Hi there, I've been reading through peoples discussions on naturism and have found many threads where men have been showing their concerns about getting naked in front of people. The main two issues have been either getting an erection or worried that their penis is too small. What I'd like to know is, are their any women out there who are naturists; or are experiencing naturism for the first time but have any body hang ups? I have not been brought up a naturist myself but my boyfriend has and as a result I have had a couple of experiences now myself but sadly i feel I've let my body hang ups stop me from enjoying the experience. It's not so much I'm self conscious of people seeing me with no pants on (in my opinion all vaginas look the same) I'm more self conscious of people seeing me without a bra on as I feel I don't have a particularly great pair of boobs on me. Is there anyone else out there who feels the same as I do? When I went to France last summer I couldn't help thinking that the majority of women had a better body compared to me. I'd love to know how other women feel about taking their clothes off and if they managed to overcome their body hang ups, how did they do it? xXxXx
Erections are not the major prob for men, yes we will be embarrassed but if you ask most guys will say that they are more scared of shrinkage.
Brilliant post Jen, what you say about exercise is so true, been into exercise since about 17 origianlly to control my weight but now its for how it makes me feel and the energy I get from it. Notts
excellent post jen, you make a very valid point, "to be comfortable in your own skin". i think the embarrasment most men feel when the enter a naturist lifestyle is penis size. men are conditioned to value themselves by comparing how they measure up.
