“Demystifying or desexualising doesn’t happen by hiding things away, it happens by bringing things into the light. We are called to be free, not to cling to the falsehoods that tie us to this twisted world.” —Martin Cliffe, Naturist-Christians Facebook post
“That nudity=sex is an axiom in our culture; no need for me to elaborate here. Christians who uphold the sanctity of marriage are horrified by the idea of sharing something they believe is as intimate and private as sex with someone outside the marriage bond. The syllogism makes sense: if nudity=sex, and sex outside of marriage=infidelity, then social nudity=infidelity. The problem is with the major premise; if you start with a false premise, you get a false conclusion. But that premise is so engrained in us, and so rarely challenged, that most people never question it nor can conceive of questioning it.” —Name Withheld
