Celebrating Nude Recreation Week – I went bathing in the hot springs and tomorrow I am going to watch Act Naturally in Denver. What are you doing?

We’re all naked in the shower or bathtub and it’s just no big deal. So why do you like to be naked all the time? And why with other people around???

I got into a discussion with someone about whether or not it is beneficial for nudism if nude beaches made nudity mandatory rather than clothing optional. This brought up the question I feel is important to ask all other fellow nudists. Are you more comfortable at places that enforce nudity as a requirement or would you prefer them to be clothing optional?

I get this question all the time from my good friend / property manager. The other day he came over to do a repair on the bathroom sink at a time I was not entirely prepared for company. I hurriedly rushed to the bathroom to conceal an intimate object I had left out in the open. He became aware of what I was doing and questioned my motives as to why I would be open and unashamed about letting others see me naked; however, I was shy about revealing my sex life. So, I am opening this question up to all other nudists…Are you just as open about your sex life as you are being naked in front of others?

I’ve been to clothing optional events with friends in all types of environments and one thing I’ve noticed is there is some sort of not so subtle expectation to disrobe. After all it is a clothing optional event, right? Which means there must be someone willing to be the first to take their clothes off in front of everyone. Have you ever felt pressured to be naked in a social setting as described above? Have you ever felt pressured to get naked when it was more comfortable participating with the clothes that you arrived in?
