Torben Larsen is a naturist, former chairman of the Danish Naturists Association, and editor of the association's yearbooks and newsletters. In this lecture, he examines attitudes toward nudity across different historical periods and up to today, with particular focus on media-driven perfectionism culture and young people's body anxiety.

Following the lecture, there will be a debate exploring naturism's role as a tool for preserving Danish freedom of thought.

The ticket price includes coffee, tea, or water and a small snack. Everyone is welcome.
