the first thing people need to know about nudism is that the #1 practitioners of it are wrinkly old people
Yep. Totally agree. Part of being a nudist is accepting all bodies.
just an exhibitionist.
I’ve found worst people… the ones that are not even exhibitionists, but they don’t even get nude, they only want to stare at hot people naked and get angry/offended when they see a body that barely escapes their definition of perfection.
it’s a question of safety/feeling safe, both for you and for the other person
Yeah, I thinki that might be it. I still cannot put it into words but I think what you’re saying is reasonable. If I don’t know them I’m not really concerned with what they will think of me or think at all in the situation. If I know them, I know they won’t judge me and are ok with me being naked around. But when I barely know them I guess I feel enough compromise to care what they think about but I don’t know them enough to feel ok.
I think seeing me strip down for skinny dipping unprompted made her uncomfortable - probably the last time I will ever be so careless in who I’m nude around.
Yeah, I know that feeling. Not in HS, but at the Uni, me and my GF knew a girl from one of our courses. She was more like a common friend than one of hers exclusively so I felt enough confidence around her. Once we invited her home to talk and drink. I worked after school so the plan was to take a shower and leave the girls alone for the night. I went to take a shower and I was dumb enough to come out of the shower when they were talking in the living room (our apartment was a rat-hole, super small and the only bathroom’s door lead to the hallway that connected the kitchen, our room and the living room). I mean, I wasn’t even naked. I had a towel covering my junk but that was enough for our friend to get angry, leave and she totally stopped talking to me. My GF also got mad cus she thought I was trying to make the move on our friend right there but honestly I was simply stupid enough to come out of the shower at the wrong time.
Not nudes per-se but once I found the IG of one of my sister’s HS friends and she had lots of risquee pics. The same with a coworker some years ago. Again, not nudes but found out she had an OF account.
