Personally I think we sometimes confuse Sexy with Beauty. I think that some clothes can draw attention to certain parts that can be sexy, and they are designed to do that. On the other hand the Human body is far more beautiful entirely nude than clothed. I think a nice allover tan looks better no matter what size the person is.
To answer the question: Clothes are Sexier but Nude is more Beautiful.

When I first became a nudist, one of the things that I noticed at the beach was that a lady with a few extra pounds was far more attractive totally nude with a nice tan than if she was trying to stuff herself into a bikini.

I totally agree with what you said and I tell people the same thing. I have been into nudism about 6 years now. Even those with great bodies have flaws when nude. I have to say I have been to my resort many times and was never sexually aroused by it, even though I am a very sexual person.

I think that originally clothing was meant to cover the naked body, but then it began to lift and support, and enhance, and colorize, and flatter, etc. Clothing then became much sexier than nudity. The nude body in and of itself is not sexy, as most nudists will attest to, a nudist resort is not as sexy a place as a clothed resort. Society has sexualized the naked body by clothing it in a sexual way.

All y’all make some really good points that definitely show your opinion. While everyone's opinion may be slightly different I can agree with all.... Is it sexier to be clothed than not? IMHO, it really depends on you... personally, when I see a fully clothed "morbidly obese" person, I feel like I could cry for them when I see them struggling to move about. I think to myself "how on earth could someone let themselves go that far?" Yet, when I see someone similar at a nudist event I don't necessarily see them as morbidly obese (Health wise, I think it may be a problem). As far as clothing goes, I think it is designed to make people look more 'desirable' to the opposite sex. So in that sense, clothed people are sexier than nudist; but nudist, IMHO, are more beautiful.

ok so I'm going to go against the grain here. Stating first that I am what people would consider a healthy 20 year old female, curvy but I take care of myself well. IMHO I believe that sexy is confidence, and confidence is not having to worry about where your bikini is being wedged. I feel 100% more sexy when I can sport a nice seam free tan and nothing else. I had to get my boyfriends opinion on this one and he agrees that even in a corset and heels I still look better at the beach. On the other hand this weighs strongly on the woman. If you are not happy with your shape and curves you may appear more confident when armed with some "restraints", but not me.

Then, of course, we have situations where we mix clothing or costumes with nudity such as at theme parties or dances. I remember one Bare Necessities cruise where a costume night was scheduled. The cruise director, who knew nothing about nudists, had said that he couldn't imagine what kind of costumes nudists could come up with. Boy, did he get an education! (One guy came as a bottle of tequila. I probably don't have to tell you what the worm was!)

Swimsuits, for one example, are much sexier. They have a combination of the seen and the unseen. The unseen is imagined, and the imagination always outperforms the reality of the seen. To illustrate that point, let's say you're going to the dentist for a root canal, tomorrow afternoon. All night long and all next morning your imagination is going to drag you through all the torture it can muster up, because imagination is not based on present reality. Then comes the actual procedure, which is far less of a trauma than your imagination had told you.
In that light, say you're at the beach and your a healthy young guy. You see all the young women running around in their bikinis. Your imagination makes these young girls sexier than they really are. The contrasts between body parts and bright colored bikinins are sharp. At a nudist resort, these contrasts and objects of an imagination are all gone. The young ladies have a monotone appearance. It's almost kind of dull, without the swimsuits capitalizing on the female body.
That has been my experience, that all those women are fairly monotone, as are the men, for that matter. Also, all is revealed, so there is nothing symbolic to "celebrate." The nude people might as well be porpoises for all the effect they are having one a person at the nudist resort.
So you have Madison Avenue on the one hand, and dull nature on the other. If you want contrasts in nature, look for colorful birds, and you'll have better luck.

This is a highly individual question, and each person's viewpoint will largely depend on how they were conditioned to clothing/nudity as a child. This includes the question of having siblings of the opposite sex as well as parents and all their behaviors. Check out the cultural anthropology of clothing styles. No definitive answer is possible.

I believe it was C. S. Lewis who said that we never would have learned lasciviousness if we hadn't first learned modesty.

In my opinion nude is more atractive than not but sexy is an attitude that one gets from being confident in there body and personality clothed or not. Someone who I would think is sexy nude is also the same person I would think is sexy clothed.

Push up bras, lingerie, suspenders look alot sexier than nude women because the are designed to make women's assets stand out more, while leaving things to the imagination.
Seeing girls in bikinis is alot sexier than in the nude, but this doesn't matter in a non sexual nudist setting.

This is very interesting topic. In terms of which I would consider to be sexier, I would say that clothing can be depending on what is worn. Certain pieces of clothing can be worn to stress some parts of one's body and drawing attention to them. Someone who is nude is in their natural state and unless they are behaving in a way that is considered to be inappropriate then they are less sexy. Clothes give the illusion that there is something underneath worth viewing and creates a curiosity as to what is underneath the clothing.
