Während in den Boom-Jahrzehnten der Freikörperkultur (insbesondere von den 1960er bis zu den 1980er Jahren) die unbefangene, familiäre Nacktheit im Zentrum stand und Magazine flächendeckend frei verkäuflich waren, änderte sich der gesellschaftliche und rechtliche Umgang in den späten 1990er und 2000er Jahren grundlegend.
