IMHO, the clothesfree.com forum is probably the best nudist/naturist web site on the Internet with the exception of maybe this forum. I have to preface my comments with the fact that I am a lifetime member of the International Naturists Association which run this site.
Between the excellent naturist picture galleries, the [deleted re: site under review].com TV broadcasts, and the extensive forums discussing every possible topic in naturism, this site represents the length and breadth of naturism today. It far surpasses the AANR bulletin boards which have sparse participation (mostly because they are restricted to members only). This site reaches the general public with education about the naturist movement and naturists in their varied activities. I haven't seen a single photo on this site I would deem "exhibitionist" although some's definition of exhibitionism may be different than mine. I think the INA does more to attract a younger naturist audience than any other site on the Internet. I don't hesitate to direct non-nudists to this site for information.
INA President, Cory M and Webmaster, Corkey S go to great lengths to police this site to prevent it from devolving into a place for porn disguised as nudism or the bickering anarchy among nudists that is rec.nude. As for questionable links, this is the Internet. This means that no matter what site you run or how well you police it, eventually you will run into links to things that offend you. The old six degrees of separation applies to websites. You are never more than three or four links away from a porn site no matter where you start.
In any event, I highly recommend this site. The only thing these guys may be guilty of is trying to make a living off naturism and as a capitalist, my hat is off to them. I hope they make a billion, zillion dollars at it.
Take care and ... Keep it Bare !!! - veal http://www.vealj.com/naturist.html

Hi Veal:
Thanks for your post, I really agree with your well thought out comments, everyone is entitled to their opinion, but I was a bit surprised by Cheri's comments on [deleted re: site under review].com.com.
I enjoy the Nudes in the News webcast on [deleted re: site under review].com quite a bit, it is done in the nude in a tasteful way I think, I find it more "hip" and appealing to a younger generation of Nudists. I have not found it to be particularly exhibitionist; it is in the nude and typically covers clubs and nudist events like Bare to Breakers, The Nude bike rides etc., which I find interesting to see covered in this way. Being nude in public is seen as exhibitionist by many, but I appreciate INA's efforts to push the envelope a bit past perhaps what traditionally has been considered nudist topics. A lot of the traditional nudist organizations seem a bit stuck in the past; it is all well and good, but I appreciate the efforts of the INA to use the internet and go to new territory, in the nude of course.
I joined the INA to have access to the Nudes in the News show; I think they are onto something that will grow news on demand for a very specific audience. I don't if they are making money with the site or not, if they are there is nothing wrong with that, hopefully it leads to more clubs, and more people becoming nudists. I have not chased down all the links on the site, but have not found anything I found to be out of order their, if there is I am sure an email to the Web master would have it removed.
In any case, the power of the net is such that anyone can surf over, check out the free preview site, and the site in general and come to your own conclusions.

(Looking forward to the day CNN has a nude version¡ till then rock on Cory M and the INA team.)
I will be keeping it as Bare as I can...

Apart from this site to which I signed up recently and which I like very very much indeed, the other favorite of mine is www.happynature.com. The site is maintained by a lady who has a real taste for art and you can find there among others poems, a guestbook and really tasteful photo's which depict the beauty of the human body (for those who have doubts: I said "tasteful" and that means not even close to porn!!!). I guess that for those who are nudists but have a partner who has has doubts about it, the site is really worth seeing it for showing how beautiful nudism is. But in fact it is IMHO a site worth seeing anyway...nudists and non nudists alike.

I would have to say my favorite nudist sites would have to be www.ynai.com. It has some good message boards and the site is very focused on young nudists. The other is this site. And the third would be the afore mentioned www.clothesfreefourms.com.
Naturally, Dennis

I guess if I had to choose 1 site and only one, I'd have to choose Naturists Family Network. I know I'll get some all riled up here but.....
NFN is a couples site. You must join as a couple. The administrator and his wife have become friends of ours. We met them last year in Palm Springs. They are a great couple, a naturists family and have many of the same philosophies and principles we do.
The board is civil, friendly and has lots of good naturist advice, a good exchange of ideas and travel information. The moderator and administrator work hard at keeping the trolls and trouble makers out of the forums. That in itself is important to us.
This site is a close first in that it has many of the same qualities of NFN but not near as many female members posting. Though it isn't a pre-requisite, female members, it is nice to have many of them so that my wife feels like contributing as well.
Clothes Free Forums or INA.....We've been members for several years now and it's gone through some changes. Some good, some not so good. Moderation has helped but at times, the moderators need moderating. There are lots of trolls and some trouble makers over there and it makes for some heated topics and some civil unrest on the message boards.
Just my buck, 95's worth.

The age of the "nudie cutie" is over. Pacific Invasion has plans to produce two nudist themed films, innovative and edgy, over the next two years.

This is a site by a former member of the TNS, who has some good tips on nude cycling as well as leaning on left-of-field humour.
