Nudism - a moment of freedom from the conventions of society
Nudism: a moment of freedom from the conventions of society!
- I am a nudist with experience: I have been coming to the nudist beach of Koktebel for 17 times already, - says Olga from Kharkov. - I put up a tent on the beach and hoist a flag nearby so that my friends can see that I have arrived. And the most intelligent audience from all over the world gathers around the flag.
According to Olga, her companion Konstantin and their friends - Lyudmila and Sergey, "nudism is a moment of freedom from the conventions of society. "
- Precisely freedom, - says Olga. - Nudism is not a way of life, it is a way of liberated thinking.
The nudist beach of Koktebel is considered the oldest of the three official Crimean beaches for those who like to show off in the costumes of Adam and Eve. In addition to Koktebel, there are similar beaches in Sevastopol and Yalta. At least, this is what various guides to the Crimea say. In fact, there are exactly 10 times more nudist beaches on the peninsula. For example, only in Greater Feodosia there are five of them: "Beregovo", "Primorsky", "gerbil", "Liska" and, in fact, Koktebel.
In "Liska", that is, in the Lisya Bay, which is 5 km west of Koktebel, several thousand people gather naked in July-August, while in the nudist capital, that is, in Koktebel - no more than 200 - 400 people. Approximately the same number as in "Lisk", there are "people without panties" in the vicinity of Sevastopol. A thousand less - in Yalta.
- In August, we definitely arrange a holiday for Neptune, - Olga continues the story. - Neptune, the naiads and all his retinue come out of the sea, and we - people without panties - follow them naked along Koktebel. Nowhere, on any other beaches, there is nothing like it. That is why Koktebel is considered the capital of world nudism. And also because this tradition was created by the famous poet Maximilian Voloshin.
Here is how paleontologist Dmitry Startsev, an experienced nudist, tells about this:
- Once the famous Moscow stripper Maria Deisha-Sionitskaya (1861-1932) came to her Koktebel estate to take a break from work. After a good night's sleep, she put on a tightly closed bathing suit and went to sunbathe by the sea. However, here a most curious sight awaited her: Voloshin with a large company of his literary friends drank port wine and frolicked naked, not in the least embarrassed by the presence of Maria. Deisha-Sionitskaya became furious and shouted: “Disgrace! shamelessness! It's some kind of mudiste beach! " But since her nose was stuffed up, it turned out to be "nudist". So it is still called, and at the same time all other beaches where people relax naked.
