To embed The British Attitude towards Nudity on Your Site: Copy and Paste the Code Below
A few weeks back we hosted a survey on this blog asking our British readers how they feel about public nudity, ahead of International Nude Day, which occurs annually on July 14th. We’re sure you’ll agree the statistics it reveals are interesting, and perhaps even a little surprising too.
Visiting key websites related to both the worldwide and UK naturism movements revealed facts which are remarkable on their own (for example; the stereotypically prudish UK has more naturist-friendly clubs and resorts than the Netherlands, Spain and Italy according to the Naturist Federation), yet some of our survey findings surprised us too.
Here’s a summary of what we discovered:
- Men are four times more likely than women to get naked in public;
- For around 50% of individuals (both sexes) that have never worn their ‘birthday suit’ outside, being body conscious was the reason cited;
- Only 10% of those who have been naked in public stripped off to raise money for a charity (we thought this figure would be much higher!);
- More than half of Brits feel that there should be more opportunities to ditch clothing in public and
- 89% of those who have visited a naked-friendly spa preferred the experience over visiting a regular one.
We hope you like the infographic above – if so, please do share it with your friends via Facebook and Twitter, or embed it into your own blog or website using the code above.
Spa Seekers would like to thank everyone who took the time to answer our survey, and those naturist organisations that helped to spread the news of our investigation via social channels.

Good work! You’ve put quite a bit of effort into this and it shows! We in the nudist/naturist community appreciate such good reporting about our lifestyle, something which is less common than the confused ramblings usually seen in the media.
Thanks again for the great job you’ve done!
I have been a nudist since I diceevsrod it by myself when I was about 12, almost 50 years ago. My wife seldom participates in social nudism with me, so I am lumped into that category of Single Males . On occassion she has visited other nudist parks with me, but just cannot get into the social opportunities that real nudism offers. Regardless, I do not let that prevent me from visiting various nudist parks. I understand the stereotype that goes along with any male wishing to spend as day in the park, so I work with it, and not against it. Hidden River Nudist Resort is where I primarily visit on a regular basis. I have been using this park for about the last 10 years. But before my first visit, I made contact with the owner, by email and the telephone. I wanted to make a good impression and develop a bond of trust. On my first visit, I spent several hours with the owner, introducing myself, my background, and answering any & all questions. Whenever I plan a visit to the park, I always notify the staff of my upcoming visit, and most importantly, I obey all the rules!
