So young that I can not remember. My maternal grandparents were practical and frugal, and that set the attitude towards clothing. Do not get your clothes dirty. “If you’re going to play in the mud, take your clothes off.”
As a young child, I had a vitamin D deficiency, and there were two options, cod liver oil (yuk) and more sunshine. Since sunlight was free and my parents didn’t have to force me to take it, playing naked was the solution.
Being raised in the rural Lower Mainland of BC, most of it was rural then, researching (hiking) with your playmates (boys and girls) was the common action (no sports fields), in case you got too warm, you went skinny-dipping in the next creek, no huge deal.
As a youngster I didn’t have a bathing suit or a tuxedo. “Why purchase something which you’ll hardly ever use?” Visiting the beach was a special occasion, maybe two times annually, and when we did, it was to one end of the seashore. Mom had a bathing suit (the only one in the family). Dad went in the water in his panties. Granny brought another house dress to wear in the water. Grandpa, my brother and myself went in the water naked but dressed on the beach.
Would you think that my family was really spiritual at this time?

They were, but “small attire” meant don’t flaunt your wealth, not hide what God created, your body. When I was a teenager/young adult there were lots of places in the Lower Mainland that we would go to and party and skinny dip, but most of them have become regional parks now. My first wife did not have a problem with nudity, she’d strip anytime and everywhere. I was overly conservative.
When I was dating my second wife, Germaine, I in invited her to Wreck Beach. The answer was “I Will go, but I’m wearing a bathing suit.” While chasing one of my sons, she fell out of her top, and off it came. About 10 minutes after, “What the hell.” and away came the rest. The subsequent year the climb/hike became a difficulty for Germaine, so we looked for http://nudismhot.com . We found and joined the old Sunny Trails Club in Surrey, and have been part of organized nudism ever since.
We are likely not accurate Nudists/ Naturists because we actually believe that nakedness is natural and not sexual. They really don’t, or there won’t be so many rules to prove that http://voy-zone.com isn’t. Do not do this or that, or don’t wear this or that, because it might seem to be sexual. More on this at an other time.
