Don't worry about fitting yourself into a category. If you enjoy it in any of its manifestations, and you have it in your being to enjoy the experience, you are one. You define yourself and who and what you are by your actions and your personality. You are not defined by what others think.

You are a nudist. Welcome. I believe that being a nudist is more a state of mind than state of dress. You don't have to be nude socially. You don't have to join a club. It is simply a matter of believing that being nude is ok and accepting others right to enjoyment of the same.

keth1988 welcome to our world of nudism, they call people who enjoy wearing no clothes nudists, which some may agree and others don't like the label. Its your choice and freedom to decide. Enjoy life naturally its not such a minority.

From your first sentence, I would say you already joined "the club" to become a naturist/nudist. Now if there is an official club near you to join, that is a different thing.

hello, in my minute knowledge of nudism and the act of being one, i feel it is the individual enjoyment and sense of freedom and self-expression you feel from being nude. You can be a nudist only in your own home or at a beach or resort; it's all person preference. If this is incorrect, please correct me.
I've attempted to locate the 'live chat' room, but for the life of me, can not find it it in the Paltalk program. Any suggestions to live chat with other nudists?
[Admin's note: I believe the Chat Room is currently opened only on Tuesday nights around 7pm by Cheri and friends. When a moderator has not opened it, it does not appear in the PalTalk list.
Hey, no topic hijacking! That should have been posted somewhere else. Back to the topic...]

Wikipedia has a quite good discussion of the distinction between "nudism" and "naturism", with the latter probably involving personal internalization of a broader set of social attitudes. But I agree with other comments that younger people in particular shouldn't worry about trying to squeeze into old labels. Its just about thinking through the practical (eg. warmth) versus the invented (eg. decency) reasons for clothes, thinking about what makes it possible for people to be just as comfortable together without clothes as with, and then living those values in your own context. My impression is that many of the gender role and relationship issues that older naturists face don't really apply or are quite different for younger naturists. Usually the first thing anyway for a 19 year old to do is to rethink the attitudes of elders and discard the foolish stuff. Finding it shocking to see each other nude, rather than treating it as no big deal, pretty clearly falls into the foolish category.

No! It's not usual. It's not appropriate. And it's not acceptable. That is the kind of thing that gives the nudists a bad name and it gets beaches closed to us and laws passed against us. It should be pointed out to the authorities if there are any in the area, by nudists to show that we do not accept or condone the public practice of sex.

keth1988, please stick to the topic. If you want to discuss another topic, find the place for it and post it there.
You started this forum about "young nudists". Then you switched to inappropriate beach activity within that same thread.
This is called Topic Hijacking, and is something trolls do to cause trouble, and leave a worthless mess behind when then are finally booted out.
Once again, back to the topic of "young nudists". Did you have any more questions on THAT subject?
