What could be done to get more girls and women into naturism?
Question by Dario W: What could be done to get more girls and women into naturism?
This is an almost age-old question that the naturist and nudist movement in many countries has been trying to figure out. European places don’t seem to have any problems attracting female clientele, but what could be done in English speaking countries like America, UK and Australia to get the women interested? Should naturist resorts and clubs offer things like personalised services, discounted drinks and entry like most nightclubs and textile holiday resorts do?

Advertise,I guess. I’d rather be shot,myself.

I am not gonna run around naked so a bunch of men who are not my husband can walk around with their dumb handles standing tall.
Actually, I think the problem is more that you’d have to change female perception of how the males are going to behave, not make it more enticing for the women.
I’ve actually been to a nudist beach where the people were all there to enjoy naturalism. Manners were very evident, and people attempting to sexualize the nudity and ogle were asked to leave immediately. If I thought I would be going to another place like that, I would love to go regularly.
But I and most of the women I know are all too aware of what an unfortunate number of American men go to such places for. Maybe if there was a character test for entry. *g*
>”Should naturist resorts and clubs offer things like personalised services, discounted drinks and entry like most nightclubs and textile holiday resorts do?”
In California, and various other places in the U.S., charging different prices or providing extra discounted services to one sex, race, religion, or creed and NOT THE OTHERS is entirely illegal.
For example, no night club in California can allow women (for example) or Buddhists (for another example) free entry unless everyone gets free entry. The law is in place to ensure equality of treatment in commercial enterprises.
The recruitment suggestions that you’ve made would make anyone suspicious, wary and intimidated. Just take the pressure off and let it be known that they are welcome to come or not come as they choose and they’ll probably come.
It’s a tough thing to do. Positive messages and advertisements from Nudist Clubs still only attract a few new women every year. Most women get into nudism because of their male counterpart. It is a rare thing to see women, especially younger women, at nude beaches and clubs by themselves unless they have prior experience or visits there and are already comfortable.
Strangely enough, one place I visited a few times this past summer did have a lot of women. In fact, one day there were more women than men. Now, most of these women were older and had been nudists for quite some time, so take that for what it’s worth.
Contrary to another answer, nudist clubs and resorts can offer whatever incentive they want and make their own rules about who pays what. You can’t discriminate who goes to a public nude beach, but a club can do pretty much whatever it wants. It’s a private entity. It can set whatever membership standards and prices it wants.
Clubs need to offer more things for young people to do, not just for women, but for guys too. Horseshoes and Shuffleboard aren’t exactly my favorite things either. However, most nudist clubs are strapped for cash, except some in California and Florida that are able to operate year round. They try to keep admission costs low, but then have to sacrifice on amenities. Many young people claim the cost of nudist clubs are too high already. To be honest, I agree to a certain point, but many of these same people will easily spend $60 a night drinking at a nightclub and think $30 is too high of a price to pay for a day fee at a nudist club.
Most US clubs are more like campgrounds. Personalized services, nightclubs, and discounted drinks wouldn’t really work. There are a few places it might work, but a lot of US clubs are mom and pop operations with rustic camping and a hot tub you pray actually is in working order.
Then there’s the whole self-conscious thing most women have. Most women think they have to look like models to be a nudist. That’s poor thinking. The fact that a lot of women in the sexual services field are now posting their profiles on nudist oriented websites also does not help the cause. Since Nudist Clubhouse and Skinbook have come out, the amount of women making profiles for adult services has greatly increased and it sends a very bad message to women who would legitimately want to try nudism.
Ladies…if this is something you think you want to try, then find a small nudist club, go for a visit, keep your clothes on if you want, and meet some nice people. Most private clubs will waive or severely discount 1st time visit fees, and nudity is rarely mandatory for 1st timers.
