RE:Why are you naked?

been running free since the day I was born- Euro-minded farming family- old school and all this thrill of being naked, being seen, driving naked and all the rest of this "culture" never entered my life. It is just how I am. Had I had n y dithers, I'd have been born with a sharp Summer silk 90s double breasted Euro-cut BLACK suit,.., but Hugo Boss was not in business in 1957. THAT would be a great look to be born in tho!

RE:Why are you naked?

This is such a necessary conversation. Thank you for asking it so openly.

For me, nudism is about freedom, not fantasy. Its a return to simplicity, a mental reset, and a way to reconnect with my body without judgment. I find peace in being nude, especially in nature not because its thrilling, but because its authentic.

That said, Ive definitely noticed how motivations can vary particularly among men and I think its important to draw a clear line between genuine naturism and exhibitionism or sexual intent. Theres nothing wrong with sexuality but social nudity should be grounded in respect, boundaries, and shared values.

If someones goal is to arouse or be aroused in public naturist spaces, Id say that crosses into a different realm entirely, one that doesnt belong in mainstream nudism. Consent and intention matter.

Were not here to perform or be pursued. Were here to exist, honestly and without shame.

It would be great to hear from others who feel the same, especially men who live the lifestyle for the peace it brings, not the attention it might get.

Mostly I'm naked now as an adult because of being exposed to it at a young age during a sleepover at a friend's house. I was able to spend a week with them and got to really like not wearing clothes. Stuck with me the rest of my life and the more I spend time with them.
