I live naked.

For the majority of my life I've been naked. The alternative living situation that I more or less grew up in saw all of us sleeping in one common room. The adults were on one side and the children on the other. Plus we had 1 communal bathroom with 2 toilettes and 1 shower. Clothings were something to wear when it was too cold.

I do not therefore have many problems with normal human body fonctions.

But I live in a city now and in my apartment I only have a bath-robe near my door for when unexpected people knock on it. But for everyone else I answer it naked and live my life as I wish.

Today I got a note from my property owner telling me that I do not have the right to do this. That there are children in the building and they know a naked girl lives in apt ###

But no person has ever seen me naked outside of my apartment and I have never had any children come into my apartment. I do not even talk to anyone that lives in my building. I also do not never leave my apartement naked. Always clothings! I'm not stupid !

The only way anyone knows I live naked is a I have a sticker on my door that say's naturist federation. But that was there before I moved in. The only other evidence is the mail that comes in my mail box.

So I'm ignoring the letter for now.

 

Greetings and blessings,

This sounds like you've lived a hippie dream and grew up to be a free-spirited and open-minded human being, happily ignoring mainstream's hang-ups and inhibitions. Wonderful to know that there are people like you out there, still living the spirit. And yes, clothes (as well as shoes) are merely tools for protection from the cold. Other than that, nude is the natural and beautiful way to be.
:sunny:

I guess it's one of ugly sides of society rearing its ugly head here... gossip. Even if none of the kids living in that house has seen you in the nude (which is only a "bad" thing in the eyes of mainstream, really), the rumor about a naked hippie woman living in an apartment house can be enough to raise a ruckus among the other tenants, especially prudish ones. Whatever happens behind your apartment's closed door is your business alone, for sure. It's good that you have the precaution of a robe to slip on when answering the door to strangers.

Ignoring the letter for now is OK to do, IMO - however, if your landlord decides to write another letter or even threatens to end your lease contract, I'd explain to him that it's just gossip and rumor at work here.

Don't let that letter keep you from enjoying your life the naturally nude way.

my guess would be when you answer the door naked for your friends someone is seeing you. But regardless you might want to read up on Tenants rights for you city and state.

 

Yes my parents were/are classified as being "weird." I grew up in northen Canada about 250 km from the nearest town. But the government came when I was 13 and took all of us away. It was very horrifying.

When I get things like this it brings back all types of memories and fears. I continue to have minor problems with government and police today. Nothing criminal, I just do not fit into the "normal" things.

Things like I don't have a birth certificate just an affidavit from a doctor that helped birth me. The government is always bothering me to get a birth certificate and I can not be bothered. Things like that, makes traveling and working for other people hard.

When people start doing things like lettres and such. I get very intimidated. I truely fear being put away again for doing nothing.

I'm getting ready to leave. I'm saving my money and buying hiking maps and learning skills. But I do not need the bills of having to get another apartement. That will delay all my plans.

 

Ill just take it out of there because if you dont have a sense of humor, chances are your landlord in probably right about you...

 

Greetings from a fellow canuck!

What happens in your own personal home are private and you're not hurting anyone. It's not like you are prancing around your apartment neither so that people can see you through the windows !!

It's best to just ignore the letters.

Pretty sure you need a birth certificate in order to get a passport.

 

I do not believe in citizenship for anyone. So I'm not going to get a passport and I only need one to get on a plane. Me I will hike and find other ways. I visited Greenland 3 years ago by going to Nain Labrador by ferry and then hiking north and canoeing across the ice floats. The most difficult was crossing the Détroit d'Hudson because it was the first time I used a canoe. The Détroit de Davis was actually very easy.

It just scares me. I find that the people of today are very mean and look to create problems. I want to live here until march 2012 and then I will be quitting here.

 

You probably have some peeping toms looking through your window.

 

Leave it to "normal" society to shatter dreams and spoil a perfectly happy life... I hope that you will find other, free-spirited, caring and open-hearted folks on your travels... The Rainbow Family comes to mind. They're "weird" in the eyes of the mainstream, tolerant about nudity, aspiring to live in accord with Nature, treating our Great Mother and each other with love, caring and respect. It's best to have other people of the same spirit and mindset around you, before fears and dark memories overwhelm you.

My advice. rather than getting away from all people, find the right people. Some Rainbow Family folks live in Canada, too, and I'm sure they'll welcome you with a smile and open arms.
:grouphug:

Good luck and all the best to you, finding a place where you can truly live, instead of just function, as "normal" society wants us to.

I Don't Wear Clothes, And I Haven't Had A Peeping Tom Or Stalker In Years...:bigcry::bigcry:



Tears Glen...:bigcry:

 

well it's hard to see through the black plastic you got taped over the windows

 

My first run in with the family rainbow was at a park where I was selling some of my affairs. (Like a giant neighborhood garage sale) A "brother" in the "family" came over and acted really nice and then took off with as much stuff as he could carry. Never bothering to pay for it. He took half of my knitted and other hand crafted stock.

The second run I had was at a gathering. Complete disorganization to the point I got sicK. Plus a toothless cave man was intent on getting a blow job from me.

True enough you can not judge a book by it's cover. But sadly if the cover does not look good I am not going to buy the book.

I think I'll find my own path and avoid the Rainbow Family for now. I can always find similar people kind of people without having to attend meetings.

Sorry for the negative attitude and I hope your experiences are better than mine were.

 

Hearing this about people who claim to be part of the Family makes me want to uke: !
Honestly, this is so against the spirit of the Rainbow Family! I'm sorry to hear that people and events that normally are a haven for free-spirited people treated you like that. I can understand, that you wish to find kindred spirits apart from them. My experiences with the Family were positive, so that I thought it might be right for you as well.
I have to be sorry and I am to have stirred up such memories. You don't need to apologize at all.

It does hurt and truely disturb me what happen. In the case of the first man, I would have given him the stuff if he just asked. There was no need to steal from me. In the second, physical looks and apperances don't mean much to me. But a level of class and hygiène is obligatoire.

 

Sorry to hear this has happened to you, and even more so that some so-called 'alternative' people can be so selfish, mean and perverted.

Follow your own path. Love many, trust a few, always paddle your own canoe.

 

Very sad what happened to you, I hate governments telling people how to live, especially when it creates turmoil for families.
I just can't imagine trying to survive without any kind of documentation of who I am, in this kind of world.
Good luck to you in your journey.

 

I'd suggest you read the rental contract and see if it says you must wear clothes while you're in your apartment. I do know of cases where people got in trouble because they were in their dwelling naked but could be seen from a public area. But that was in the US.

Question: If the landlord knocks on your door, do you still answer naked?

 

screw your landlord tell him he has no right to tell you what you should dress or act inside your house. You are not destroying the property by what you are doing. It just another form of how mainstream people want to put down all those that are "weird". But i say fuck being normal i rather be weird

 

I don't know about tenants/legal rights - but I wonder how it would be proved? CCTV?
Infringing human rights would be more of a concern
Good to hear that you live with the freedom of spirit and conviction of conscience.
Keep the faith

 

My view is if the landlord has only sent you a letter and not felt the need to call or talk to you face to face, is probally just going through the formalities. (yes Mizzus snoopy britches with bug up your butt-I have addressed the issue). I think in today's society some people have nothing better to do than expect the worse in others, fear or ridicule what they don't understand and act like they are experts in things they obviously know nothing about. Ignorance running rampant once again. Here some options that come to mind.
A) Ignore the letter and just don't answer the door nude anymore even if it's a friend.
B) Find who looks like the most meddlesome person in the building and breakdown crying and confess your actually a Nun on sabatical recuperating from breast cancer.
C) Let it be known you work for the IRS and would very much like to know who is spreading vicious rumors.
D) Just let it go/lifes to short.
