Nudists declare war over one of the West Coast’s most stunning beauty spots… and they’re using a bizarre slur for clothed beachgoers

Daily Mail · 3 hours ago

A dispute has broken out at Rooster Rock, a well-known nudist beach in Oregon's Columbia River Gorge, between naturists who use the site and clothed visitors who also frequent the area. According to the report, some nudists have taken to using the term "textiles" as a derogatory label for clothed beachgoers, reflecting rising tension over how the popular, scenic riverside spot should be shared. The row highlights broader friction at designated clothing-optional beaches in the US, where naturists and conventional beachgoers increasingly clash over etiquette, access and behaviour.

Rooster Rock State Park, located along the Columbia River near Portland, has long been recognised as one of the West Coast's most scenic official nudist beaches, drawing both naturists and curious onlookers. The Daily Mail report frames the disagreement as part of a wider "war" over use of the beauty spot, with the "textiles" term used to distinguish and disparage those who remain clothed. Full further details of specific incidents were not available in the source text provided.
