In 1996, the magazine became the subject of intense public and legal scrutiny in Germany.
The magazine included articles on travel, social issues, and health, though it was heavily dominated by pictorials. Photography and Style
The magazine's visual style focused on "youthful independence" and "intellectual liberty" within the naturist movement.
The Bundesprüfstelle für jugendgefährdende Schriften (Federal Department for Media Harmful to Young Persons) initially found the magazine acceptable but reversed this decision in 1996.
It had a French counterpart, Jeunes & Naturels , which shared identical imagery.
In contrast, a 2000 U.S. court ruling found similar imported magazines to be protected under the First Amendment , viewing them as legitimate representations of the nudist movement rather than obscene material. Legacy and Collecting
Today, original issues are primarily found through vintage collectors and marketplaces. Jung und Frei 1 - 1987 - LastDodo
