I don't know about "raving sex freaks." I did work with a guy who insisted that it was all sweetness and light in the day but at night nudists all scurried off to hump away. Nudists as swingers. Being naked in the day was just prep for it. Would not be dissuaded because that's what he wanted to be true.

Definitely a lot of people in my area consider it to be perversion. It would be enough to get you fired from a sensitive position dealing with children. Even if the employer had no issues, there are parents who would raise hell and put a prop under it. A young single white female who was public about being a nudist would probably be subjected to serious harassment from males and other females - in different ways.

There are the fundamentalists who are very Puritan in their POV and consider it as sin. (Got a lot of those where I live.) Seeing nudity contaminates you and children are the most vulnerable. There are self declared feminists who consider nudity to be inherently exploitative of women and an exposed penis to be a rape threat. Nothing they can do about it as long as we stay in our closets but they want to keep us restricted to our ghettos because of all the damage nudity would cause if it were let loose.

There are textiles who don't object to nudity but deny the possibility - or even desirability - of nonsexual nudity. Since nudity is a source of sexual pleasure to them, why would they ever change?

The northeast is having the winter storm of the century. But wherever you are, you don't have it as bad as Mt. Washington.
