Television Shows Present Au Naturel Plotlines
|
Two different shows on two different channels last week presented nudism as mainstream television.
Discovery Health's I'm Pregnant and... series focused on a third generation nudist about to give birth to her first child.
Watch a clip here.
The writers of AMC's Emmy-winning series Mad Men had ad copywriter Peggy, played by Elisabeth Moss, working overtime on a new ad campaign with a newly-hired copywriter who claimed to be a nudist. Saying nudity was a "natural" lifestyle choice, he told Peggy, perhaps a little boorishly, that he can't be creative in such a repressed atmosphere. Eager to get the ad campaign completed, Peggy takes her clothes off and sits down at her typewriter, ready to work.
While these situations may not be the typical nudist experience, kudos to both channels for portraying it as a viable, mainstream lifestyle choice.

It's Volleyball Superbowl Time
|
Labor Day means it's almost time for the Volleyball Superbowl at White Thorn Lodge in Darlington, Pennsylvania. Now in its 40th year, the event is held the week after Labor Day each year. This year's dates are September 8-12 and promises to be bigger and better than ever with special prizes and events. Entrance fees include camping, trailer parking, dances, team entry, full use of club facilities, and much more, plus plenty of volleyball competitions.
Last year, White Thorn's Superbowl was featured in ESPN, The Magazine. The ESPN folks will be back this year to cover this longstanding tradition beloved by nudists from all over.

Spain Tops in Nudist Beach Coastline

Although Spain's first official nudist beach opened just over two decades ago, the country has embraced these areas ever since. Today there are more nudist beaches in Spain per kilometer of coastline than in any other country in the world.
The country's top two beaches, or "playas naturistas," are Vera Playa Natura in Almeria and Lake Negatrin in Cuevas del Campo, Granada.
