One can think of colonies of people running ar- ound in the sun enjoying the freedom of ci1o thiess living; again you cout d think of the strip shows of our larger cities, with balding middle-aged men lining up t o g a wk and s t a re at a bevy of nude beautiescavortingon a stage.

Yes, nudism is very much a part of m a ny p eopte's 1lives, and even more, ver y m uch a part of peopie's conver- sat ions. To f 1 11 us ln a li1t tie on nudism, at toea st f r om a "Inudist's"lpoint of view, is Da ve Levy, a local artist and mod- el. Yes, DaveLevy is an artist's model who modei1s both dre ssed and undressed., Dave i s a rare animal indeed. Rare in the f a c t that femat e model s outnumber maiemodelsmany, many more times and draped maie modei1s outnumber undraped modets at least as mnany times. Dave says, 'Il doubt with ait the con- troversyover female nudity that people are even aware, or have ever stopped to think of the possibîl ity of male nudes." Why model nude? Okay men!Where are you, w ith your courage and strength? Dave's opinion concerning your prudishness is based on t. the iack of your numbers, and 2. y o ur e v eryday self-co.nsciousness of your body. Agir I at the beach is lookeçi for in a bikini . What do you guys wear? Ber- muda shorts! Are you so fut1 of ego and shame of your physique, that you find it easy to speak out against those who are are not? You men del ight in seeing the f emal e form, but do you show yours ? Do you have .any thiîng to show? Why does Dave modet "au Naturalt"? He f irmty states, "li'm proud of the gift that the good Lordgave tome; 1 think hegaveiîttome for areason. 1 tend i tand take care of i t. You may cati1 me conceted, narcissistic, a heai th nut or exhibitionist. t may be ail of these, or none of them. As a 1ti fe ar t ist my set1f, I think I know what it is art ists look for in a model. i know 1 have a fairly good physique, a 1 i t tle on the siilm side for m y1 i iking, but i take no credi t for my a s se t s, except to the fact that i look after i t as you wouid your car or any other possession. Forme, it's money. Il Yes, Davemodels for money, varying from $3. 50 to $6. 0O per hour. He enjoys mi1ngl1ing with people who can take him fr fha% he is -__afeitowartistan who - odel's Viewpoint "I1 see no wrong in this, my nudity I mean. ltts a job I enjoy very much, and no amount of moraltizing can change my phiiosophy. To those iearned theoiog- i ans 1 wouid say, l'in that God created m an i nhis i mage, the human form is divine. Il In the same way as you admire the beauty of t h e sea, the trees, an eagi e in f1 i gh t, a horse running in the wvind unbridied, unsaddled and free as the day he was born, then sui-eiy, how much less i s the beauty and shape, 1une, contour and texture in the human form. "0f course", Dave states, 111 think i t is f a i r i y weii1 known among artists th at artist's modeis vary, to a certain e x te n d, from the accepted "pl ayboy"I type girl model. And as "lbeauty is in the e ye of the beholder, Il so we can run a w ho te gamut of types of models. How- e v er, there i s a preponderance to fe- maie m odels to maie modeis, and the only reason i can think of as a cause of th i s , 1s the prudishness or sel f-con- sciousness or pride of the maie animai. Th is faise feeling of superiority over women , in that itis acceptable for a wvoman to str ip, but not a man, can oni y be because of the afore mentioned." Takes courage "'None the iess, it takes courage to do itat first and certainly you are self- conscious, butwhenyoureaiize that the h ar d -working artist concentrating9 on p u t t i n g your form on canvass, paper etc. , isnIt even aware, so to speak, of your nudity, then things fail into their proper perspective. There is no reason t o lose stature. You are an object, an interesting one (I hope), throughout your p os ing9 routine, but none the iess, an object. Il Sissyness Is th e re a question of sissyness to t h is job? Any model wviiI point ou t that to hol1d a pose from15 to 30minutes, y ou have to be in shape. Dave has, to back this up, ten years as a boxer (two y e ar s p r o fessional ly) during his two years in the army as a physicai train ing instructor. Dave represented them as a champion swimmer.
