Why I Love Being Naked
Return to Discussions1. Freedom, when I'm naked I'm no longer chained by cloths.2. Feels great (the feeling of the wind, sun, and everything else on my naked body is very pleasant)3. Excitement, the fact that I am exposing myself is so thrilling and the fact that someone can easily see me in the nude is arousing. Just the thought of being naked in public excites me!4. I'm being me! I'm the way I was brought into this world, why should I be ashamed of my body? I should embrace it! After all God made me this way.5. Doing everyday activities is much more fun. Working out naked is fantastic, so it walking around naked, eating naked, watching TV naked and playing video games naked! Naked, naked, NAKED! :)6. Being naked helps my skin breath, especially in my..."private" area.7. It's beautiful! My body is a work of art and I really want to share it with the world.8. I just love calling myself a nudist even if it's part time9. It's courageous, most would never even think about walking around with nothing on, b/c they are too afraid of what others think. People need to stop being ashamed of their bodies and just take it all off! It's not sexual it's natural, in a good way.10. It also helps me relax, I love siting outside in the nude at night, I feel at one with nature and I sleep a lot better naked!

That is brilliantly put. They are all the reasons I enjoy being naked. For me it is the only natural way to be. Incidentally there are practical advantages like it's easier gong to the toilet or getting washed and it matters a lot less if I splash myself with paint or something else. The only minuses are the need to turn the heat up in winter and the possibility of being arrested.
I've often heard the phrase "I'm nude under my clothing" and thought what a fake. But the more I talk to people (mostly textile) about my nudity the more I realise it is a frame of mind. Everyone gets naked at sometimes, even textiles. But they worry about their body image or see their nude body as something private and intimate. Us nudists don't have those hang-ups. Some may be starting out and a bit shy. But, after venturing into social nudity, we don't care who sees us naked. So nudity isn't about how often or where we are naked. It is about our frame of mind. and, yes, we can be nude under our clothing.

I agree, Olly, its very liberating to experience social nudity and not care about who sees us naked, whether they're fellow nudists or passing textiles. Having this frame of mind enable us to enjoy those freedoms of comfort and relaxation fully that I've only felt as a nudist, nudism takes us to new levels that I've never experienced as well in textile settings.
I can think of a number of people I know who were new to social nudism who got beyond that initial shyness and are now completely relaxed about being nude in public, its great to see this happen. Its often been the case that newcomers adapt to social nudity quicker at somewhere like a nudist club than at a public nude beach, usually for the obvious reasons associated with everyone being nudists at a club. However, the same people have often been been more cautious during initial visits to public nude beaches, its great to witness them adapting to more public nudity and loosing those hang-ups about their bodies being something private. Once their physical shyness is lost their mental openness seems to increase accordingly, a well-known state that longer-term nudists often cite as a reason for them enjoying life as nudists.

How true! I think that's what keeps most textiles from shedding their clothes and spending time nude, even in their own homes. How many folks are afraid to venture outside their bedrooms naked due to thoughts of so-and-so finding out they walk around naked? Is so-and-so really going to find out, and if they do, is it any of their business!?

I'm totally in agreement with ALL the above. If only more people here can be like that ... be themselves and comfortable in their skin.
So please, those with blank profiles (no intro, no write-up, no photos - nothing) and profiles with only clothed/face/scenery photos or worse, fake photos - please do something.
This is after all, a social nudist website.
