Naturism is a social practice in which the nudity of the body is an immutable property. However, there are many injunctions to meet aesthetic expectations regarding the presentation of the body. In this article, by analysing the speeches of the actors involved, alongside the images conveyed in the internal mediatization of the movement, we will see that the practice of naturism allows for the partial elimination of the normative social injunctions related to the appearance of the body.
