What do nudists possess that make them fearless enough to cast self-consciousness (and underpants) to the wind, tanning seaside and hitting the slopes while completely barenaked and carefree? It's something big, and bless their souls for living that lifestyle openly, often at nudist colonies alongside like-minded folks who just want to grill up some wieners without wearing pants (word of advice to naked dues: at least wear an apron so you end up cooking the right wiener).

For nudists, stripping down is just a way of life, and if that means head-to-toe-to-butt portraits of them end up on the Interwebs, then so be it. Because, really, what else are the web sites for nudist colonies and nudism groups supposed to put up?

Nevertheless, sometimes these folks catch a break, as we found in this handpicked collection of the most SFW photos from nudist websites on the Net! Tell your boss it's okay -- you can't see anything, so it's totes appropriate, you guys!
