RE: when did u first discover you were a nudist

For me, I was 15 in the mid 80's went to a relatives hobby farm where there was a pond that had a dock built for it. One hot early summer day I decided to go for a skinny dip, then sat on the dock to dry in the sun since I didn't bring a towel. Best day of my life, but then repressed it until 11 years ago.

RE: when did u first discover you were a nudist

I was 14 when I remember enjoying sleeping in the nude. Once I started it became an obsession to where I would toss and turn if I was not completely naked. If I was at someone's house, or later on when I was in the Navy and in close quarters, I would slip my underwear off under the covers to sleep. I was the first one home after school so I would finish my homework and chores naked before the others got home. It was nothing sexual, I just felt great being nude. So many people don't understand this but if they gave it a try a lot of them would be hooked I am sure.

Not sure if I can but a date on it. I always preferred to be naked even as a child. Started sleeping naked in college when my roommate said that he began sleeping naked. Been sleeping naked for more almost forty years. Always been naked at home, when possible. I guess my true realization was my first visit to a nudist venue. That sealed it for me. Bought a camper and now I spend every summer with my naked friends at our camp.

I didn't discover I was a nudist until about three or four years ago but had been going naked for much longer than that. I have slept naked for about 10 years prior to that. When I met my gf she had been somewhat of a home nudist and is now interested in possibly venturing out. We are slowly getting our kids adjusted to it and hope they embrace it as a healthy part of their lives also. They have not been raised as nudists so we are aware they may not come along with the change.

I was 7 also. My older sis wanted to compare differences in genders. We both got naked and I have been that way ever since.That isn't nudism. Haven't we all played show me yours and I'll show you mine (or doctors and nurses) as children? I've been getting naked in all sorts of ways all my life. But I didn't know I was a nudist until I joined TN a few years ago.

I can remember questioning about being nude but due to hang ups about it (probably from some childhood abuse), I never went through with it. Throughout life I would be nude in private once in a while. When I turned 55 I said screw it and I'm full time nudist. It's hard though because it is illegal in my state and I don't want to go to jail and maybe lose my job.

I first discovered I was a nudist in Oct 1976, 40 years ago. Hubby and I were often nude at home and when we took a vacation in Florida, hubby really wanted to visit a nude resort. I agreed to 'try it'. Within 15 minutes of being nude in a social setting, I became a nudist for life.

When I was a team I would sit by the river naked
Sometimes I would ride bike naked in the woods
It felt great
So I then went to a pine section of the forest
and strip. I would just sit there for hours enjoying myself.
After I left home I didn't have the forest anymore
so then I started to wait till about 3. Or 4 am
And sit on my balkenandy nude
To this day every chance I get I drop my clothes
About three years ago I stopped wearing
Underwear. I like the freedom.

I was 20 years old and went to a nude beach for the first time. This was in Florida. I realized that I was a nudist when I felt my stress and social roles slip away while at that beach. It wasn't what I had expected.

While on a business trip to L. A. I went to San Diego for the weekend. While there, discovered Black's Beach. As soon as I took off my clothes I knew I was a nudist. That was in 1988.
