It was difficult getting past the early arguments in this post. Nudists do not "take their clothes off" for pay or otherwise. Nudist simply prefer not to put clothes on. So, yes, this article was printed for attention, not accuracy.

But, you hit the nail by describing the number of nudists that have succeeded in finding a profit model for nudism. They, indeed should be classified and admired as professional nudists/naturists.

You, my friend, like me, are no amateur. I forward the proposition that we are "journeyman nudists" or naturists, if you prefer. We all have run into the amateurs in this community.

We know the ropes, but don't have the credentials necessary to be a professional.

Stay Safe,Stay Bare!

In my humble opinion ; It is a lifestyle - no more, no less !

However, the newspaper in question, has ' always ' had a policy and philosophy of ' never let the truth get in the way ' within their publication.

As to myself - having become a successful and sought after model for Life Drawing, having done a few photo shoots too, and having been approached to be an actor with a naked role in a New Zealand movie . . . . . . . I have ' never ' thought of myself as being a professional ; except for when it comes to how I approach each modelling session.

I'm not about to email the IRD and the Government though - I'm extremely happy with where I am at !
