**The bare fact is you’ll just have to bear it**
Miss Lonelyhearts, By Maureen Scurfield, Jan. 31, 2026
DEAR .MISS LONELYHEARTS: I thought I married a smart, conservative woman — and now I don’t recognize her. She has gotten in with a bunch of women who are nudists, and two of them have indoor pools.
I’m not a nudist by any stretch. I wear a robe in the bathroom and around the house and boxer shorts in the bedroom. I’m not ashamed of my body and the equipment God gave me as a man, but I am not strutting around naked in our house.
My wife and I have had a good sex life up to now, but she’s laughing at my modesty lately.
Since my wife has started hanging out with this group, I found out two of them are also naked in their homes whenever they want, and some of them have young kids...

**INF-FNI engages Therme Erding on protection of naturist space**
by Edwin Kilby, January 2026
The International Naturist Federation (INF-FNI), working in close cooperation with the German Naturist Federation (DFK), has written to Therme Erding in Munich following reports that the world-famous spa and sauna complex is substantially reducing its textile-free (naturist) capacity in favour of expanded clothed areas.
In its letter, INF-FNI expressed concern that such changes represent a retreat from Germany’s long-standing tradition of Freikörperkultur (FKK), which has been an accepted and valued part of social life for decades. The Federation highlighted recent evidence from European surveys showing growing interest in naturism, particularly among younger adults, and underlined the cultural, social and wellbeing benefits of non-sexual social nudity.
Therme Erding has responded by emphasising its commitment to diversity, noting its plans to build new saunas within the nudist area and stating that it seeks to accommodate both clothed and unclothed guests. While this reply does not address all of the concerns raised, INF-FNI welcomes the opportunity for dialogue...

**This Idaho trail leads to 104°F pools where winter steam rises through ancient cedars**
By John, 26/01/2026
his Idaho forest corridor leads to three steaming pools where 104°F water meets winter snow. Jerry Johnson Hot Springs sits 2.6 miles from Highway 12, free to all who earn their soak through towering cedars and pines.
The trailhead appears at mile marker 152, just across from Warm Springs Pack Bridge. Parking holds 20-30 vehicles in the plowed lot, with overflow along the roadside. January brings 1-3 feet of snow, making micro-spikes or snowshoes essential for the 1-2 hour round-trip hike.
The cedar corridor to warmth
Western Red Cedar dominates this ancient forest, some trees reaching 300-500 years old. Morning light filters green through the canopy around 7:30am. Warm Springs Creek runs alongside the trail, its winter flow reduced to quiet whispers between ice-covered rocks.
The 2.6-mile path gains minimal elevation, staying near 3,200 feet throughout. Winter wildlife includes deer and elk, though deep snow keeps sightings rare. Forest silence dominates, broken only by occasional ice cracking in the distance.
Where winter brings back quiet
Three natural rock pools await at trail’s end, each carved by artesian springs flowing year-round. The upper pool runs hottest at 104°F and deepest at 3 feet, seating 4-6 people comfortably.
The 2017 silt event that changed crowds
Spring runoff in 2017 filled pools with silt and debris, naturally reducing visitor numbers. This geological reset created today’s quieter atmosphere, with winter weekdays seeing 0-5 visitors and weekends hosting 10-20 people maximum.
Three pools of varying heat
The middle pool offers 100-102°F temperatures with easier rock-step access. The lower pool stays cooler at 100°F but draws fewer crowds. High mineral content creates a subtle sulfur scent, while silica deposits smooth the natural rock formations.
Soaking among the cedars
January air temperatures range from 10°F at night to 35°F during the day. Steam rises dramatically from pools against the cold air, creating ethereal morning mist through the forest.
Winter snowshoe access
Sharp rocks in pools require water shoes for safe entry. The clothing-optional tradition continues year-round, though families and solo travelers share the space respectfully. Winter conditions in nearby Montana create similar pristine wilderness experiences...

Raising children with family naturism helps them grow up body-positive, confident, and free from shame.

**This 10 minute hike through hurricane ruins reaches St Martin’s clearest turquoise cove**
By John, 23/01/2026
The parking lot at Friar’s Bay buzzes with day-trippers unloading beach chairs and coolers. Most never notice the unmarked dirt path leading north through the brush. This 10-minute hike through abandoned hurricane ruins leads to St. Martin’s clearest turquoise cove, where only 20-50 visitors discover Happy Bay’s crystal waters each day.
The trail rewards those willing to leave the crowds behind. Hurricane Irma’s 177mph winds left roofless concrete shells scattered across the hillside in 2017, now home to curious iguanas basking in the Caribbean sun.
The trail through time
The dirt path starts at Friar’s Bay’s northern end, marked only by worn footprints and local knowledge. Rocky terrain requires steady footing, though flip-flops work for most hikers. Elevation gain stays minimal across the 0.4-mile route.
Abandoned structures appear through the vegetation after 5 minutes. Pre-Irma resort buildings stand as concrete skeletons, their missing roofs creating frames for tropical sky. Curly-tailed iguanas lounge on debris, unbothered by occasional hikers passing through their reclaimed territory.
The sound of waves grows stronger as the path curves toward the coast. Coconut palms and sea grape trees provide intermittent shade. A fence blocks direct road access to preserve the ruins’ eerie quiet.
When the cove reveals itself
The first glimpse...

**Skinny-dipping is back in central Helsinki as Yrjönkatu swimming hall reopens**
Finland’s oldest swimming hall reopens on 2 February 2026 after a two-year restoration
By Antti Helin, 26 January 2026
Helsinki’s legendary Yrjönkatu Swimming Hall is back. After a two-year renovation, Finland’s oldest swimming hall reopens on Monday 2 February 2026, bringing its famously distinctive bathing culture back into action.
Originally opened in 1928, Yrjönkatu is a showpiece of 1920s classicism, designed by architect Väinö Vähäkallio. The refurbishment has carefully restored the building’s historic character while quietly updating its facilities for modern-day swimmers.
But Yrjönkatu has always been about more than architecture. The hall is internationally known for its long-standing tradition of nude swimming – yes, nude – though never mixed. Women and men swim on separate days, a system that remains firmly in place. Women have access on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays, while men swim on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays.
That said, swimwear is now optional. The strict all-nude policy was relaxed back in 2001, making the experience a little less intimidating for first-timers...
