Dr. Leisure has given a lot of thought as to why people do just that. Although there has been much written about the liberation and personal freedom associated with such a lifestyle Dr. Leisure believes the reasons are more fundamental. People are people wherever one goes and it all comes down to "community." We, all of us, want to be a part of something. We want to fit in and make a contribution to that something. Thus we all want to be part of a group or an extended family which may ultimately be the community in which we live.

Part of the idea of community is associating with like minded individuals. That is why we prefer going to the church of our choice, or being a member of a particular social club, or rooting for a particular football team. Being so involved constitutes a manifestation of the concept of "community."

This is the bonding force within the various nudist communities or clubs which Dr. Leisure has visited all over the world. The people involved are essentially no different than most anywhere else, except they may not have on a full set of clothes.

Let me suggest the description of a stereo typical nudist community. It will contain among its physical amenities club house, swimming pool, volley ball court, restaurant, lodging accommodations and outdoor space. The people in it will be doing such things as reading, eating, sleeping, playing, and in general living.

Nothing particularly unusual here! And that is the point. Being a nudist and living in a nudist community is just another variation of the human condition. It is people being with people and creating a community.

Little Snippet about Nude Clubs and Nude Resorts

Clubs and nudist resorts vary in many regards. Some will offer and require a tour of the grounds. Some will require nudity on this tour while others will not. Some have world class resort accommodations, others are more rustic with most somewhere in between.

Clubs usually charge a day use fee and an additional fee to stay overnight. The fee will depend on the nature of accommodations, number in party, number of days, etc.

Some clubs have a policy regarding admittance of single individuals either male or female. Most clubs are family oriented but again some may not be.

Ask about the things that concern you and your situation.

Going to a beach or hot spring is even easier. If it is a high use area (and many clothing optional beaches have that level of usage) just drop in and do what feels right. Dr. Leisure would suggest finding a location on the beach that suites one's personal preferences for sun/shade. The World Guide suggests some protocols for nude beach users and you might want to review them. In general nude or clothing optional beaches are like any other except most people are not wearing clothes. And in Dr. Leisure's experience the inhabitants are more open and friendly than on textile beaches. But that is a relative statement and in point of fact Dr. Leisure has found people to be very friendly to him where ever he may be in the world.
