Proving Pride's pointwww.planetnude.co In response to an anti-gay response

This is a "good" article. But I think it misses how AANR's "support" for the LGBT community will disappear come July 1st at midnight. Much like many other corporations for this & other disenfranchised communities celebrations. Further there is a deafening silence in their response to bigots.

I hear you. If you haven’t yet, I hope you make sure to cast your ballot this week for AANR’s next President. Voting ends soon! Support for and outreach to the full breadth of the nudist community is very much on the ballot: The changes you’d like to see are part of Linda Weber’s vision for AANR.

And if you’re not a member, I am hopeful we can make the changes you’d like to see regardless!

I'm not a member of AANR (since I'm not currently a member of one of the local AANR affiliate, which requires 100% of members to join AANR, resorts). I AM a member of Gay Naturists International and support the Naturist Action Committee (that's done more for nudism than AANR).

AANR TALKS about diversity and inclusion in their blogs (links to follow) but needs to do more than just post something with rainbow colors one month out of the year. And they certainly need to do more for racial diversity than their #IamTheFaceOfNudism campaign. (See if you can spot the problem.) ⬜

A Bold New Plan for a Bold New Age of Nudism - AANRwww.aanr.com “Stuck in the past” is not a qualifier that any movement or organization hopes to acquire, but it’s one that seems to have been attached to nudist clubs and even organizations such as AANR. It’s true ...

I really appreciate your candor, and I don’t disagree with you at all that there’s more that needs to be done. Thank you for sharing your thoughts!
