Problem for a newbie, aroused when naked

So I've recently realised that I like the idea of naturism, and want to practice it. I think this will help me to gain extra confidence in myself and overall become more happy as a person. I would also love to be part of that community when I am an adult.

But here's my problem, when I am naked, I am almost always aroused. This arousal can vary, sometimes it will just be light, other times it will be quite strong.

I think this is down to two main things, the fact that I am still going through puberty (I was a late bloomer) therfore my hormones are all over the place doing what they please. The second thing is that for the last few years, I have always associated nudity with sexuality, and in my case, masturbation. The fact that I want to break this habit is another reason I want to practice naturism.

How can I break this habit? I really think it will help my health and general well-being to think of nudity in a more natural way.

Sorry for any spelling/grammar mistakes if there are any :)

You will be very surprised that the problem pretty much goes away in a social nudity setting. Just do it, someplace where you can talk with and interact with a variety of people, and get out of your own head.

His second sentence says it all. He has lack of confidence. So he feels that by discussing his erection and masturbation and bringing attention to himself will change that. Like I have posted before..... It isnt the erection that is offensive. Its the flaunting and and bragging thats the offenisve. Your a big boy now. Yes the world knows big boys get erections but personally we dont care. Now your insecurity to me has now turned my thoughts of you as a perv. One that decent nude people would avoid.
