Dutch Naked Women Dutch women love showing off their bodies bare, which may account for why the country has produced so much nude art and even dedicated museums to this topic. American magazines also recognize women over 40 and 50 and feature them often as subjects for cover images or editorial features.
No matter the subject of the articles – whether they feature middle-aged women wearing nothing but their birthday suits on beaches or older women taking walks with walkers – their message remains the same: these ladies are doing what’s expected of them and no one should judge.
A television show featuring naked adults answering questions from children has caused controversy in Holland.

Former Olympic gold medallist Inge de Bruijn stripped naked for her stint on Adam Zoekt Eva (Adam Seeks Eve), the Netherlands’ version of Love Island, to find Mr Right. De Bruijn spent one week naked amongst fellow participants to search for potential matches during Adam Zoekt Eva (Adam Seeks Eve). De Bruijn was regularly reminded by others on the show that they were watching her and that there weren’t just eyes upon her body.
