What kinds of people are nudists?
A. Nudists come in all shapes, sizes, and ages–doctors, teachers, construction workers, lawyers, dispatchers, truck drivers, police officers, secretaries, firefighters, nurses! The Roper Organization reports that 40 million Americans have skinny-dipped in mixed company. Your colleague at work, or the family next door, may spend their leisure time at a club affiliated with the American Association for Nude Recreation – Northwest (AANR-Northwest) and the American Association for Nude Recreation (AANR). You are accepted for who you are inside, not how you look on the outside. People who enjoy nude recreation develop a healthy body image which builds self-esteem.
