I cannot see how you can read that in my message. I said quite clearly that
change comes about slowly. How do you eat an elephant? answer is a little at
a time.
Change comes about because of lots of things which bring about changes in
the views of society as a whole. Going out nude cycling in full view of the
public and their families is going to bring about calls for toughening up of
the laws, not the reverse and then you see an end to what we have at the
moment; some of the beaches and swims etc.
I favour the approach of persuading more local authorities to have naturist
sections of beaches or allowing clubs to use L.A swimming pools and so on.
The media does in many respects appear to be sympathetic to this life style.
Nudity is less frowned upon than it was ten years ago. Much of this has come
about because more folk go abroad for holidays and think nothing of the
nudity or part nudity they see. Seeing topless women on beaches was a real
surprise ten years or more ago but these days who cares?
What naturism does not need are folk being hauled up into court on a regular
basis as the resulting press will bring about changes in the law.
We all tread a fine line here.
