Nudity or Not?

[AskMeOk]

I have a few questions regarding club administration:

How many clubs have a nudity only area? Where is it?

How many clubs have a clothing optional area? Where is it?

What have clubs done to allow newbies a transition area between the "front door" and the "playroom?"

I'm thinking specifically of smaller clubs, but any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

AskMeOk,

We haven't been to any of the clubs here in NC yet. But from past experience, it depends on the club. That is normally covered when they give you the walk through of the club and what the rules are.

One of the more sophisticated clubs in our area has "you must be wearing at least a thong or g-string on the dance floor" rule. The couple who gave us our initial tour gave a reason, "We don't want to scare off the new members." The wilder club in our area has no rule whatsoever about nakedness. Many members walk about completely unclothed -- both indoors and out of doors. An "off-premise" place we visit in another town allows nakedness only on the dance floor.

So I guess my answer is, "it depends."

Hope this helps.

One of our favorite clubs has a sign on the doors into the play area that reads "No Street Clothes Beyond This Point". They provide lockers (with attendants) and large towels to wrap around you. Or you can wear lingerie, or robes, if you brought them with you.

Are you asking this as advice, as in you are considering opening your own club?

Speaking as patron, not that we have a lot of on premise club experience but the times we have seen 'no clothes beyond this point' have been the private group rooms and that area is also couples only beyond those points. That was the only mandatory 'no clothes' area and you had lockers available before you entered.

We have seen sex and nudity everywhere, even right next to the dance floor. We watched a guy get a nice blow job from his wife...maybe his wife while right next to them were three girls in a daisy chain. I don't know what their specific rules were for the dance floor, lol, but it didn't seem to matter what they did or where they did it.

We have taken a club tour at every club we have gone too (only three). On and off premise and I think this should be the key to transition every newbie. Don't make it mandatory but strongly advise it. Remind them that there is no pressure to play, ever. Just go to have a good time.

This is a small venue, perhaps a smidge larger than a house party, but much smaller than a club. We are trying to grow the M&G and party attendance.

Being physically small we've had difficulty with newbies walking into nudity and more, before they should have been exposed.

From personal experience, I think required nudity in the play area is good because it reassures most folks that there are no cameras and limits the area to those at least ready for nudity.

I think a club tour is going to be mandated, though "No means NO" is posted everywhere, a personal reassurance should be part of the orientation. It would give everybody a chance to understand and/or be reassured. Those stories about couples showing up at the door with his intention to *surprise* the new girl friend are not urban legends.....

The visuals that sprang to mind had me laughing very hard. Those are the things that make for great stories down the road if you make it through the moment, lol.

Being from NC, that whole area is a great place to probably build something for those that do not want to drive into Raleigh or Charlotte. We just recently moved from NC down to Florida and were afraid we were going to lose momentum but managed to find a great group of people to connect with.

Would love to hear more of how it goes.

My wife and I are in the planning phase of our very first house party and that should be pretty interesting.

The only club we have ben too is the Red Rooster in Las Vegas. They have a bedroom area upstairs, which is for couples only, where nudity is required.

Prevents the lookie-loos from standing around the beds fully clothed, which is distracting, while your trying to have sex.

The club which I usually go to is a private house in a residential neighborhood... people are allowed to be naked in the designated "play areas" (i.e., the pool, the backyard, the bedrooms/playrooms) - people in public areas like the living room & the kitchen are asked to "cover up"

[JustAskJulie]

At an off-premise club you aren't going to have full nudity at all (you may see some flesh, some boobs, etc but in general it will be covered).

Most on-premise clubs require some sort of clothing in the social areas. Few REQUIRE nudity and even then it's only in the play areas, just to put everyone on equal ground (cuts down on the looky loos). There's always a transition space in those clubs that do require nudity (usually a changing room or locker room).

The place where you are most likely to walk in and find everyone (or many) already naked with no transition, is a house party (if you get there late... and sometimes if you get there on time).
