Loss of Nudist Values?
One of the main reasons Nudism caught my eyes was because of the idea of people accepting me for who I am, not how I look. I do not have the perfect body, but nudism made me learn to be comfortable with my body. Now I have met some people on this site who I consider to be some of my dearest friends. Recently though I have been noticing that a lot of the newer people joining this site don't seem to get the idea. I have been ignored, teased, and even told I should not be nude because heavier people naked makes him want to throw up, and this is all from people on this site. Maybe I missed the memo that to be a nudist now, you have to be in shape, have a six pack, and rock hard abs.But I'm sticking to my values and the reasons I became a nudist, I', comfortable with who I am and how I look, and I respect every one no matter their body or how they look. I don't know if anyone else has this problem or notices it, but it's getting annoying. Sorry about the rant, but had to get it out.
Not being on Your friends list I can't see what you look like. Are these people your "friends" or are they in the chat room? What they need to learn is that people are real - not models but real. And real people come in all shapes and sizes. It is veriety that adds spice to life. And that applies to nudists just as it applies to anyone else.
Ignore them. nobody is perfect, especially those who think they are. Like you, I value nudity because it lets me be my (imperfect) self with nothing hidden.
Valid point Josh. I find some people get it and some don't. As a large guy, I find some of the new members will friend me and a couple of days later drop me. So be it. I became a nudist because I have nothing to hide. I accept myself the way I am. I accept everyone the way they are. If someone can't handle it, too bad for them. Don't let them change the way you think.
I find the block option is very good for such situations. If nothing else makes you feel better as you press the button. Jests aside, i encourage you to also flag such users as they are fake in the sense they are not true to the naturist principles.
