Kudos for everyone's points. I find myself in the category of being at home and comfortable nude but yet wanting the touch and feel (and hug) of another nude male (regardless of my sexual preference).

I want to add that the being nude and around other nudists there is a basic level of love, equality and sharing. We could add to the old 60's slogan: "make love not war" and say "being nude ain't rude" or "have you hugged nudist today? ". For those who have been in the lifestyle many a moon, you understand that there's less of a chance of violence (unless extreme alcohol or drugs are involved). Being nude eliminates the chances of gang turf war-no gang colors to fight over!
