  1.  Inspired by body favorable activist Virgie Tovar and also this recent post on Mic, "5 Body Shaming Opinions That Everyone Should Quit Saying This Summer" I determined to write my own list of body shaming comments that http://oldmutualannuities.org/__media__/js/netsoltrademark.php?d=nude-beach.net s are tired of hearing. This list is all about how people shame the nude body, notably the female body. It is also about how naturists are shamed for daring to be nude and accept themselves as they're.
  2.  1. Why are individuals at the naked beach never the people you need to see naked?
  3.  I brought up this comment in our 10 common myths about naturism, but here it is again, as it has everything related to body shaming.
  4.  Naturism is not about looking pretty for anyone. Nobody (unless they're exhibitionists) goes to the unclothed beach to be your eye candy. If you go to a bare beach or nudist resort simply to look at bodies you find attractive, your creepy behavior is called voyeurism.
  5.  For quite a while, marketers have been using the notion of the beach body or "bikini body" to promote particular attractiveness standards and sell products. Those products are somehow assumed to make that specific body type look attainable to consumers.
  6.  The female beach body is slim, toned and tanned with perky breasts and a curvy, solid buttocks. The male strand body equivalent is slender, tan and muscular.
  7.  http://fortross.net/__media__/js/netsoltrademark.php?d=videonudism.com that individuals need to pursue and reach a specific body to visit and enjoy the beach is total bullshit.
  8.  Beach body weight decrease advertising trying to profit from body shaming
  9.  While the sand body is about looking attractive in a swimsuit, the media and marketing are just like good at telling folks what they have to look like to be naked in public. Whether it's implied nudity or full frontal, it is normally a female model with the best body" and flawless skin attempting to sell us something or capture the male gaze.
  10.  Sexualized nudity is utilized to sell. But in marketing there is only one version of sexy and once more, it's nobody's job or duty to fit someone else's or society's idea of sexy!
  11.  We all just need to enjoy the fucking plage.
  12.  2. Nudists are heavy and http://www.girlmeets.com/__media__/js/netsoltrademark.php?d=voy-zone.com http://powengineeringinc.com/__media__/js/netsoltrademark.php?d=ournudism.com by promoting an unhealthy lifestyle.
  13.  In a recent blog post, I explained how well-being anxieties about strangers are really just another kind of fat-shaming.
  14.  Someone's weight does not define health. Being fat does not unexpectedly require someone to disclose their health problems to anyone. Most naturists comprehend and respect others' right to privacy with regard to health as well as the right to do what you want with your own body.
  15.  Being fat or unhealthy is not a failure. Weight or size doesn't determine someone's worth or whether they deserve to be accepted or loved as a human being.
  16.  Body Positivity is for ALL bodies!
  17.  3.
  18.  At some stage, female attractiveness standards started ordering that women must be hairless. While men's hair can be a sign of manliness or masculinity, female body hair is considered gross, filthy and unfeminine.
  19.  In the last few years there's definitely been an increase in body-favorable / feminist activism motivating women to grow their hair out (IF they need to) and to not feel ashamed about it.
  20.  Body favorable drawing saying pubic hair is completely fine
  21.  Still, a number of people feel the need to impose their own tastes or shame others for having hair.
  22.  This really is the FKK naturist doctrine on body hair:
  23.  Got a personal opinion on body hair? Great, keep it yourself and do what you desire with your own body hair.
  24.  4. Nude folks? Genitals? Ew, I don't need to see that.
  25.  Body shame continues to be a big issue as it pertains to particular body parts and their natural functions. We still have those old puritan spiritual values that held the body to be obscene.
  26.  This problem is also tied up with sexual shame. Folks are taught to conceal their sex organs. In schools, most are still instructed to ignore their sexual urges with abstinence only sex education. They truly are left to imagine what actual naked bodies appear to be. Or http://ecolub.com.ua/uz_redirect.php?url=http://nudist-young.com get an entirely unrealistic notion from Internet porn.
  27.  And so, the disgust.
  28.  The Ew, I don't need to see that comments frequently come up around public events like the World Naked Bike Ride when hundreds of cyclists flood the streets to protest against oil dependency.
  29.  There's a simple solution for those who don't need to see: Simply. Don't. Look.
  30.  5. Women's breasts are sexual, so girls shouldn't be walking around topless.
  31.  Women's breasts will not be sex organs. Their primary function will be to feed infants.
  32.  Absolutely. And yet we have not prohibited feet from being seen in public.
  33.  Women's breasts are always sexualized and objectified for benefit. Yet society shames the woman who dares to breastfeed her child in a public place. Policemen arrest and shame women for trying to enjoy a park while topfree the same way men do.
  34.  Breastfeeding and Sexualized Breasts in Advertisements
  35.  The actual reason girls can't walk around topfree like men, in most areas, is absolute sexism.
  36.  The Free the Nipple movement has attracted a gigantic amount of attention to the equality problem. However the law still lags behind, and attitudes still should shift.
  37.  Here's an insightful quote from Laura Dodsworth, author of Bare Reality, about the female body getting censored and shamed: It Is not what we should show of our bodies, but who gets to decide what may be shown, in what way and where, that's ultimately revealing of women's place in the world.
  38.  So that is my short list! Please share in the remarks.
