The Coach and Horse, a pub in Soho, London, believed to be the first and only pub in the country to have a nudist licence, is under threat of takeover by one of the large chain brands. I think it’s safe to say that a national chain is not going to go along with naked events!
Micky and Bee from campaign group ‘Free the Nipple’ explain what freedom means to them:
A full account of the first Naked Experiment experiment session is now available. Six people (three woman and three men) of various ages, get together for a series of experiments involving nudity in various ways and combinations. What will each of them think of being the only person naked in a group, letting someone else strip them naked, everyone being naked or having to stay naked when everyone else gets dressed?
This is the account of 7 situations involving nudity for one, some or all of the group, interviews afterwards and conclusions drawn from the results. 40+ pages of description with diagrams but no photos.
Well, who would have guessed it?! In this feature video from BBC News Online, the trainee dancers explain why they do it and all the benefits they gain from taking part. Sounds like it is both physically and mentally good for them and should be encouraged!
Fancy a challenge in 2019? Curious about being naked with a lot of other people? Or just brave enough to get completely naked in public to raise some money for charity?
The Great British Skinny Dip is a great opportunity to get a taste of nudism, to push yourself out of your comfort zone and face the challenge of something fun and different.

Lots of people find it psychologically difficult to be naked in front of other people. It can be embarrassing, maybe even humiliating. Most of us experience being naked in front of other people at sports centre/swimming pool/gym locker rooms or during medical appointments, but those are situations where nudity is expected and very much the norm. In the former, it’s common for other people to be naked too which can make it much easier to cope with.
Getting completely naked in a situation where no-one would usually expect to be naked and/or where you are the only one naked and everybody else stays fully clothed can be much more embarrassing and harder to do.
Of course, there are many people out there who are not in the least bit shy, or outright enjoy being seen naked by others, but the majority still struggle with embarrassment and shyness. There are also people out there who get a thrill from the embarrassment.
In this photo, Demi has just experienced letting her friend Sarah strip her completely naked. I think it’s safe to say she found this embarrassing. Sarah seems to be enjoying it though!
