I see nudity as a totally natural thing and entirely separate from sex. The two do not go hand in hand and I do not automatically view a naked human body in sexual way, no matter how attractive it may be. This means that seeing a person naked does not offend me, but the idea that someone was getting kicks from showing me their naked body does. I think that's the essential difference between naturism and exhibitionism.

I can also appreciate that some people are simply more conservative than me and don't want to be subjected to an eye full of my (admittedly not very attractive) cellulite.
