To Blur or Not & The Swinger Script

To Blur or Not & The Swinger Script

Two conversations that turn out to be the same conversation. First: to blur or not to blur? The fight over hiding your face in nude photos online — privacy vs. visibility, and why protecting yourself isn't shame. Then: the "Swinger Script" — the deliberate, deniability-built pattern some people run on newcomers in naturist spaces, how it works, and how to shut it down. Both come back to one thing: who gets to feel safe being themselves. Plus: the lineup for our next TNV Live (July 25) — comedian Hunter Wright and Erin of Single Girl in a Nudist World join the guest panel, with live music from Jersey singer-songwriter Marc Del Giudice. Content note: the second half discusses predatory behavior, coercion, and consent in naturist spaces (no graphic detail).

TNV Live Recap & Big Girls Wanted: Escaping Pearadise

Gabby and Dan recap their very first TNV Live show — the guests, the performances, and the energy in the room — then dig into the Investigation Discovery docuseries Big Girls Wanted: Escaping Pearadise. Through an ethical-naturism lens, they explore what happens when the language of body positivity gets used as bait: the allegations surrounding Stefan Wilhelmy's "Pearadise," the dynamics of coercive control, and what genuine, non-transactional body acceptance should actually look like. Content note: this episode discusses allegations of sexual assault, coercion, weight-gain fetishism and disordered eating, reproductive coercion, mental health, and a death. Everything regarding Pearadise is discussed as allegation — Stefan Wilhelmy has denied wrongdoing, and these are civil matters and documentary accounts, not criminal convictions.

The Truth Begins Here Part 3

In this final episode of The Truth Begins here Gabby and Dan talk about a couple of things that have happened since part 2 came out, and address some of the feedback that they have heard. While this is the last episode in the series, its not the end of the story.  If more comes out they will talk about it, but for now it is time to turn our attention to the positive side of naturism. * Why I walked away from AANR and AANR West [https://1naturistlife.substack.com/p/why-i-walked-away-from-aanr-and-aanr] by Dustin Cox * Original sin [https://www.planetnude.co/p/original-sin] by Timothy Sargent * The complaint Gabby and Dan sent to AANR, including a PDF that includes links, documents, court papers, etc.  [https://open.substack.com/pub/tnjeditor/p/a-formal-complaint-to-aanr?r=3u6wso&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=true] Send Gabby and Dan a message anytime.
