Way to go cactus couple!!,
you also chimed in with others who have said, being naked with our wives more, just adds greater enjoyment and togetherness in our marriage.
as some have hinted at, and I will say outright, we are making love more often, as a side benefit.
and, as many have said, nudity is not sexual, it is a state of mine. but it does ad spice to life and marriage too.
hey, andy, you nude driver you. . . .have you ever been stopped by the CHP/PD for a traffic violation - while nude?that might make a good story.dan
Because of my profession, I've spoken to CHP officers, local PD officers, Sheriff Deputies ... most law enforcement agencies I've dealt with in my 32 years as a firefighter. NOT a one told me it was illegal to drive naked but if I was doing something lewd, that was illegal. I asked if someone saw me just driving naked, would they respond. EVERY cop I talked to said, "we've got better things to do than respond to someone simply driving naked."
As for me, being a Christian. I think i am drawn to nudist behavior out of wondering what life would have really be like if Adam & Eve obeyed God and didn't bite the apple. Would we all be living life as wr know it now, only to use clothing only as a tool as we need to in some professions. Like firefighters. I do think many people are way too prudish and need to grow up some. If we can look at every animal without clothes. And we all see dogs ant cats doing everything naked including peeing and pooping. Humping and sleeping, sometimes even many times in a big group together. We don't automatically think they are having orgies. And dogs even stick their noses in butts and smell them.
Over the last few years exploring nudity i have enjoyed the excapement for the daily norms of life. In stressful times when i have time to strip down, or even look at so many other nudists in pictures having fun moments without clothes. It kindof like a mini ME vacation.
My biggest hangup with thinking of everyone being naked all the time, is seeing others hygen habits. I currently work with some very big fat slobs. That would make me cringe to be naked with. I have noticed people that don't shower or bathe so often and you look down at their feet and you can see the dark in between their toes.
I have often thought it would be great if there would be nude Churcjes, plane flights, and restaurants. But, the first thing I would require everyone to do is run through a shower before, worshiping, flying, or eating.
Sorry for rambling on.
I don't know that there is an actual list that I could convey. Perhaps the scope of my mind is too limited to come up with enough reasons, but for me the answer would be:
1. Freedom
Freedom from societal stereotypes. Freedom from the confines of clothing. Freedom to feel the air and sun on my body.
Why am I a nudist ? I started with my father he was in the Military and loved his nude beaches but mom didn't lol so when we was stationed with him I was asked (told) lol to go with him . then you asked what do I get out of it ? I get to remember the fond memory's of the friends I made and the Bonding memory's with my father .
1. I like the feeling of the skin, you also develop your sense of touch when you're nude
2. only the naked person is the real person, you develop your character when you are naked
3. in social situations you are free, honest and open
The streaking back in the 70's got me started. That turned into long runs for x-country and track through the fields and feeling the breeze dry my body. All my friends would be dressed long before me. Later it turned into putting my stress on a shelf for a while when military/civilian jobs took their toll on my peace of mind. Now, 50 years later, it lowers my BP (I have hooked myself up and checked) and signals that all is right in my world.
Best I've ever heard it described is "barefoot all over".
