In Thailand, naturism as a lifestyle is increasingly accepted as healthy or at least harmless. This simple infographic is trying to explain what naturists have in common with exhibitionists and swingers. Or what swingers and exhibitionists have in common with naturists.

We would disagree, both Swinging and Exhibitionism has nothing in common with Naturism, they are different in both the objectives and ideologies, nudity is just a by-product of the former two.
Have to agree with you Sherif
Thanks for your reply! I hope we get a lot of opinions here. C’mon guys n’ girls!
🙂
Agree with Sherif.
I see absolutely no connection between Swingers, Exhibitionism and Naturism. If you use this model, then the recording of a porn video can also be linked to naturism, and I see no coincidence otherwise.
So what other things should also be linked to naturism? – a shower maybe?
Thanks for your input. Of course some naturists are swingers. And some are probably exhibitionists. I wonder if the designer wanted to show that since we share being naked we are somehow the same? Or maybe he/she wanted to show that just because we may share the technical detail that we are naked it does NOT mean that we are the same?
What if the circles said “Naturist” – “Christians” – “Democrats” and in the middle it says “Believers”.
Where do you think I found it?
In this way you can prove anything, it is only the imagination that sets the limit.
In my opinion, the common point between naturists, exhibitionists and swingers is nudity and nudism. What differs naturism from nudism is that naturism is a non-sexual practice of nudity in common with respect for others and for nature.
Thank you for sharing your opinion.
If I imagine the circles as a physical space and there are people in all three circles then personally I would move over to the far left of the naturist space simply because I don’t like that the other groups are naked for a sexual purpose. It makes me feel uncomfortable.
me too

The diagram only explain things in common, but does not mean 3 types are equal.
Among naturist, exhibitionist, and swinging, there is one thing in common – naked.
Between naturist and exhibitionist, there are two things in common – naked and nature
Between exhibitionist and swinging, there are two things in common – naked and sexual excitement
Between naturist and swinging, there are two things in common – naked and private
If someone is both naturist and exhibitionist, then he/she may get naked and enjoy feeling of nature, but sit in non-private area.
Hmmm…
A naturist is someone who enjoys living a nude life style. One who feels not only comfortable but at their most natural self when they are nude
An exhibitionist is a person who enjoys using their nudity as an expression to gain a response from another individual. You can’t be an exhibitionist without and audience. So where is the common denominator between Exhibitionist and Naturist? Well it is simply being Naked. One, enjoys it for self and the other uses it for others.
Swingers are people who enjoy the sexual realm. They understand the varying spectrum of attraction and transfers of sexual energy. Their connection to Naturism is more surface than a deep philosophical meaning. The removal of clothing and seeing the naked body removes various levels in courtship. Unfortunately it is a misguided sense of comradely by swingers who assume that if you are already naked and comfortable being naked around them, then you “MIGHT” be open to sexual play which as we know is not the case. Now I am not saying every swinger views nudity like this but I do feel swingers feel more secure in a naturist environment to play than in a textile one where more social queues and nuance is needed to know if someone else is a swinger.
Truth is a Naturist can be both a swinger and an exhibitionist as well. A swinger can be both a naturist and an exhibitionist and an Exhibitionist can be both a naturist and a Swinger. Quite frankly There is nothing wrong with being all three or only one but the individual must act appropriately in the type of company they are in. If you are among Naturists then keep your swinger side at bay.
That sums up the whole thing very well, Sandman.
ENJOYING THE CREATIONS OF GOD AS IT WAS CREATED IS THE BEST WAY TO LEAD LIFE
“ENJOY LIFE TO THE MAXIMUM BUT DONOT HURT ANYONE AND GIVE RESPECT TO THE FEELING”
LOVE TO MAKE FRIENDS WITH LIKE MINDED PEOPLE ACROSS THE WORLD AND PRACTICE NATURISM
The obvious connection between naked, exhibition and swinging is that all three activities are usually undertaken nude! However none of them are reliant on the other. Some nudists may be exhibitionists and/or swingers, and vice versa. It is an individual choice that people make, not an essential interconnection. They can be exclusive or inclusive depending on personal decisions.
