Summary

The practice of FKK, or being naked in nature, is reportedly dwindling in Germany due to a new "nudity taboo" according to a German sexologist. Despite a membership decline, advocates of FKK insist on its benefits and appeal, attributing the drop to social media influence and a diverse society less accepting of public nudity.
