Nude in a block of small Flats
Return to DiscussionsHi everyone.
I live on my own in a smallblock of 12 flats. I live on the ground floor and was wondering about peoples thoughts on doing everyday things like collecting the post and putting out the rubbish nude. I do when I'm in collect the post nude as the mailboxes are by the entrance and the other day I did put the rubbish out in the shared bins out in the street. This did mean going outside into my estate but it was brief and at night.I was just wondering about other peoples thoughts on this topic and has does anyone else do the same
Lucky you that you have neighbours who know and are accepting you for it, but may not want to see you naked. I also do check before venturing out as there a lots of flats in this estate so it's impossible to see everyone. I do know that people may not mind but don't want to see if if they have a choice.
I also want to tell some of my neighbours in my block so it will be easier for me to use the communal garden.
I went out this morning at 2am putting the rubbish out and unknown to me one of my neighbours was coming in. He did ask what I was doing out at that time in the morning and obviously naked. I did explain I was a nudist but because he was obviously surprised and may be a bit taken aback he said ok in that strange way and went inside.
Now my intention was and is not to shock of offend anyone so hopefully when I see him again there will be no problems.
I'd say the question is really about how you get on with your neighbours generally. Only you really know what you can share with them and what you can't. All the best, anyway. I hope that they are all accepting and look forward to hearing more.
As I'm now more confident in going out in my garden, I took some pics in the communal garden !!
Don't let the fact that you are now comfortable naked in a public place relax the proper level of vigilance against offending people. I have sometimes allowed that to happen although luckily so far it has had no adverse consequences.
Well I'll know when I see him next. I know I am now more comfortable in public however I sill will be vigilant about offending anyone. I need people to see this is a life style choice and not something to shock people.#
I do get on with him and hopefully what happened won't affect that.
I am all for being nude every second of everyday and every where you are or go. Just a word of caution to the people who live or visit the locations that have no laws against being nude in public. 1.) the country / state / or local law may say it is ok to be nude in public, but you must check all the laws for the area, for example I have seen where state law says you can legallybe nude in public anytime anywhere as long as you are not doing anything inappropriate. However, local (Town and/or Village) law says it is illegal to be nude in public under any circumstances. I have also seen laws written that say it is legal to be nude in public as long as no one complains, and if someone complains then it is illegal. Here is another law where I live that is an example of how laws can be very vague and cause problems for nudist. In New York State it was written for strip and/or adult entertainment clubs if there is nudity in the club you can not sell liquor. So here is the dilemma, we had a very successful nude bowling event about a year ago, the place we had the event at has a NYS liquor license. There was no liquor served or brought in to the bowling alley. We had pop, coffee, tea, and water to drink. All food was brought in by the nudist. So anyway the law says that if you serve liquor you can have nude people there. This was a private party only the nudist who were pre-registered were allowed in and the doors were locked. However, because of the law and how it is written and the vagueness the owner of the establishment was afraid of loosing his liquor license, and therefore will not allow us to schedule another event there. We also inquired with the NYS liquor authority and they don't understand the meaning of the law fully so they could not say if have a nudist event would put the liquor license in jeopardy for this business if he got caught.So anyway you have to look at all laws and all angles that those laws could take or mean.
