Why are people so afraid of nudity
Return to DiscussionsApparently no woman is allowed not to have body issues according to the media and other idiots. Check out this article in today's Sacramento Bee titled "Women, bikinis and Serena Williams". The general mindset in this country causing people to feel this way is pathetic.

I have body image issues - I have never been in this bad of shape in my life - I have a huge abdominal hernia from successful colon cancer surgery and then had a complete abdominal wall reconstruction twice and failed both times
Can't exercise much as I can not walk more than a few minutes at a time - Spent 2-3.5 hours a day in pool in winter 4-6 days a week and list no weight
HOWEVER I have gotten old enough to not care what others think, and the less I care what others think the happier I am THEREFORE I'm going to be nude when and where I can
I do hate the way my body looks, have never been in this bad of shape in my life, BUT on the other hand, I enjoy nudity enough, don't give a damn, and am thankful for the true nudists that accept a person without regard to what their nude body looks like so I plan on being bare as much as I can get away with and want to find more nude friends to spend time with and share nude times and not be judged for how I look.....
people will wear clothing that leaves nothing to the imagination but the thought of going nude is taboo.
Its those nasty penises, vaginas and female breasts. Even though many males have bigger breasts than the women...LOL. The breast feeding movement is helping a bit.
Somewhere back in olden days of yore it was decided, Queen Victoria perhaps, that skin was nasty. These people even clothed table legs so people wouldn't have impure thoughts. We have evolved somewhat, but the concept of full nudity is still about nasty thoughts. Besides, with the clothing and swim wear now it can accentuate or hide whatever body parts you choose and we don't see the real you. Those outfits are about exhibitionism.
Basically, people are afraid of the nude body and all its flaws. I worked with a couple of guy who specifically took band so they wouldn't have to go to gym in high school and take a shower. Real people showing real nudity is not pretty to them and you'll hear comments about how they would see too many people who shouldn't be nude int eh first place. I'll save the organized religion guilt trip for another day.
..... The first thing that any nudist will tell you is that it's really not a big deal. After you've gone out and tried it for the first time you realize that it only seems natural.
I very much agree with this. It is easy to get used to being nude with other people, whether its in an all nude environment like a club, or more publicly at a clothing optional beach or something like a WNBR. To me it feels natural to be naked anywhere I can be, no matter who else is around, I don't have issues with others knowing that I'm a nudist, or seeing me naked.
When others aren't in this position, that is when its harder to be open about nudity. Its a shame that textile society often interprets nudity negatively and nudists are placed in positions where their nudism could cause problems, for example - work-related reasons.
Body images, more than puritainistic upbringing I suspect. The advertising media showing us what to expect. Most of us want to be open, but we are lead to believe our bodies are substandard, therefore we are, sad to say, ashamed,though we may be perfect. Such is life; sooner or later we will become aware, and not care anymore.
