since I'm shaved down there that might really offend some so I didn't either.
I had the same concern 30 years ago when I first started shaving down there and would visit a nude beach. But never had a negative reaction to it and eventually more and more men began that grooming practice. On the other hand, people are far more easily offended these days. But, isnt that their problem?
I aim to stop this practice from dying, I strip off when I enter the pool change room, wander and get ready to go swimming naked. Then after training, I come back in, soap up, strip off and shower, wander again until I'm dry and ready to leave. I do dress to walk out in public. Sometimes chat with people while I'm there and stay relaxed, it's natural.
I am nude in the gym locker room for as long as possible. I often see other guys are doing the same. Sometimes I will be chatting with another guy and the both of us are nude, same as if we were at a nude resort or beach. I am shaved and some guys will take a glance, two have asked me about it. I just tell them that I am a nudist and it is often seen among nudists. I have been talking with one of the guys that has started thinking of being a nudist.
