a not-so-human characteristic: nude

'North Carolina Hates Boobs' - A common headliner in the media today. Why? It appears that the state of North Carolina is on the verge of passing a bill that makes it illegal for women to be topless in public. Also, theres a conflict in defining exactly what is considered 'topless'. A nip slip, too much cleavage, a quick flash, or full blown boobies out? One thing we do know is that such women who dare bare the nipples will be punished up to six months imprisonment.
About 13 hours and 23 minutes away is Bare Oaks Family Naturist Park in East Gwillimbury, Canada. Here families gather in the wilderness, up in cottage country, to partake in numerous recreational activities, BBQ, and camp. Oh, all in the nude! Butt naked.
Bare oaks naturist park states that every guest will "experience traditional naturist values in a modern setting" And that their "creed is so much more than just taking your clothes off. It is a life philosophy with physical, psychology, environmental, social and moral benefits".
I have often contemplated attending Bare Oaks. It would be an experience of a life time, and also extremely terrifying. Its weird how the most natural and primitive action - baring it all - feels the furthest away from normal. Even so far away from normal that it is being rendered a punishable act. When push comes to shove, doesn't the United States have more concerns then an old pair of saggy boobs? Its only human.
