It isnt just whether or not they will undress or not, CO vs nude mandatory affects whether someone new will go to the club or resort in the first place. If they are nervous but willing to at least see what it is all about if they can maintain some feeling of safety they might go, but if they knew would be required to be nude right from the start I think its less likely.
By nudony:But I do feel that it's up to the person to be totally transparent at check-in about their "readiness" and emotional state. An astute and empathetic manager/attendant can then make recommendations based on that person's individual needs.
Probably won't fly, but perhaps reception can hand out buttons to the reluctant to pin on their clothing, featuring a cartoon chicken and the caption "I'm too chicken to go nude just yet!" Want to remove the button? Everything else goes with it! :-D

Right. Humiliate people the moment they walk into the door. Sounds like a great way to introduce people to nudism.

Imagine that that right force someone to fit in or look at the situation through my eyes or humiliate them thats such a strong motivator.
If we stopped making it about getting naked and focused on all the other things like the community the connection with mature - take into consideration how people actually change we might be actually encourage more people to adopt the way of life. But we are stuck on get naked so the rest of the world will read only there experiences into that and since for many that is negative we wont reach many
The closest resort to me is for men only. It is 100% clothing optional -- it is not a nudist resort. By that I mean, it is ok to be nude throughout the resort -- even in the registration office and cafe. But it is also ok to be clothed throughout the resort -- even in the pool, sauna, and hot tub.
Each visitor decides whether or not to wear clothing. Although most of the men in the pool and pool area are nude, some swim in shorts. Some guys use the hot tub with shorts on.
Although my preference would be for everyone to be nude all the time while at the resort, the goal is to allow each man decide what is comfortable for himself. Many of the men who visit the resort are textiles and are uncomfortable being nude. If they were required to be nude, they would likely not visit the resort -- lost revenue.
Does anyone ever stop to ask why they care if others are nude when their own freedom to experience their own natural state is unimpugned?Why does their nakedness or non-nakedness impact your own? Why do you demand their nakedness? Why do they owe it to you to be naked? Do you claim some right over their body? Is it some banal game of "I showed you mine now show me yours"? What possible noble reason is there for you to demand that someone else remove their clothing around you?Is not their holding no claims against your freedom to be nude good enough?Try this then. Don a blindfold, then be nude. Experience nudism as a blind person, find out if it's the state of being your natural self that you're after, or if your motivations are something unworthy and selfish.
You make a good point. I personally do not care if I am the only nude among the clothed, though I have not had that experience very often. Should others want to join me at being clothes free, that's fine too. One thing that must be taken into consideration is that if a place that allows nudity among the clothed becomes more popular with the clothed, the freedom to be nude might just be taken away.

On the flip side, if textiles get more used to seeing nudists and realize the nudity is not causing people to go blind or whatever, its possible that nudity might start being allowed on more places.

One example I read on another forum, but not about a clothing optional resort.
Several male college students rented a large house together. On moving day, one of the men brought in his stuff and stripped nude before he even started unpacking, He remained nude until he had to leave the next day and got nude again as soon as he returned, Within a few days, all the men in the house had abandoned all clothing at home and spend the rest of the academic year nude whenever they were home.
The difference here is that one was a private home and the other places that have been closed were public beaches. I most definitely can go either way. Caution and eagle eyed observation are in order.
