Reports on FKK (Freikörperkultur) grounds, new nudist beaches, and travel tips with specific addresses for naturists.
Firstly, they provided a sense of community. In a pre-internet age, magazines were the only way for naturists to see that they were not alone, to observe how others lived, dressed (or undressed), and interacted with nature. Secondly, they fought a battle for normalization. By presenting nudity in contexts of sport, camping, swimming, and family outings, Sonnenfreunde aimed to desexualize the naked body, presenting it instead as a vessel of health, vitality, and freedom. --Sonnenfreunde Sonderheft 234 - FKK Magazin- -Gerd Berendt-
