I love being naked. But bein a "BBW", and getting weird looks clothed, I'm very nervous about being nude in front of others. Most of the drumming circles and/or camping events I attend and some people start peeling off clothing.. none of them are bigger. I've gotten a far as shirtless, but my self-consciousness has hindered me. I'd love to hear some feedback. Perhaps someone out there who feels the same as me, or maybe a kind word.
thank you sweetie, sometimes you just need to hear those words ..even if you already know it in your head.. it helps!:001_icon1
i echo the words of lady of the freaks. be comfortable with your body. barbie dolls are not cute in my opinion.
Being nude is about being with nature not about looking a cartain way. If the people you are with are true naturlasts then they will not care what you look like because that is not what its about. Feel free to be your self and express your self and don't worry what others think!!!!
People need to stop worrying about others opinions and people also need to start worrying about themselvs and not be so concerned about others. If you dont like the words out fo your radio, turn em off, if you dont like what is in type in front of you, close the page and if you dont like what your looking at then close your eyes or turn around. You do as you please, the haters in life just need to get over themselves.
If you want to be naked, then be naked! Hats off to ya... Gotta love the human body in all its many shapes and sizes.
just do it! we love it and I aint exactly a hunk- the wife is perty though=).. Honestly- nudism isnt about what you look like, its about what you feel.
All people are different shapes & sizes if you enjoy the Lifestyle don't worry what others think just enjoy.
Greetings, Zi-Bohemian and all you other kindred spirits, I am, so to speak, the male counterpart when it comes to the big body fraction. I have learned to love my body and my nickname directly derives from it, since a merry sister at a regional Rainbow Gathering named me thus. I enjoy baring it and living a naturist life (even as I type this) whenever and whereever possible. Last summer, I heard funny comments when skinny-dipping at my favourite lake near Düsseldorf, coming from two gay men, who were going into the lake near my blanket, as they observed the size of my belly and discussed about the times, when big-bellied men were considered to be a sex symbol and how big the Emperor of Tonga used to be. I grinned inwardly, thinking that being named after a blissful and happy God and being compared to an Emperor is not a bad thing. Considering big women: our ancestors would have worshipped you as the living Goddess, as your body exactly is built after the model of the neolithic Goddesses found all over Europe. So, whenever you feel doubt about nudity, just think "I am the Goddess" (every woman is, by the way ), and soon you will also radiate with the presence of the Goddess in you. Your beauty is what you feel being beautiful. Start with private nudity (if you haven't already, that is), and enjoy the comfort and ease of it. Another thing that brings out positive feelings is to smile - sounds almost too easy, but it helps. Wishing you a blissful time, with a skyclad smile, ~*Ganesha*~
I stay nude when i'm home alone and sleep nude when I sleep alone. I've been doing it ever since I moved out of my parents house many many years ago. My wife believes nudity is just wrong so she doesn't know.
I think that you need to follow your heart. I do believe that you wouldn't be judged at a fire/drum circle because people aren't there to be attracted (or the opposite) from someone's body. They are there to share in a tribal event with their community.
who cares what others think, just do it!! if it feels right for you, then screw anyone who is agaisnt it.
There are places where I would never flaunt my self in front of others. I just wouldn't. But if they should happen onto me, in my quiet places, then let them be the ones to flee. Not me.
I am, myself, a BIG gal, not obese but I have extra baggage...anyhow, one night me, my aunt, her hubby, and my mom were out camping [and a couple others who are nudists, friends of my aunt] . My aunt and her hubby are nudists, and I am one myself. ( mom is not but supports me) anyway, I thought they would make fun of me or look at me weirdly...but they didnt. They treated me like any other. I didnt care what they thought of me naked really, but I EXPECTED to be judged. Whenever I didnt get any bad or judgmental feedback, I was happy, and felt that I didnt care if anyone didnt like me for me or not! Lady of Freaks is right...Please YOURSELF dearheart! Its worth it Hugs
Nudism is about being free...so when you free yourself of your clothes, free yourself of your worries about your big body, too! Strip yourself of the uncomfortable "clothes" you're wearing both physically and mentally!
If I was big and wanted to go nude and somebody said something to me about the way I looked id just tell them that someday they are going to be old and out of shape and if they decided they wanted to go nude they wouldnt want me saying rude things about how they look so they should just do me a favor and keep their insults to themselves and just look the other way and move along.
Blessed be, fellow nude folks (be they big or not) Since today was a really hot day, and the first work day off of my two-week vacation (a time I intend to spend barefoot the whole time, and nude most of the time). Since the weather forecast predicted a sunny and hot day, my plan for today was: get to my favourite lake and find a spot to enjoy full nudity, together with the occasional refreshment of a cool bath. Since the lake is frequented by naturists, I was able to see them in all ages, shapes and sizes. There were big bellies, normal-sized bellies, hairy and smooth bellies, young and old bellies... naturists of all kinds. Guess what: I did not see one ugly person. The people there (just like myself) were enjoying themselves the most natural way and therefore radiated natural beauty. Since I placed my blanket at a spot, where a strip of sand provided a nice entrance to the lake, I was seen by quite many fellow naturists. No comments. Just an occasional look, smile or nod. And just to let you see, where I was, see below. (Were it not for those high voltage power lines and the jets taking off from Düsseldorf Airport nearby, it'd be a real paradise. :H with a skyclad smile, ~*Ganesha*~
We do live in a society which puts a lot of emphasis on presentation. As it is, a lot of the Western world's population is overweight and not as healthy as they could be (especially in North America). If you are self-conscious about the way you look, then maybe wanting to go nude would give you some incentive to improve your body shape.
