Great point, but what about the young adults who are alone...I mean completely alone? No one to invite, and no one to talk to or hang out with when they arrive. Some young adults don't have friends that would even consider joining a nudist venue, let alone visit one. So why not have events in which young adults can interact with other young adults. A good way to do this is advertise. Advertisements at universities near a nudist resort would definately bring out the young adults. You could also invite famous singers to have a concert at a nudist venue, they would attract young adults like bees to honey. Or what about having certain days of the week set aside for only young adults? These are some ideas, that would attract a younger crowd to nudist resorts.
It may sound like a horse,but it may be a zebra, so don't judge.

So I'm thinking about what you said Young... advertisements at universities, I live less than 2 miles from one of the biggest universities in michigan. Turtle Lake is haveing a free Sunbathing Day in a couple weeks and I was considering putting up some of their posters to put out around campus. I don't know that I would do it actually ON campus as the school may take exception to that and being summer there are more students just off campus than there are on campus. I'm thinking about the record stores and possibly some of the coffee shops and bookstores. I'll have to write Turtle Lake to see if they can send me one of their fliers to make copies to put up.
The biggest problem that I see with what you are asking for is, firstly you want someone ELSE to plan this event, inherently that would be the older owner/opperators of the resorts, thus inherently it would be harder to attract a young crowd. secondly, I believe that it has the possibility to draw a large ammount of single young MALES but I think you'd have some trouble attracting single young FEMALES. From my experience you would need to get girls already involved in the naturist community to go out and recruit other females to come out. Finally, and this is related to the second item, to find females to do this you should join a local club or start your own club, that would give you the opportunity to find people of like mind and then you wouldn't be a young adult who's completely alone anymore!

A lot of the younger adults just dont have the extra money to spend on going to resorts, or the time, being extremely busy with their college studies and getting their careers going. It also depends on where they are as well. Lots of places are a long ways away from them. Young adults are very busy people, especially in todays society. And honestly, with all the bad 'press' we get from these 'reality' shows just makes them that more uninterested in trying nudism, because they are betrayed in these shows as consisting of nothing but old, retired unattractive people. Its a damn shame if u ask me.

For the guy who keeps making up excuses just tell him you two are going to go golfing or fishing or whatever. Then take him out there. If this is the same guy who's girlfriend would go if he went get her involved in the little deception. I'm sure once he got out there he wouldn't mind especially if he met his girlfriend already out there. I know, I know, it's wrong, it's deceitful, it's a low down dirty trick! But hey haven't we all have a trick like this played on us at one time or another? Or wouldn't we have liked someone to?

I encourage as many young people as possible to become nudists. In this way we may get past some of the judgmental, stodgey, rule promulgating, puritanical folks who control nudist venues. What makes me laugh is to see these Volkswagen busses with peace signs rolling up ... nudists get out and then start meeting and talking about rules and regulations. A long way from the 60's guys!! Give it up.

I agree..when are they going to figure out that it's now the 1970's and the 1960's are now gone..time to start a new revolution guys.

I'm under the same impression... That's why Jeff & I have made reservations at Cypress Cove, Fl. to take our grandsons (6 & 3), their mom (20) and our granddaughter ( 3 months). We will be spending 2 nights and I know the boys will enjoy it, the baby won't care, but our daughter will hopefully enjoy it enough to become a member. Since she lives only about an hour from there.

Minnie,
you are right. the kids will have a great time, and if the weather is hot enough, your daughter will probably join in (hopefully), just to cool off.
weather in central florida was in 90s yesterday and humid.

To the original poster,
You are opening another can of worms... because all behaviors and processes of life are interconnected.
It can be argued that every behavior is a "gear and pulley" within a larger mechanism of natural selection. All roads lead to "Rome"...and every behavior is a function whose ultimate purpose can be linked/traced to the sequence of: performance->evaluation->selection->procreation.
Notice the last part is most important. Everything is ultimately related to procreation/sexuality. It is a key process in forging the recipie of our genes. A life-form maybe extremely fit in every respect, but without procreation it is evolutionaly truncated.
Looking at life from an "aerial" birds-eye view... we see a pool of genetic permutations of the same theme (say human) constantly recombining.
Any conceptual attempts by nudists to dissociate from sexuality is questionable. Every behavior is ultimately "sexual/procreational" regardless of clothed or unclothed ambiance. In every step of the way we are constantly "evaluating" each other (the clothing industry, the cosmetics industry, plastic surgeries, diet/weight-loss/fitness industries, the males striving to outperform each other with more technologies and toys are tell-tale signs of a struggle to attach more "value" to our genes, even extrinsic when all else fails).
Young people are 80-90% sexual.
It is unlikely you will see participation of the youth segment unless nudists in general put in proper perspective the sensuality / sexuality / arousal issues first; without placing nature in a box and pressurising it.
Youth is at the peak of their libido. Removing their clothing will reveal nature in its true colors (that most old-fashioned people will find unpalatable and will prefer it covered and out of view; since ignorance is bliss) which would be hard enough on conservative values but now it will also be amplified by the preexisting psychological obsessive factor towards skin.
Clothing (among other things) has created artificial scarcity... The mind is evolutionaly wired to perceive anything rare as *valuable*. Creating scarcity of "visible skin" makes it valuable/desirable and causes (mostly males) to obsess.
It is expected that the general population including young people is largely absent from venues. Because the existing nudism restrictions do not feel "natural". It bottles them up too much.
In the mean time it seems nudism is best fit for females alone, middle-aged couples and males on the declining phase of their libido.

Massai,
you make the comment that young people/couples will not attend because of their libido. You seem to think that all young men will walk around in a continuous state of arousal. Not true. If you have spent extensive periods of time in a naturist setting, you will find that erections are an occasional occurrence.
nudity is sensual. sexuality is an accepted part of life, as long as it is done under the same behavior as in a clothed group.
sex is not forbidden in the privacy of one's mobile home or camping area.
you are making a false assumption; in europe, there are a lot more young naturists than in the U.S.. are we to assume that european young people have lower libido levels than American young people.
and what about the young people and families at nude resorts and the beaches?
and what about the fact that nude recreation is growing, economically grossing close to half a billion dollars.
you mentioned women alone, middle aged couples (they have no sex drive? dont think so.), and men with fading libidos.
you do not mention young couples and single men.
Honest affection is not prohibited in most places.
unacceptable behavior, regardless of where is still unacceptable.
oh, could you please be more specific with your examples? your broadbrushed statements need more meat.

why is everyone so scared by sexuality? This is the biggest problem in general...not just with younger nudists...
No one should change how they act b/c they are nude....thats how i see it. Putting limitations on how people should act is the same as putting limitations on what people should wear....you dont want people to tell you to put clothes on so why are we telling people not to act a certain way(sexually)
Like Massai said people are scared of young people b/c they are more sexual...and they have "issues"....i welcome these issues...b/c this is who we are...and this is what young people do...and maybe they wont have these "issues"(i dont think they are issues anyway) if they could experience nudism more easily.
If you are a very sexual person with your clothes on...why cant you be that same person with your clothes off?
Thats just how i see it. Im not scared of seeing people acting in anyway...im not scared to see a man with an erection...im not scared to see people acting sexually....I believe that those of you that cant stand to see these things are the one with "issues". Just dont look at it if you dont like it....as you would do in the "real" clothed world.
But what do I know...im young (25)

There is a difference between sexuality and sex...they do not have to go hand in hand.
