much as possible, a grassroots democratic organization. No president or permanent chair shall exist. A chair shall be elected at each NIFTY meeting for the purpose of that meeting only, their term ending with that meeting. The only table officers are the secretary and the treasurer.
NIFTY History, p.4
NIFTY has held many events over the years: topfree and clothing-optional parades and marches, topfree picnics and book readings, clothing-optional dances and movie nights, and more. We also usually host a clothing-optional picnic following the Vancouver portion of the annual World Naked Bike Ride. While these events are celebratory in nature, they also serve to educate the public about the harmful effects of suppressing the natural body, and to advocate for clothing-optional rights.
Rapid Quiz Question: Nudism is new and alien in the history of humankind. Correct or incorrect?
Answer=”Incorrect”
Scientists believe that humans lost body hair more than 1,500,000 years ago and began wearing clothes only about 170,000 years ago. This means that for more than 1,000,000 years humans lived without any clothes at all!
NIFTY Bylaws, p.3
All NIFTY events shall be clothing-optional if possible. No NIFTY event or function shall he nude-only or clothed-only unless it is absolutely unavoidable
NIFTY History, p.6
NIFTY is proud of its twenty-plus year history of advocacy, and we intend to continue our fight until all citizens have the freedom to wear clothes if they choose, and not wear them if they choose, in public spaces around the world.
Rapid Quiz Question: Nudists are asexual people. Correct or incorrect?
Answer=”Incorrect”
Nudists are sexual beings, but they conduct their activities in private.
Rapid Quiz Question: Nudists have to remain unclothed all the time. Correct or incorrect?
Answer=”Incorrect”
Nudists remain unclothed any time when practical, but tend to dress when the weather becomes bad.
NIFTY History, p.1
Founded in 1992, NIFTY (Naked Iconoclasts Fighting The Yoke) is a group of citizens who believe that people should be allowed to decide for themselves whether to wear clothing or not in public spaces. Essentially, the group formed in opposition to section 174 of the Canadian Criminal Code, which declares public nudity a criminal offense. However, we advocate for clothing-optional rights for everyone, not just Canadians. Although many NIFTY members are naturists or nudists, NIFTY is not a naturist/nudist group; we are simply a group of citizens who believe in the right of every person to decide what, if any, clothing to wear in public spaces.

I’m a 24 year old man, looking for fellow naturists & nudists. I have never found a nudist area in which I can freely love with my body. I wish to someday find someone (perhaps a group) of fellow nudists around the Vancouver/Portland area of the northwest (Oregon & Washington). I’d be more than happy to meet others with the same interest… Thank you for your time
Sincerely
Zach
Zach, I’am a true nudist also! I’am a gay guy who lives in a nudist resort in California, it is a very progressive nudist resort! It’s not clothing optional, but full nudity is required at all times, weather permitting, and so everyone is nude, even the employees are required to be nude.
i am very much interested in taking experience with nudist and being nude . i have newer been so . i strongly think that being in nude is very free and it makes people to understand what is reality
