As a non-nudist, I have a few (silly) questions as to how things work: 1. If nudism isn't sexual, which I'm not arguing that it is, when does it become sexual? Say, if you were at a nudist resort, when would it be ok to "pick up" a mate? Since "sexual come-ons" seemingly aren't allowed while everyone is nude, then do you have to go and put your clothes on, hit on someone at the bar, get together, then take your clothes off again? I just don't get how one keeps any sort of sexuality out of the nudism. When I see a nude girl I would get turned on, at least a little. I mean, that's kinda what is supposed to happen. (scene from "American Pie"... 'Now this is the female form...') We are supposed to be attracted to the opposite sex (or same sex if you wish) by sight, as well as touch, smell, sound, etc...all of the senses, right? I understand that being around nude people, you get desensitized to it. That happens with anything...ever worked on a cow farm? (bad example, but you get the idea) But at what point is it considered OK to become sexually attracted to a nude person if you are a nudist? 2. This may seem really bad, but I just wanna know. Everyone is nude, be it at a party or dance or decorating the Christmas tree... I've seen the pictures on the websites. You've got people of all ages naked. Ok here: How does it work after one uses the bathroom? We all know that there can be a residual trickle of urine. I must say that as much as I can shake it, there's always that little amount of... Certainly the young kids aren't that well versed in hygene. I'm just wondering, what about the last little trickle? Wouldn't it, like, run down your leg or something? What about that really sloppy #2 from the undercooked chicken? I can't believe I asked that. I'm half ashamed. But I really am curious. I'm sorry.
from what i've read for #1, nudist resorts aren't the best place to go if you are looking for sex, make friends first, become lovers later for #2, stay until you are done for #2, the last trickle? should just be a last drop, you could use toilet tissue to get the last drop or possibly let the foreskin catch the last one, we are talking just a drop
I'm not a nudist (although I am usually naked in my room) but I think it's pretty easy to just use toilet paper to wipe off residual urine. As for shit, well, I tend to do it before taking a shower so after wiping with toilet paper I just step into the shower and get clean all over. I don't know about other cultures, but most of us Filipinos are not contented with wiping shit off. We like to wash it off with soap and water, which is why most Filipino households have a pail and dipper in the bathroom as well as toilet paper.
pail and dipper? I don't get it, many americans wet their wipes by running them under tap water, they marketed wet wipes to americans that had a two dispenser system to replace the single roll, one for wettened toilet paper and one for regular, a bidet would be the cleanest and easiest, odd that for a country so lazy we prefer to do it the way with the most effort
As a nudist of many years, who has been to "Nudist Camps" Clothing Optional Beaches and nude parties in private residences, you find there are certain social etiquettes. The Nude Camps are usually very sensitive to sexual issues, from experience with mashers who walk around with boners and intrude upon all the women (gay nude clubs are quite often just a ploy for cruising). So, there are usually stringent rules at most nude clubs about not displaying boners and not trying to pickup the girls. However, nudists are not usually prudes and are quite sexual - hence some of the nudist parties that are sometimes quite embarrassingly sexual in nature. So, you just have to try to get a feel for the situation in which you find yourself. Also, I try to tell guys that for the most part you get used to social nudity and don't get the hardon. That is the main anxiety of most men, that their lust will be betrayed. If you do get hard, it usually goes away with the shock of discovering yourself making a social blunder in a crowd, but if it persists, just find a way to cover it until it passes. (Unless you are at a private party where you see that woodies are accepted and admired.) Again, just know the people and situation that you are in. I have noticed that people at many nude events, especially indoor parties, carry towels. These are to sit on because we are normally protected from each others bodily fluids by clothing. Nothing against sharing bodily fluids, but would you want to do it with everyone at a party? So, if that is the custom with your nude event, then the towel can catch any drops of anything. (BTW, some guys have a problem with leaking pre-cum when they are sexually intrigued even without ever getting an erection. That could be more embarrassing as it tends to string down and doesn't just quickly drop away. Again, a towel would be handy.) Been using water and if available soap to clean myself ever since traveling in India. It is much more hygienic than the paper (Sears catalogs and corncobs for those of the outhouse generation) we've been using in the Western cultures.
I am naked almost 24 hours a day. I find that a sqaure of toilet paper after I pee keeps the dreaded dribble away! I keep wash cloths in the bathroom which I use to keep myself clean after bathroom visits. Being nude a lot far out-weighs any problems that come with being nude!! I LOVE IT!!
Maybe it's your cultural rearing. Australians and Americans more often than not associate adult nudity with sex and sexuality thanks to the likes of the fashion and porn media, as well as ill-informed journalists who write about their first experience. Nudist camps and clubs, as well as nudist beaches and topless beaches are not designed for being hotbeds of unfettered sexual activity, although in the recent years there have been people like swingers and gays who have exploited the movement to fulfill their ulterior motives. That is most certainly true. You don't visit a nudist beach or a camp to find a full scale drunken orgy going on, although sadly there have been some stories of couples having sex in front of young kids at a well known nudist resort in Florida as well as some people doing it in the foliage surrounding nudist beaches. This is what causes the police and authorities to suggest closure to those venues. It's no big deal. If you pee down your leg regardless of whether you are dressed or nude then wipe it down with some toilet paper. Also, nudist parents make their toddlers wear plastic nappies in the pool and spa until they are old enough to be able to control their bowel motions.
The question has been raised in this thread, and others, about how much extra-marital sex takes place at nudist clubs, and in particular if people hook-up with new acquaintances at these places for sex. The short answer is that those who are looking will probably find what you are looking for, but will not be bothered about solicitation if you are not looking. I have visited over a dozen different nudist clubs and parks, some of which could legitimately be called "Resorts", and have found basically the same kinds of people at them all. There are people there who are pretending they are not actually naked and would have you believe that they are not affected in any way by their own nudity or that of others. These are the "Veterans" who may have experienced so much shared-nudity that they are actually jaded by it. And then there are those who definitely are aware of their nakedness, as well as the nakedness of everyone else and are either on their guard, or open to new adventures, depending on what their motivation is. I have never been at any nudist club for too many hours before I become aware of the subculture which always exists, in which the members are open to such sexual adventures. These people do not make themselves known to any that they expect will be criticial, and certainly not to the "veterans", but they have subtle ways of finding each other and making it known to any of a like mind that they are there. When the first, and very tame, "feelers" are extended, they know from the response of those with whom they are talkiing whether that other person is of a like mind. My own experience has been that when I have visited such places with my wife, that any men who are attracted to her will make it known to me in such "innocent" ways that I cannot possibly take offense, but still in such a way that I can respond positively if I so choose. For instance, more than once a man has come to me when my wife is at the club-house or other place, and said something like "Your wife's a really nice-looking lady!", a compliment that would normally not produce an offense wherever it was offered, even if the lady was fully dressed. It is at that point that the husband can end the conversation by saying "Thanks!" and not responding further, even moving away or changing the conversation. Or he can say "Thanks! I'm glad you think so!" and if he is interested in further dialogue say something like "Why do you think so?" and this opens the door for a conversation with the other man about the most attractive features of the wife's naked body. On the other end of this situation is a case in which I was talking with a man whose wife had just walked away. He asked me point-blank "So what do you think of Susie?" When I hesitated, he asked me "Don't you think she's got nice tits?" And so we had a conversation about his wife's "tits" as well as other features. In both these situations the "other man" was saying "Let's pursue this further!" This does happen at ALL nudist gatherings, even if the establishment types don't realize it. There are swingers at all these clubs, even if they are not obvious to everyone.
