Joe G.

Born and raised in Germany, now living in the USA. I wouldn't say I was raised as a nudist, but at the same time, it was totally normal to be nude. Been to many nude beaches as a kid/teenager/adult and just view being nude as something natural and normal. Nothing to be ashamed of. I use the terms 'nude' and 'naked' interchangeably, even though some people are of the opinion that they have a different meaning. To me, they don't – they both mean 'no clothes', which is what counts for me.
