Clothing optional camps

The meaning of clothing optional camps is closely related with the meanings of naturism and nudism. They are similar in meaning but generally refer to different things. These terms mean a cultural and political movement involved in social nudity and they are those who practice and, promote and defend this social nudity which can be performed both in private and specially destined places for nudity and public spaces. There have been introduced several other terms some new specific terms as "social nudity" as well as public nudity, and a very new term which is highly used "clothes-free", in order to replace the already existing terms of nudism and naturism. 
This movement contains a vast series of alternatives which include "naturism", "nudism", "Freikörperkultur (FKK)", the "open beach society" and of course  already old but widespread "public lands/public nudity" support. Because the history of nudity is dates back many years ago there are a lot of controversy in common themes for all those groups and societies, different issues they have to face and of course another type of philosophy. Each separate group has its own interpretation and motivation of practicing nudity. Even the usage of the terms connected with nudism is treated differently depending on the region and geographical variety.
For example in USA the people use the term nudism, but those from Europe prefer more often the term naturism. The most clothing optional camps are based on long established family friendly or related relations and not on sexual variations. The most attractive fact in these societies or groups are the free equality both men and women obtain when leaving down the clothes and enjoying the freedom. That is why most of the people use also the term "clothes free" in order to describe his or her state. There are some rules to be followed when becoming a member of such kind of a naturist or nudist community (club, resort or group), and namely they can insist on total nudity (in order to see if people really came there to feel free and not after some hidden emotions and excitement, or sexual relationships, and some additional reasons).
There is also some controversy about the resorts that call themselves "clothing optional" and namely that this types of resorts do not provide complete nudity and fails to support naturist principles, another theme for discussion is about “forcibly nude" which is considered by the nudists themselves a close world better to say a restricted one which does not support nudity and where nudity is a forbidden value. The nudists get very angry when somebody refers them as the nudist colony that is why this term is excluded from most of the usages.
Modern social nudity is based on the ancient customs and tradition, it is better to be called a revival of those traditions, it is not a pervasive vision of the world and people who practice nudity are not mentally ill.  It is know that the Inuit people of the Arctic practiced nudism in their igloos and the locals of Tierra del Fuego were walking almost naked when outside was snowy and the temperature did not allow them to do this just because they were mentally ill. There are very few examples which came to us from the past but they serve as proves of such practicing and this means that treating people who practice nudism and those who join clothing optional camps are not mentally disabled, this is just their way of being of perceiving the world around them and a response to those who consider them perverse.
