Today is National Nude Day — The Bare and Naked Truth About This Holiday

Today (July 14) is National Nude Day. Snicker if you must, but to some naked people, this is a real holiday!

They celebrate this day as if it were Christmas. Parties and celebrations of the beauty of the naked body. There are actual communities in the United States, Europe and other places where everyone is fully nude year-round. This is their way of life.

These nudist groups are not perverts, they just celebrate the beauty of the naked body and the fact that you can be free. HA!

Ironically, some of my searches about this day came across T-shirts about celebrating National Nude Day. WTF? Where can you get a National Nude Day T-shirt?

Maybe this day started with the French when "The Fête de la Fédération on July 14, 1790, was a celebration of the unity of the French nation during the French Revolution.

The aim of this celebration was to symbolize peace one year after the storming of the Bastille. The event took place on the Champ de Mars, which was outside Paris.

The place had been transformed on a voluntary basis by the population of Paris itself, in what was recalled as the Journée des brouettes ("Wheelbarrow Day").
A Mass was celebrated by Talleyrand, bishop of Autun. The popular Gen. Lafayette, as captain of the National Guard of Paris and confidant of the king, took his oath to the constitution, followed by King Louis XVI.

After the end of the official celebration, the day ended in a huge four-day popular feast and people celebrated with fireworks, as well as fine wine and running nude through the streets in order to display their great freedom."
