Welcome to the home page of American Naturist Youth, a contact group for naturists/nudists or those interested in the lifestyle. It's got to be obvious that there's a real shortage of naturist web pages by people 30 and under on the Net. "Generation-X," they have dubbed us, but what we should really be is a generation that embraces social nudity and it's many benefits. I have noticed in all my web-surfing, that, despite my own personal experiences to the contrary, nudity is indeed accepted among a greater percentage of youth today (18 +, at least) than I had anticipated.

I am part of the AANR Speakers Bureau and the Mentor program. I've held various offices in the Southwestern Sunbathing Association and in the Eastern Sunbathing Association (2 of the AANR regions in which I have lived). The reluctant partner brochure, reprinted below, has had more than four printings with requests from the USA, Canada, and Europe.

The Northwest Nudist Association (NWNA) represents one of seven regions in the American Association of Nude Recreation (AANR). Nudists who live in Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Montana and Alaska are members of the NWNA/AANR. There are 20 nudist clubs affiliated with the NWNA. More than 230 AANR affiliated clubs across the country provide a network of places that provide clothes-free activities. Two officers of AANR, President Pat Brown and Secretary-Treasurer Mike Parker, are from NWNA clubs.
