Summary

Germany's nudist culture, known as FKK, is still thriving, with public nudity being a non-event at parks and lakes. However, the practice is facing challenges such as bans on public nudity and the rise of sex sauna clubs disguised as FKK establishments. Despite this, advocates believe that nudism is worth protecting for its promotion of self-confidence and departure from social constraints.
