Debate Night: Nudism

From sandy beaches to private resorts, nudism has long been a topic that challenges the line between personal freedom and social norms.

Supporters argue it’s a healthy, natural way of living that encourages body acceptance, fosters equality, and reconnects us with nature. To them, clothes are a societal invention, not a necessity for dignity.

On the other side, critics raise questions about comfort, cultural values, and the potential impact on children or public spaces. They see nudism as clashing with widely held standards of modesty, and believe there are boundaries worth keeping for the sake of community harmony.

This debate will uncover the deeper questions beneath the bare skin: Is nudism a liberating step toward body confidence, or does it undermine social cohesion?

Join us as we strip away the layers (figuratively speaking) to find out.

Participants who wish to speak need to bring a paper and pen.

You are welcome to participate even if you have no prior debating experience.
