I don't know about public nudity, but I get a kick out of posting my pictures all over the internet. I don't know what it is, but it sure does excite me! ;)

same here - my photos are all over the net and I generally strip down to the legal minimum at every opportunity.

 

but my hubby is not in any of them... not as comfortable naked AND he's more worried about being recognized...

I picked two but heading toward one. John has always posted things on the internet. Guess I'm relaxing in my old age. :lol:

We are also nudists and love the resort, can't get there enough. We also go to bdsm clubs where my hunny is usually nekkid.

NUDE RULES!!!

We both love to be completely naked. Our local on-premise club has a lot of folks that seem to favor partially dressed or just letting a little something hang out...we have to laugh, privately of course. I'm just the opposite though of some of the other posters...while I like to be naked in that setting, I don't want any nude pictures of me floating around on the internet...I have teenage children and I wouldn't like it if they or their friends came across nude pics of me.

I (male half) don't really care one way or the other. My wife gets naked at every possibly occasion! I think that she would live naked if she could. She always walks around the house naked and has no problems posting herself on web pages.

I love being naked as well but can't because of the children. If I could walk around the house all day without clothing I would be thrilled...

 

As for the internet, well I don't mind showing myself naked on webcam in an adult chat room setting but I don't like to post naked pictures of myself unless I know who has access to them.

 

I have put up a couple in email groups but they are never of my face...just anonymous shots.

I've never had a problem being nude around people in places like public showers or locker rooms where nudity is expected. I doubt I'd have a problem at a club either, unless everyone around me was some kind of hardbody, which I hear is usually not the case.

 

I wouldn't call myself a exhibitionist though. I don't consider myself to have the kind of body that I can show off, and I wouldn't want to offend anyone or look foolish (spandex is not in my wardrobe :lol: ). But, if I had it, I'd flaunt it! I'll keep working on that. ;)

 

B. C. (Before Children) we used to walk around naked all the time in the house. Those were the days...

My wife and I enjoy nude camping and enjoy nude sunbathing on the deck, when the kids are gone, and are going to be gone for awhile. But I don't like the idea of pic's out there in cyberspace floating around. We have families that enjoy the internet also and would find it embarrassing if they saw us like that. LOL

Just an aside....but a lot of naturists go nude in front of their children (as do the children). We saw a lot of this at Harbin, children are very accepting IF they are brought up that way. Now I don't recommend introducing nudism when they're teenagers, that's a little late.

Oh I perfectly agree with this and have wanted to be nude around my children but my husband is against it after they are like three years old or so. So it's out when the kids are up but when they are in bed off go the clothes...lol.

I too was very into Nudism B.C (before children) and rarely wore anything once I hit my front door. I have an older teenage daughter now, and although everyone in the house is usually in some form of 'undress', we aren't ever naked in front of one another. I don't believe my 12yr old son has ever seen my wife totally naked. We are a very open family, and discuss things quite frankly, we just don't wander around nude. As for others, well, I haven't gone skinny dipping in a few decades.... :D

We too are enthusiastic nudists and have been for over 40 years. We are always nude around the house and spend a lot of time at our nudist club. Virtually all our vacations have been at nudist clubs around the world. We make no secret of the fact that we are nudists and all our friends and families know about it (of course we are much more discreet when it comes to swinging). We are never more comfortable than when we are nude. We brought our children up in the nudist lifestyle and from a very early age they were accustomed to seeing their parents in the nude. They were nudists themselves until they went to college and drifted away from nudism. However when they visit with their families it is quite common for us all to strip off and relax and socialize together around the hot tub with not a stitch of clothing on.

I think that is great Brian & Jo. My wife and I just started nude camping last year and can not wait until the weather warms up but our kids are 15 and 17, a little late too start them into the lifestyle of nudism. When we get more comfortable with our newfound pastime I sure we will tell them about it but until then discretion is the word.

I voted on the behalf of both of us for 'only our spouses and select playmates'. If my husband had his choice he wouldn't mind living his life in the nude. I am way more conservative than he is, but we have decided to go to a nudist camp this coming summer. Maybe I'll change my mind somewhat then.

The nudist resort we belong to is a family oriented place. There are people there from 1 day to over 80. Most relaxing and happy place in the world. It's in paw-paw W Va. Avalon Resort Clothing optional resort in WV

We're in something of the same situation. While I don't have any problems being nude (although I'm not an exhibitionist... I don't find it gratifying. I just don't care), Amelia, on the other hand, would never dream of being naked in public. Obviously, it's all good when we're in private with ourselves or our playmates, but the very idea of her being naked in a "public" place like a club or a nudist camp?

 

Unthinkable!

 

Which is a shame, really. She's got a smokin' bod. :D

I have to envy those that are so comfortable with being nude around others that they don't know. I grew up in a family where you locked your doors to change clothing and never, ever should you reveal anything more than you have to. (This included no sleeveless tops.)

 

That is why I am willing to give a nudist camp a try, just to see if I can overcome all of the old conditioning. Like Chris of Chris and Amelia, I don't have a problem with nudity around me, but it doesn't do anything for me either. I have a huge problem exposing my own self to those I do not know though.

I grew up in a family like that... it amazes me we got undressed to take a shower. But I met a family when I much younger that changed my outlook.

 

I remember the first time I moved by myself my mother was so upset that I was living in a 4 story walk up beside a lot of high rise apartments that she went and bought me curtains. :lol:

This is a message for Lori of Ohio Couple.

 

Lori, in our experience most, if not all women, are quite nervous when making their first visit to a nudist resort. This is a very natural thing and the result of the conditioning most people get if they are not brought up in a nudist family, i.e. there is something shameful about a nude body and it is wrong to expose oneself to others. It is also our experience that most women, within a few minutes of first experiencing mixed social nudity, wonder what all the fuss was about. We are sure you will find that when you are nude in a situation where everyone else is nude is both comfortable and natural - as a lady friend mentioned to us the other day it is a question of keeping your clothes on and standing out like a sore thumb or taking them off and melding in. We are also sure that you will quickly discover how good it feels to take everything off and relax or exercise in the nude with friends. Once you have swum without the encumbrance of a swimsuit you will never want to wear one again. And you will soon realize how a few hours in the nude is a great way to unwind and recharge your batteries.

 

We hope your first visit to a nudist club is a success and we would very much like to hear how it goes.

 

Brian and Jo

By way of my past boyfriend, I have had photos of myself posted on the net, which I know for sure now. I freaked at first, but then I don't expect anybody I know to either say anything about even if they find out. In any case they are mostly flattering. What is more, I did work as a life study my sophomore year and even as recently as November. And in both cases, I did it because I was OK with being seen and wanted to experience being seen. In the case of my job, it was an easy and socially acceptable way to try it, and it paid better than working most jobs on campus. This was well before I started swing. With the photos, I liked looking at them later, and I wouldn't have done it if I wasn't OK with their getting out at some point. I'm not running for politics, and it would be hard to pin-point that it is mean in a lot of cases.

 

I like being seen, being naked. I am very open when I'm at a party, or the club trips I have made. I like stirring reactions a bit, I admit that. I like working out in outfits that are still practical, but let people know I have a body. I'm not sure swinging would be as much fun for me if I didn't have a third or forth or fifth person seeing me at any point in time.

I remember the time when Amelia and I went to our first on-premises club. We were still in the "Is the Lifestyle right for us?" phase, and one of the ground rules that Amelia had set was "If I start to get weirded out, we're leaving. No appeals."

 

So we walk in, meet the hosts, and get our name tags. We're given a brief tour of the upstairs areas. Then they take us down the party / dance floor. The very first thing we see if a woman standing there buck naked. Not a stitch of clothing. Amelia and I look at each other. I can see that she's thinking. I ask her if she's okay and she tells me "I fine. Let's go in."

 

Later, she told me that she was initially surprised to see the nude woman there, and she was very very close to saying "We're outta here!" But after working through the initial surprise and discussing the situation with herself, she decided she was willing to "tolerate" it for the time being, and see what developed. Obviously, and luckily, she adapted quite well and seeing people in various states of undress no longer bother her (and if she finds the person attractive, she rather likes it). But still, the thought of her going nude in a public or quasi-public location is not an option.

 

I'm willing to accept that!

My wife and I both love being nekkid and being seen...my wife especially is quite a show-off.

 

When we were first dating, she lived with a female roommate and had no problem walking around the house nude. Once, after we had sex and were lying around on the bed, a female friend of her roommate came over to visit. The roommate wanted to introduce them ...so my future wife walked out fully nude to say hello. She came back in the bedroom and said "I think I startled her"....maybe I should have done the same and REALLY shocked the girl...LOL

 

But I was really impressed with that – it made her seem so confidant and sexy.

 

As far as people seeing us having sex, we usually leave the blinds open so the neighbors can see in. It is always fun to imagine that they're watching...

We like being nude, but only in "safe" situations. Not really exhibitionists, but nude beaches, nudist parks and around the house are great for a no clothes atmosphere.... except when it gets too cold.

You may surprise yourself. The nudist environment is, simply put, wonderful.

 

For Janette and myself, feeling loved and accepted within the nudist community has been the largest boost to our self esteem we've ever had.

 

If you do try this and find it to your liking, I guarantee you'll leave feeling better about yourself than when you went in.

 

Promise.

America has a sick obsession with nudity. Siccing the FCC on Janet Jackson's tit and not letting a nursing mother feed her child in Starbucks. Under our clothes we are all naked, all the time, everyday. Get over it. Get naked as often as you can.

We (ex-wife and I) were often nude in front of our children the same as nudists would be. They didn't run in terror, nor did they grow into sexual horrors because of it. We were simply - naked. Nothing more. We could not see a problem with it nor do we see one now that the children are over 20 years old. We are human. What is the problem with other humans - our kids or anyone else - seeing us in our natural state? Can anyone give a rational reason why we should cover up? We do because we know that some people have some weird notions on nudity that I just can't fathom. But in our own home? Where is the problem unless you consider yourself pretty ugly in the nick?

We love to be naked when at all possible. Naked is good and free. We have a room mate now so just be free around the house is out of the question. But it is only temporary. We love to be seen in all stages of undress. I like to let others get a sneaky peek every now and again. He likes to watch the expression of those who get to see. It's fun and freeing to be naked are partial naked. There is a time and place for this though.

My husband is a nudist at heart. If he could he would live, work and play naked. I on the other hand am a bit more reserved and prefer to simply be naked at home. We don't have children yet so are not concerned about wether or not we have pics on the net and as for anybody else...What were you looking for that you came across them? lol.

We generally keep our clothes on...except when we're on the boat. Then I will strip off the pants and maybe the shirt too. She still stays clothed. I did walk down the dock to our boat naked once, but I was 99% sure nobody would see me! Was kind of a thrill but I'm not sure what I was trying to prove by doing it. Nobody dared me to do it or anything. :lol:

 

I have wanted to check out a nudist club, but the time just isn't right.

Can't believe we have missed this thread.

 

Given a choice we would both be nude all the time. If we had children together we would have raised them in a nude household. However, since we have her two preteen daughters that have never been exposed to a man we keep our clothes on unless we are alone. On the weekends that the kids are away (at their dad or friends) we stay nude. We still sleep nude and wear the minimum we are able to depending on the weather and circumstances.

We have been going to a friends house/property for a long time, because it is so secluded it has developed into an impromptu nudist resort.

 

Basically our family and friends are nudists, every 'even year' we go to St. Martin-Orient Beach or a place in Mexico. Our children have also become accustomed to being nude ... bottom line no big deal.

We enjoy being nude. We go to nude resorts and nude beaches as much as we can.

 

Many who have not tried this think that you have to have the perfect body to enjoy the experience. Not so. Look around your food store or local Wal-Mart - that is what you will see in a nude resort/beach environment.

 

One thing that I really like is that nude is nude - it is equalling. No judgement.

I've got an issue with being nude outdoors - that issue is SUNBURN! I've got super fair skin and can't cope with being one with nature but indoor nudity is A-OK and I think that it would be coolio if my partner got an even tan as long as he didn't mind me hiding out under the shade while he sunned it up.

We are OK with being nude. Mr likes walking around the home nude. Both like to tan in the nude. Start by spending no more than 10 minutes a side mid afternoon and slowly build it up. Swimming in the nude is very good.

Yes nude pic's on swinger suites is a real turn-on, better if we hear someone looked unless they think we don't know how we look (we do) and lets us know they don't like it (they don't have to like it, just hit the next button). It's all fun for someone so enjoy :lol:

I've gone through phases on the public nudity as far as the internet goes... everything from having my own amateur site to get that camera away from me. As far as real live public nudity goes.... give me a couple of drinks and a room full of people I'm comfortable in and my clothes will disappear.

Just wondering what everybody thinks about exhibitionism and/or public nudity.

 

Why? Eh, we're nosey.

 

One of my fantasies was to do a video, which I have done "with a mask on", I also have a photo of me "w/o a mask" on a amateur website doing doggie style with the host/owner of the site.

I guess we are different than most that have responded so far. While I am not self-conscious about being seen nude, it doesn't turn me on in the least. Furthermore, I don't even get the appeal of exhibitionism, but we also don't have anything against anyone who is into it either. Different strokes for different folks, our differences is what makes the world so interesting, in my opinion.

I'm with you. I have absolutely no issues with taking my clothes off in front of others. But I just don't see the need to walk around in front of my windows for others to see. I guess whatever floats your boat, though. It just doesn't turn me on.

Great - got that written down :D

 

On with my response!

 

I have tried the "nudist" thing and it just didn't work for me. I will walk around the house naked for about ten minutes in an effort to "connect with naturalism" but it doesn't take long before I want to "connect with bathrobe".

 

Mrs Spoo - on the other hand - sits around naked all the time.

 

In public (i.e. a club) it is pretty much the same way. I don't mind being nude on in the play room area (or if I have to leave the room to grab a towel or something) but the rest of the time - clothes are on.

 

I like clothes - and just am not comfortable being naked randomly. But that is me. I am not uncomfortable around nudity at all - and we have plenty of friends who love their own nakedness. I just refuse to let them sit on my leather chair ;)

      I am at the mature end of the swinging demographic as are my play friends. The ladies have their share of curves and character lines and often prefer to wear something when younger, fitter ladies prefer total nudity. This is just to say clothing is totally OK if it makes you comfortable. This is not a photo shoot. This is intimacy and mutual giving. Besides, a little color and texture is nice to see and feel. When I know my partner is shy I can adjust and just observe that as a boundary.
       
      Now, go shopping.

      I have a fantasy of being pegged by my wife at say, a swinger house party, with the door open or some how on display for passerby’s to watch. My only concern is whether this would be considered disrespectful or against an unspoken etiquette? I can understand it’s not for everyone.
    • By LovelyLynn
      I have a question for the experienced couples on the board. For quite a while I have had the desire to be in a more sexually charged environment while having sex with my husband. Now, I have been hanging around this board and learned a lot about the maturity required to swing and I must say I am impressed by a lot of you. The reason I bring this up is because I would like your opinions. I am wanting to find some couples or groups that are open and mature like yourselves to watch while each couple has sex.
       
      I am in my 20's and find that a lot of couples around my age lack maturity when it is called for. Of course for a lot of couples at any age it seems can barely keep their own relationships together. On the other hand it seems that a lot of you put respect and your relationships above all else. Other than the fact that I am not technically a swinger (yet ), I feel you people share more in common with my ideals than most groups of people.
       
      I would love to try new things but I'm not near ready for a 4some or swapping. However, I feel that being in and getting comfortable as a couple around swingers would open the door to a lot of new experiences for me.
       
      So I was curious how the couples on here would feel about having a non swapping couple around having sex in the same room as them? Does it make a difference to you if there are just 2 couples, more than 2, group sex, or swapping going on in the room? What do you think the best way to go about it would be? Is this something that Swingers in general accept?

      My wife and I love skinny dipping after our youngest is in bed. We have a daughter in college that comes home on some weekends.

      One weekend recently, she surprised us by coming home early after being out with friends and caught my wife and I in the pool, no swim suits of course. She wasn’t freaked out, she actually was cool about it and hung out by the pool a while. She asked if we would mind if she got in for a swim, we said of course. She went in the house(we thought to get in a swim suit of course)  and she came back out wearing a towel which she soon revealed that she also was nude. She is 20 by the way. She said since  we were skinny dipping it would be ok for her to as well. My wife was totally fine with it. I’m ok with it, it just caught me by surprise and off guard to say the least  to the point where I couldn’t look at her at first since it was my daughter. That went away after a bit.
       
      This is the first time she’s went completely nude with us. My wife and I go nude around the house all the time and she would just go around in a T-shirt and panties when she lived at home and when she comes home now. She never had shown an interest in anything more than that before. Am I just over reacting since it was the first time she’s done that and I’m trying to process it? She’s been a free spirit since she was little,  so it shouldn’t be a surprise to me. She knows we’re swingers and we’re both bisexual and she thinks that’s awesome, so I don’t know why I reacted the way I did with the skinny dipping. Any ideas and opinions are welcome
