Older Male Nudists

Maturity has its advantages--we grow in wisdom and self-acceptance with each passing year. As older males we're able to relax and enjoy life, let go of work pressures and everyday tedium. Being nudists enriches our lives even more, since it enables us to accept the changes in our bodies and physicality. Role model, mentor, or daddy: all are new ways others see and relate to us. We're able...

When was your first time you realized you actually wanted to live the nudist life style? I believe mine was about 30 years ago. I've always loved being nude, but I feel I actually became a nudist then.

I was about age six when I realized i enjoyed being nude. My father delivered magazines to stores and often times I would sit in his truck and look at mags. I came across some mags that were about nudist and the pics were people enjoying the nude life at resorts. I always thought that one day I'd try it. I have and enjoy it like I thought I would.

More of a gradual transition, can't pick a time.
Been consistently sleeping nude for almost 30 years and intermittent nude swimming for about the same amount of time.
Spend more time nude at home since I retired almost 3 years ago.

Age 10 comes to mind. However I had few opportunities to go nude until I was in the military in Germany and lived off base. The Germans seemed more tolerant of social nudity. I just remembered that we didnt wear swimming suits in swim classes when I was in high school in Kenosha, Wisconsin. I started going to nude beaches around age 30 and have continued since.

Likewise
It has definitely been a gradual transition taking advantage of opportunities as the came

I do however vividly remember that first nude surf. The feeling was absolutely fantastic. Have been nude in surf many many times and always love it but nothing quite achieves the same sensation as that first time of sting waves crashing over the naked body.

When you finally get sick of NOT doing it.
I've been wanting to live as nature intended for about 10years
Finally I got the courage to go to a clothing optional beach and let it all hang out.It was amazing,
I felt FREE and being not much of one for socialising. I felt comfortable amongst others for the first time ever. Then I found a little hide away called River Island in NSW Australia.Here I stayed for 1 week, Wanted to stay for ever.Living as a TrueNudist.
Met some great people, and just really enjoyed life for the first time in a long time. Can't wait to go back again

Starting from occasional beach nudity, I have drifted into a nude lifestyle so gradually that there wasn't really a first time for this.

It was the YMCA and the requirement to be naked to swim for lessons or at other times. Then it was going to the YMCA boys camp which required all camp males up to and including the camp director to be at the beach of their lake nude with a bar of Ivory soap (it floats) to assure that at least once each week everyone gets a bath. It was educational to see nude males at all stages of development! I enjoyed it so much that I even went nude to the daily morning dips!

What other activities beside swimming were done nude at your YMCA?
