Nudists in Spain are campaigning against an influx of clothed tourists on their beaches
‘People that are naked don’t want to end up with their photos on social media’
Accidentally stumbled onto a nude beach once. Got nude to not feel left out. I don't even take my shirt off outside in the summer because I'm so self conscious.
Either fit in or leave.
This happened to me and my friends as well but on arrival we got instantly yelled at by nude people for not being nude. It's not like we were staring at them but why is it so bad if we wouldn't be naked? (Assuming we mind our own business)
The reasoning is that if you allow clothed people on the beach, you'll get more and more clothed people until naturists are a minority and don't feel comfortable getting naked. And because naturists don't have a lot of places to practice it, they are quite protective of the few places they do have.
Yes it's bad. If people begin wearing clothes at a nude beach, it won't be a nude beach for very long.
I don't know. I would just assume if you're clothed, you don't really need to be on a nude beach, and I'm sure there are enough pervs sitting around watching.
There's really no reason to be on a nude beach unless you're going to participate. Usually there's a clothed beach right next to it.
I want the nude police!
Brother, you're wearing clothes? Either take them off or get off the beach!
Ma'am, that's a 50€ fine for wearing clothes here.
I think public indecency laws against JUST nudity are silly.
Personally I find a person who have willingly "fermented" themselves by not showering to be more indecent, and the majority socially ostracize said individuals, but it's still not illegal, nor should it be, and neither should public nudity.

In nude saunas the rule is you have to sit on a towel. If you're worried about people sitting on stuff with their dirty ass then it seems that should be the law.
Besides, what disease can you get by sitting with clothes on where someone previously sat naked? I don't think it's a disease issue, just gross. But people sitting in dirty/soiled clothing is the same thing (arguably potentially worse) and that's not illegal.
Nah, I already know that people would use this to "accidentally"/secretly rub their genitals on you. People are doing this already with their clothes on.
That's my kind of people!
Protest the pants off them!

Should that also apply to all the public spaces where clothing is mandatory right now?
I'm sure everyone can take their clothes off. This is in no way discriminatory. Also, the majority of "natural highlights" is meant for clothed people to enjoy, I'm sure we can concede a few places to the nudists (who are very welcoming to all people, provided they're able to take their clothes off in the dedicated nude places).
And if you can't take your clothes off, your troubles are elsewhere and you should work on them before you take away the nudists' beaches. I believe the prudes and scared-of-nakedness evangelicals have a whole country they took away from indigenous people to sunbathe fully clothed in.
You don't need to be a nudist, just gotta be naked.
There is no lack of beaches in Spain.
Considering there's literally hundreds of kilometers of regular beaches equally beautiful in the region, seeing the small and usually remote nudist locals being invaded and hearing how "they keeping these places is a difficult notion" feels just petty
At least here there are dedicated nude beaches at the sea, rivers and many lakes.
It's really no harder than to make tourists respect the culture and traditions of the places they are visiting.
...so yeah, fucking impossible, probably.
There are many more "natural highlights" only for clothes animals. It's not that difficult to find them.
