I think most kids are natural nudist, they just get told starting at young age that being naked and the body is bad or dirty, then they grow up with a negative self body image....so sad. Glad your boys are just the opposite. Hope they don't grow out of that.
This is so very true. Weve raised our two sons naturist and with only positive attitudes to their male bodies and nature.
Illogical shame is a harmful learnt behaviour and we decided that we would never teach that to our sons. So our naturist and shame free family life meant that the boys always felt comfortable and confident naked with us and our friends and so they stayed naturist and free right through all the different stages of development and never had any negative attitudes or stresses about their bodies etc etc. And that was a joy for us all.
And of course people who dont have negative feelings about themselves and their own bodies, feelings and sexuality etc tend to also have more positive attitudes to everyone else too! So this approach helps to produce happy, well-rounded people when those kids grow up.
Its such a terrible thing to teach kids shame and fear rather than a sense of celebrating their bodies and feeling proud and happy to be nude.

People continue to ask me what it's like for them. Honestly, it's not a thing. Being nude or clothed is inconsequential to their lives each day. Right now it is 7AM on a Sunday morning and I and one of the boys are hanging around nude while another is wearing shorts. They're both wrapped up in eating breakfast and watching morning shows anxious to go into the pool today (it rained overnight). Nothing else is a thought. That's the way it should be.I think most kids are natural nudist, they just get told starting at young age that being naked and the body is bad or dirty, then they grow up with a negative self body image....so sad.

Exactly! Its a joy that, like my own sons have, your boys are growing up with nude as their normal. Its a non-issue for them. They are truly free from the nasty, illogical body shame that blights so many lives. What a gift youre giving them as their dad! You might describe them as being native to nudity as opposed to having to have made a journey to nude freedom. How many dads and sons wish they could experience the life youre having with your boys! Enjoy every moment!
