RE: Cuddling, kissing and showing other signs of affection.

LOL!!! You guys are too much. Now Phil, you KNOW we even delayed our supernudist posting until your certification came through, because we didn't want to surpass you by becoming the first CERTIFIED supernudists. Besides, there are two of us posting, we don't NEED to hiccup on purpose! LOL, you will always be full of more hot air and opinions (and, ok, I'll admit it - useful advice and information), than the two of us put together!

Now BACK TO THE QUESTION AT HAND!!!

MandS - our personal opinion is non-sexualdisplays of affection are acceptable, as long as it doesn't offend the local customs (and end up getting you into trouble).

Wewould love to hear other peoples thoughts, viewpoints and opinions on the matter of PDA's!

Hugs, kisses and cuddles,

Jen and Steve

It is not right for gay couples.

RE: Cuddling, kissing and showing other signs of affection.

Randy and I were also wondering about this. Recently we went to Rock Haven nudist retreat in Murfreesboro, TN and while we had a great time, we were very careful to not get too close to eachother or to do anything more than hold hands. We are very cuddly people and we usually walk with our arms around eachother and if we are on a couch or something we are always cuddling. We didn't know if this type of behavior would be appropriate so we just refrained from it. We both went home feeling like the experience would have been a lot better if we didn't feel like we would get in trouble for hugging. I understand sexual activities are strictly forbidden in public areas, but thats not the kindof stuff we were wanting to do anyways.
I feel like if we had gone on a weekend when there were more people we would have been able to follow the examples of others better, but we attended on a wednesday and there were very few people there. This thread helped clear some things up, but I guess the only thing we can do is follow the example within our comfort zone of those who are members of the camp.

To Naturally and Kurt, all I can think to say is sarcasm here. It hardly requires any thought to figure out how far off the mark you guys are. Gays kiss each other FOR EXACTLY THE SAME REASON THAT ANYBODY DOES. Geez. Kurt, how can you think they just do it to offend? Does that mean that they are secretly straight and just pretending so they can cause a ruckus? I amUSED to men and women kissing so it doesn't offend. Most people are USED to clothed people so nude ones sometimes offend. If you are homophobic then it might scare you. But certainly, you are not USED to it so their kissing might shock you. It's just kissing. Chill out and as nudists, you should be ashamed of yourselves for judging people on your own personal biases. Don't bring your prejudices here or atleast, air them as a discussion and not as truths. You obviously don't know the truths in this matter. Meet some gay folks. Get to know them and then come back and tell us what you've discovered. When you love someone, you want to kiss them and if that person happens to be the same sex, then gosh, it just might follow that you'd still want to kiss them no matter what the narrowminded in the vicinity might think. Whoops, there goes the sarcasm, could only hold it back for so long.

We realize that a lot of gays show PDA for the same reason others do, but we have noticed that a lot do do it just for the shock factor. But then again we have been known to do things for the same reason. We hear lots of nudists say we should be accepting of otherslifestyles as we want others to be accepting of ours. But the same people frown upon other peoples lifestyles whether they be gay, swinging, or what ever else you are not accustomed to. We are used to seeing PDA and even a lot more and neither offend us. We also understand the need for discression in public venues, especialy when children are present and know how to act approprietely. Wealso understand that we are an even smaller minority than nudists alone and wonder if we would be given the same consideration others are being asked to give?

Dont worry about what other people think they are probably jealous if it feels natural and good do it cuddling kissing and hugs are good for you Bob
Sex is good for you and feels goodtoo, but we understand it's not appropriate everywhere.

RE: Cuddling, kissing and showing other signs of affection.

We have noticed that PDA at it's different levels is accepted very differently depending on the location and audience. Hugging and even kissing a friend hello at the beach is usually acceptable, but not so muchat workor in church. We both like PDA, both between us to express our love for one another as well as with friends to show our affection and appreciation for them. We will both hug friends and even people we meet for the first time, same sex or opposite,whether in a nude or textile environment. However we usually only kiss those of the opposite sexas isour preferance which is probably due to our upbringing. We act this way largely so we don't offend those around us, but this is a fine line, becuase we know there are people who are offended by us just being nude and we have no intention of stopping that. So, what to do? We think for the most part as long as we do what is legalin a particularenvironment we will do OK. We will also fight to defend our liberties so as not to loose them.

If you cannot do something because you are nude that would be perfectly alright if you had clothes on, then what fun would it be to get nude?
