They are the Finns.

Finland, and Scandinavians in general, are recognized for their love of saunas. A sauna is a tiny wooden room that is heated by steam to temperatures of up to 150 degrees Fahrenheit. Other designs, such as this ice sauna, are available. Regardless of the design, groups of friends and coworkers frequently enjoy saunas together, savoring the health benefits and relaxation that they provide.

When it comes to traditional Finnish saunas, there is no such thing as nakedness. Wrapping a towel around one's body is not a good method to enjoy a sauna. Fully naked, with legs spread comfortably, one can sit with friends, relatives, or coworkers and sweat together.

Urho Kekkonen, Finland's president, has even begun to expand his outrageousDuring the Cold War, Finnish President Urho Kekkonen even began to expand his reckless attitude toward Soviet diplomats by inviting them into the sauna to spend a moment - totally naked! [1] Putin recently undressed for a steamy encounter with Tarja Halonen, the former president of Finland from 2000 to 2012.

Children in Finland may grow up seeing their father's glutes and wondering if their mother's curtains match her drapes, as nudity is considered completely natural and asexual in this society. A private house sauna is a popular fixture, and everyone in the family can enjoy it together, generally at least once a week.

They do not regard the naked body as a source of shame. Getting naked in the sauna is undoubtedly steamy, but not sexy.

I wonder what sauna has to do with being shameless. I don't know where you live but with us, children see their parents naked too. Parents take a bath or shower with their children and if it comes to being naked there's nothing to be ashamed about. The way you write about it says a lot about you.

I'm talking from a pschological point of view. If the child is younger than it's okay, but when kids are older(children may start to ask for privacy generally around age 4 or 5, which may indicate their discomfort with seeing parents naked as well) , all that parental nudity can bring confusion. “A child may want to cuddle or be held when mom is naked. Children school-age and up should not be allowed to touch the parent’s body while naked,” says Dr. Lisa Lewis
