Ill let the rest of the world know. Problem solved.
I posted something about that experiment about a month ago, and will repeat it here:I posted something about a friend of mine who used a cock-and-ball ring, which he claimed made him more comfortable by pulling his scrotum forward so that his balls didn't get in the way of his sitting down or moving. One of the posters on the thread scoffed at the idea.Well, I was cleaning out my garage a couple of weeks ago and found some rings, one of which was about 2 inches in diameter. On a whim, I put it on to see if it made a difference. As it happened, I went on a weekend camp-out at a nudist resort here, and wore it much of the time. My pubic hair concealed it from public view, although at this particular resort, it would have been tolerated if it were visible.Result: it did what my friend claimed. It wasn't as marked on my body as it was on his, because his scrotum was larger than mine, but it definitely got the testicles more out of the way when I was sitting. Erotic effect: zero. Pleasure effect: almost nil, although I did feel it, and liked the small difference it made, simply because it was different than the usual sensation. Much like wearing contact lenses or a watch, it's something you feel but don't notice it once the novelty wears off.
BTW, I'm wearing the ring right now. And I'm home, and not in a position to send sexual signals to anybody right now. But it does make sitting more comfortable. But there's so much variation in the size and hang of the scrotum that I would never claim that it's for everybody. When you tell the world, be sure to include that remark.
I do admit that in most cases, a man wearing a simple cock ring is calling attention to his penis. In my previous remarks, I said that I would try to persuade that person that his cock ring is out of place on a normal nude beach or resort.I also pointed out that a simple cock-and-ball ring can also be worn as not a sexual signaling device but a means of comfort. And I have gone so far as to test that theory and have found it valid. So I'm going to make allowances for that.
Woodsman, all I want to know is how you tell the difference?
Answer that honestly and you might just change my mind. Dont say ask them because as we know people lie about their motives.

The honest answer is that I can't, any more than I can ask somebody if they're an exhibitionist or a voyeur and always expect to get an honest answer. I don't have any idea of what's going on in their heads. I just have to evaluate them on their behavior, and try not to jump to conclusions. If they're wearing ornate genital jewelry, I'm probably going to assume that they're sending out sexual signals, just like you would. If it's a simple cock-and-balls ring, I'm probably not going to assume that. If it's non-genital ornamentation, like earrings or studs or finger rings or lipstick or eye shadow, I'm going to assume than the wearer likes wearing that sort of thing.
As for changing minds, I don't expect to change anybody's mind about anything. I'm just asking folks to understand where I'm coming from, and what the local rules are for that sort of thing. That's all.

Woodsman, none of these things are sold as a sex aid from sex shops. A simple cock and ball ring, is.
So when the rest of the world sees you or one of your trussed up friends youll understand how the world views your behaviour as a nudist. But as always, the rest of the world is wrong because you are wearing it for non sexual purposes. We all just non our head and sarcastically say, of course you are.
This is the part of this whole thread that just boggles my mind. The attitude that rest of the world be dammed this is how I see it so it is right and truth and fact.But as always, the rest of the world is wrong because you are wearing it for non sexual purposes. We all just non our head and sarcastically say, of course you are.

Actually, the ring I was describing earlier was one I got at my local hardware store.
But I see your point. Ears and fingers and toes and lips are not sexualized in our culture. (Although in times past, things like bare shoulders or ankles could raise a tizzy.) Cocks and nipples and labia are. So, in our culture, these things should not bear adornments, and some people are going to get their knickers in a twist if they encounter such things.

Woodsman thats a bit sad and concerning, Im going to assume that what you bought from the hardwear store is not designed for the uses you are putting it to, Ill refer you back to my earlier statement about sheep farmers. If you really need to wear a cock and ball ring, buy one that was designed for that use, itll be safer. Like I said, Amazon do them and no one will know are shopping for sex aids.
Im glad that you have finally admitted that guys in cock rings are not promoting nudism by unnecessarily upsetting other nudist buy their selfish exhibitionism. Although ironically, nudist getting their knickers in a twist is not the analogy Id have used.

True. It just happened to serve the purpose for the experiment. I see no need to go to a sex-toy purveyor, since I don't consider it the necessity that my friend did. But those who want one can certainly use the outlets you mentioned.Im glad that you have finally admitted that guys in cock rings are not promoting nudism by unnecessarily upsetting other nudist buy their selfish exhibitionism.

I couldn't think of any other metaphor. The American equivalent of "getting your undies in a bunch" wasn't any better.
Another example of why this discussion is so important and why the live and let live attitude is problematic for nudism. The controversy around a nudist club right to have families and kids at events is fueled by groups looking for any reason at all to brand nudists as sexual fiends. This interview with the owner of Bare Oaks Naturist Park addresses the issue head on. The one line I heard that is super important is nudity is a means not the aim.
