An English Nudist’s Tropical Legacy
Brazilian naturist pioneer Jorge Bandeira is an admirable activist. In addition to all his work for naturism in Brazil, and all his work as a playwright, actor, producer, theater critic and professor, he also owns and manages a second-hand book and record store in Manaus! I’m privileged to count him as a good friend, and…
Talking about Naturist Fiction
It’s always a pleasure to have a conversation about naturism and naturist fiction. I recently had the opportunity to do just that with Frank Stone, host of the podcast Naked, Nudists and Naturists. Frank is a terrific interviewer who does a solid show, and he’s divided the interview into two parts. The first part came…
Normalizing Nudity to Fight Crime
This is a difficult post to write. It’s about extortion, suicide, and grief. I’m compelled to write it, however, because it’s also about nudity, nude photos, and a perhaps unexpected way for us naturists, nudists and our allies to bring about positive change. Last month, national headlines here in the US declared that a South…
Avocados and the Nude World
It’s the time of year for Super Bowl ads, and there’s a fun one that has a great nude-friendly message. Avocados From Mexico produced an Adam and Eve spoof, “Make It Better,” that reimagines the famous scene in the Garden of Eden and leads to… well, a whole nude world. Eve has bitten into a…
Embodiment and Imagery
As 2022 comes to an end, I reflect back on the Green Man, the ancient European archetypal figure who began to appear in my thoughts and writings last year, and to whom I dedicated a series of posts this past summer. The Green Man can be seen as an embodiment of the male archetypes. He…
The Archetypes in the Green Man
This is the eighth and final mystery reading in the Green Man series – brief texts that illuminate aspects of masculinity through nature while exploring the major masculine archetypes. A central truth about the archetypes is that they all reside within each one of us. You may feel more drawn toward one than the others,…
The Dream of Love and Freedom
This is the seventh mystery reading in the Green Man series – brief texts that illuminate aspects of masculinity through nature while exploring the major masculine archetypes. It’s a different kind of mystery reading, because it’s the narration of a dream: In the dream, the old man spoke to me of love, and of freedom.…
A Mystery Reading for The King Archetype
This is the sixth mystery reading in the Green Man series – brief texts that illuminate aspects of masculinity through nature while exploring the major masculine archetypes.

A Mystery Reading for The Wizard Archetype
This is the fifth mystery reading in the Green Man series – brief texts that illuminate aspects of masculinity through nature while exploring the major masculine archetypes. Stag and Serpent The stag and the serpent don’t grow without shedding. Whether they shed antlers or skin, these animals are masters of transformation, striding and slithering through…
A Mystery Reading for The Father Archetype
This is the fourth mystery reading in the Green Man series – brief texts that illuminate aspects of masculinity through nature while exploring the major masculine archetypes.

A Mystery Reading for The Lover Archetype
This is the third mystery reading in the Green Man series – brief texts that illuminate aspects of masculinity through nature while exploring the major masculine archetypes.

A Mystery Reading for The Warrior Archetype
This is the second mystery reading in the Green Man series – brief texts that illuminate aspects of masculinity through nature while exploring the major masculine archetypes. Lightning and Wind Humankind’s first experience with glass was probably the discovery of the filament-like unique shapes that result when lightning strikes the beach. These shapes, half buried…
Mysteries of the Green Man
The Green Man Group recently began at my local naturist park. As it is currently run, it is a once-a-month hour-long session of Kundalini yoga for men, with themes such as creativity or acceptance, loosely based on movement through the chakras. The same instructor runs a parallel group for women called Goddess Gathering. I have…
Naturist News from Brazil
Did you know that Brazil is the fifth largest country in the world, in both size and population? Personally I wish everyone knew a lot more about Brazil, a nation whose rich culture and fascinating history should command more of the world’s attention. I’ve had the good fortune to travel to Brazil several times and…
Traveling with the Nomadic Nudists
It’s always a pleasure to discover the work of another naturist writer, and Scott Lunt is a great one to discover. He’s a professional advertising copywriter who began writing for NUSA SUN magazine about traveling with his wife Julie to nudist destinations around the country – all while decidedly *not* retired! His new book, Sun…
