It is always so difficult to decide what to wear when you go out for dinner !

We had the pleasure of visiting Agde many years ago Pedro, when it was simply a sense of freedom to be naked in a semi-urban environment. Marvellous, it was. It appears to have been overtaken by swingers and gone very, very downmarket. Even if we accept the oft repeated claim (untrue IMHO) that it's just a small section of the 'city' where these sort of things go on, it taints and downgrades naturism as a lifestyle.

It makes it synonymous with 'sex', the very image we've fought hard to cast off for decades.

For me, naturism is a simple, personal freedom to be nude in a semi-urban environment, on the beach or in the sea. (We're long time Vera Playa users, in case you're wondering). It is a pleasure and privilege to understand 'pure' naturism, and with that comes responsibilities to uphold some sense of that purity of the lifestyle, and the freedom to swim and sunbathe without the restrictions of clothing.

Be not too liberal; it doth belong
to dogs alone to fuck the whole day long."

In my time, I have visited most European naturist resorts, and the only one that seems to have gone this way is Cap D'agde.

As I mentioned once before, my first really big naturist experience was here (with my very young girlfriend, on her first ever holiday without her parents) when we stumbled on the nude beach whilst staying at the nearby campsite at Marseillan Plage. I doubt if she would have been quite so enthusiastic to spend the whole days naked with me, if that had been today!

Mind, you today there are these nasty old men with digital cameras, that were not around then either!

If this would be true, all those people can't explain why so many famillies, even with children, are going to Cap d'Agde every year, especially the last 3-5 years when i visited Cap d'Agde. When people don't believe it, take self a look at Cap d'Agde or ask, for example, the camping about it.

I'm not challenging that reality. I am, however, questioning the general perception of Agde as a swingers paradise.

It is that perception the media will pick up on, not the thousands (?) of families who enjoy it each year. The reactionary mainstream media will focus solely on a girl rooting two guys in daylight on a public thoroughfare, and it is images like that which severely damage naturism's 'clean, wholesome, family orientated' image and will reinforce, in the mind of the average Daily Mail reader, that we're all sordid and squalid little exhibitionists.

There is more damage caused by the trio in the photograph to naturism's image, than 1000 families playing volleyball will show it in a positive light.
