Tolerant Nudists
This group is for nudists who are tolerant of others who are not the same as them. For example there are some who have good reasons not to show a picture and others who want a quid-pro-quo picturewise. Some are outgoing whilst others are still finding their feet. Some are sticklers for the rules whilst others are only human. TN has lots of members and the richness is in the veriety

Return to DiscussionsI just assume he's being friendly. I'm a bit of an exhibitionist so anyone can look. I have had textiles obviously staring at me on the beach.
I don't think it matters if they want to look as a nudist comfortable being naked so if they enjoy looking I'm fine with that, I enjoy looking too.
I tend to play it by ear. If they're also naked that's a good start, if they're obviously textile that's not the same. They may be first time visitors to the area and want to check out where nudity is OK, or something similar, I'd be happy to chat with them about that and other nudist related issues, whether they're clothed or naked, I quite frequently find this happening at my local nude beaches.
I'm comfortable in clothing optional situations and don't mind being looked at while naked, as a nudist that comes with my choice to be naked in public. Its obviously a lot easier to be naked in public after a lot of experience. If you openly share nude photos online you have no idea who looks at them, I share them because I see nothing to be embarrassed or ashamed about being a nudist, I like being naked and the photos show me as I prefer to be. I tend to approach being looked at while nude in public in the same way, unless the person who's approached me is over the top in how they look. We probably all set the 'over the top' limit differently, our individual tolerance level.
If I am "legal" where I am, then anyone that wants to look may do so with my acceptance. If they are staring, then perhaps I should be proud? Or perhaps I should look also that I'm not about to be stung by a wasp! If my body gives them pleasure without my even having to do anything, Great! If they want the interaction to be participatory, then I will decide if I want to participate or not. I will not look askance at anyone that approaches or interacts with me in a NOT UNFRIENDLY way. That said, I do appreciate body language. If I sense danger or malfeasance then I will withdraw and go into self protection mode. But someone in a "not unfriendly" posture will be initially accepted. If we don't "click" then I will respectfully and gently end the interaction. I don't "click" with everyone (who does?) but I will give everyone the benefit of the doubt! I don't hide when someone looks at my red tie at church. I don't hide when someone looks at my circumcision! (more likely to see my circumcision than my red tie)
I don't mind anyone looking at me while I am nude. I have on several occassions been the only nude person in group. Being nude is just my life style. Though I try not to be the center of attention, I never felt out of place or embarassed aobut being seen or looked at while nude. I do take pride in being able to gain he attention of others.
Happens to me occasionally and it doesn't generally bother me.
Only once have I been approached by a women and that was fun but odd at the same time.
She was there nude with her boyfriend who when she first greeted me was wearing long board shorts.
During our conversation, it came up that she had just suggested that they go to the beach and didn't tell him it was a clothing optional beach.
He found out when he saw the signs in the parking lot.
After some encouragement from her, he eventually dropped the shorts.
I agree. I am friendly and open to all nudist. However thier are nudist that a prudish and prejudice. I despise these type of nudist. And they shouldn't even call theirselves nudist to begin with. I have dealt with prudish people on this site as well. I wont say thier names. But if you read this. You know who you are and what you did. However to all the friendly nudist out there. Big naked hugs. And I hope to chat and make your acquaintances one day
I don't understand the question. If somebody comes up to talk to me it's a everyday situation. And if I am at a nudist beach I'm naked. If I have a problem with it I shouldn't go to a nudist beach. So why should I evaluate the situation at a nudist beach in another way as in a non-nudist situation?
And even if he comes for a closer look is he then a pervert? I have another understanding what a pervert is.
