Out of this textile world
ROSCO is one of Australia’s oldest nudist clubs. It sits on the aptly named Freeman’s Creek, just outside of Newcastle.
Although perceptions about nudist clubs are often linked to sex, ROSCO members clarify that the lifestyle is about freedom, body acceptance, and just being comfortable.
However, fighting stereotypes around the naturist lifestyle has been a long battle, with many members choosing to keep their hobby a secret due to fear of discrimination.
