Aug 11, 2022One bit of advice, wear appropriate clothing, surely the advice should be wear nothing where ever possible, as that is the only state in which the bodies natural cooling system works, you sweat, it forms a film on the skin, immediately evaporates causing a cooling effect, when you are wearing clothes, you sweat, it soaks into your clothes, you stay hot and sweaty, I'm already fed up with people wearing clothes telling me they are hot!!!! Of course you are ffs!!!

I agree with you. However some people believe that in hot, sunny dry climates, like the Sahara and Arabia, believe that l loose, light color clothing reflects enough sunlight to make someone cooler. There seems to be more agreement that in hot, humid climates, the less clothing the better. I often think that as Europeans began to settle in tropical climates, everyone would have been better off if the settlers had adopted the minimal clothing of the native population, instead of encouraging the native population to adopt clothing standards that were more appropriate for cooler climates.ReactReply - BEBelfastMan81Aug 13, 2022
UK and especially Northern Ireland is far behind the Stone Age about nudism.

Were you referring to me or Belfastman81?
Admittedly, I don't live in the UK and have only visited once for a week and never got beyond London.
However, I have seen numerous posts here and on other boards stating that nudity is legal in the UK, even if not widely accepted.ReactReply - EAEarlDAug 14, 2022[quote]Im in the UK. Hes talking bullshit.[/quote] That was my thinking as well but I didnt cut to the chase as you didReactReply

noodengr2Aug 14, 2022[quote]One bit of advice, wear appropriate clothing, surely the advice should be wear nothing where ever possible, It isn't just that side of the Pond that officials fail to provide simply solutions to problems. Newscasters sit in shirts and ties and jackets and tell people to dress cool. The weatherman will do on location plug about the heat, way overdressed for the heat. Them and politicians should lead by example and bare all on hot days.ReactReply - BRBrianOriginal PosterAug 14, 2022I thought that nudity was legal in the UK.[/quote] Well, let's say its not illegal but that doesn't mean you can go about naked, they just call it a public order offence, behaviour LIKELY to cause offence, regardless whether it has or not!!!ReactReply
- MEMemberAug 14, 2022Article from a French news source about the UK heat wave and nude shopping:
https://www.jeanmarcmorandini.com/article-508036-canicule-en-grande-bretagne-il-est-possible-de-faire-son-shopping-seins-nus-ou-entierement-nu-a-condition-de-ne-pas-avoir-l-intention-de-choquer-de-provoquer-et-sans-connotation-sexuelle-regardez.html.
It basically says that due to the unprecedented heat wave, some stores are allowing their customers to shop with little or no clothing; as long as they don't have the intention to offend, it's ok. It concludes that there must be a balance between freedom of expression of naturists and the rights of textiles to be free of harassment. It doesn't specify where in the UK these stores are.
I'm sure this is not wide spread, but a step in the right direction.ReactReply - STStevieLornaAug 14, 2022[quote]Article from a French news source about the UK heat wave and nude shopping: https://www.jeanmarcmorandini.com/article-508036-canicule-en-grande-bretagne-il-est-possible-de-faire-son-shopping-seins-nus-ou-entierement-nu-a-condition-de-ne-pas-avoir-l-intention-de-choquer-de-provoquer-et-sans-connotation-sexuelle-regardez.html.
