Diane Webber: An Icon of Nudism… or not?
Diane Webber, born Diane Marguerite Empey (Wikipedia article), was an American actress and model. Although she had modelled for Playboy in the mid-50’s, she married and became a true nudist several years later, apearing in many nudist magazines. Although posing for Playboy is not acceptable to most nudists, she was an overall positive model of nudism. Perhaps she discovered, as many other female models and performers have, that nudism is the way to be nude with dignity, pride and serenity. The fact that she is considered by most to be attractive could be a good or bad factor as a model nudist. While real nudists shouldn’t judge, or make attractiveness a factor at all, the fact that she was considered attractive probably caught the attention of more Americans than she otherwise would have, thereby promoting nudism to the general public more effectively. On the other hand, however, photographic attention given only to an attractive nudist woman might make others feel they don’t look good enough to be a nudist.
Rest assured, you will see quite a variety of body types at a nude beach or nudist resort, few of them “acceptable” to Hollywood’s dictates. So whoever you are, and whatever you look like, you’ll fit right in!
