Especially swimming, for which bathers are generally just unnecessary things that cause trouble. Genuine nudists regard sexual misbehaviour or harassment objectionable as it drives people away.
The 4WD muster referred to is on a secluded private property and being a clothing optional resort, obviously many will choose to not wear clothes unless it is too cold or there are a lot of mosquitoes. Sometimes in hot weather the most uncomfortable time can be having to put them back on for some reason. Also, having everyone nude can be a good social leveller. The clothes people wear can sometimes say a lot about them eg hint at occupation, social status, income fashion tastes etc. Without them everyone is largely more similar to everyone else.
Most likely at the 4WD Nude Muster similar things could happen as an incident I saw described at a festival where going nude was acceptable and commonplace. There was a group of men engrossed in something going on. Could have been like looking at an interesting vehicle. Along came a naked woman who wanted something. (Maybe a chore job done.) She was initially totally ignored and had to yell to get attention. Her being nude was regarded as a non issue and probably some types of clothes, especially glamorous ones would have made the blokes take more notice.
