In everyday life, we are bombarded by curated images that suggest only certain bodies deserve to be seen. Clothing often acts as a tool for "fixing" these perceived flaws—shaping, hiding, or accentuating parts of ourselves to meet a social standard.
When clothed, we use fashion to hide our perceived flaws or accentuate our assets. This creates an environment of comparison. In a naturist setting—such as a dedicated beach, resort, or club—you see bodies of every conceivable shape, age, size, and level of ability.
