Unfortunately, none of my close friends know I'm nudist. There are a few guys I steam in a sauna with regularly during the winter. We're all nude in the sauna. No big deal. We sit and talk and enjoy each others' company. I enjoy being around others nude. I think, for nudists, being nude should be a natural feeling. I can certainly see it being awkward for the non-nudist. But, as many have said, once you break that barrier, it's so much easier and frees you so much.
I lived in an all male residence in university and then my fraternity house. All the modesty that I had was knocked out of me. It helped me to become a nudist. And I still have morning wood. Every morning. I think that's healthy.
While i was away on a carribbean cruise..I managed to inform my cruise roomates that i liked to be nude after a shower in the evenings before we got dressed fo the evening shows or dinner depending on the night (smart or casual smart). Due to the humity of the carribbean it helped to be naked for a n hour or so, the same in the mornings as i would be the 1st one up so i sat on the balcony to read naked while waiting for my roomates to wake up :)Last may i managed to be naked almost all day for 6 days at a clothing option villa in Spain for a nude yoga retreat, only dressed up again during the cooler evenings andearly morning chills
been naked with my friends for awhile ... no problem. Just being comfortable and relaxed.sometimes someone gets a hard on ... it's no problem.Love being naked with them ... no sex .. sometimes a JO session ... but it's just having fun
At the firehouse it's just expected that all will be nude. Open showers and sleeping quarters pretty much make it so there isn't much you and your workmates don't know about each other. Women sleep separately so not sure what they do.
