nudism and exhibitionism
Return to DiscussionsDon't you think to be a nudist you also have to have a slight amount of being a exhibitionist in you? I am not saying being a nudist makes you the other, not at all but to be free enough to walk around nude and socialize with groups, Don't you believe you are a slight exhibitionist as well. I know we love being nude around others and yes indeed there is still a slight thrill involved,,, WE love the sun shining down on our bodies and to be honest we don't care who may see whatever while doing so
WE don't stand in "public" nude to show off but do enjoy standing at the resort etc
what is your thoughts? Don't you think they go hand in hand to a small degree?
T&D
Absolutely they go hand in hand to at least some degree. It's human nature and I truly believe it's ingrained in our DNA and nature's way to continue the species. Plus it's common across all animal species to 'show off'. Again, propagation of species.
We agree with you. But where is the border between nudist and exhibitionist? Staying nude at a mixed (clothing opt.) beach? At the shop in a nude area, where some people are clothed?
We are complete nude on warm days in area, where the most people are nude.
Is it that we like being seen naked OR just don't care? I guess many of us just relax in our naked skin, enjoying nudism no matter who is around (as long as they don't object). That is just feeling free and exposed. Having said that I know I'm a bit of an exhibitionist myself. It's hard to know what I might do which is different.
To a degree, but my wife and I just love being naked, without the bounds of clothes, and we also love being outside, so it stands that others will see us, but we dont do it to be seen by others, but to enjoy being with good friends and free of clothes is something that makes us happy of its own.
I think to be a part exhibitionist would entail wanting to be seen in places where the naked body is not as readily accepted as normal, or that you get a thrill at a conscious thought of other seeing you naked
