The Difference Nudity Made
Im sure most dads and sons find ways of bonding whether its a camping trip or through sports or whatever. But I think that nudism / naturism really enhances the connections between father and son and forges much closer bonds.
In my case my dad wasnt a nudist (though Im sure hed have loved to be! My mother was a religion-obsessed puritan so I think he was just keeping the peace for all our sakes!
But, at my request, he often bathed me right up to my teens, and by 11 I was a regular at a male nude sunbathing place Id discovered so he saw the lack of a tanline. When he commented with a smile I told him about the place and he was cool with it. Other fathers would have banned me from going there but once he knew I was safe and happy there he was cool with it. And yes, other dads would have interrogated me about who was there and what they did, but he was more wise and more gentle, and so I didnt have to conceal anything from him and could tell him anything without fear. He loved me just as I was, and asking him to continue bathing me as I got older was as near to nudism with him as I could get. I loved those times. Being naked ( even though Dad only bared his top half ) definitely made those times of bonding with my dad extra special and led to complete openness about my feelings and everything that was ever on my mind. Many times the baths had to be heated up repeatedly as our heart to heart chats went on and on. He died when I was a young man. How I wish hed lived to see me and his grandsons nudist and free!
