(NSFW) What are your views on naturism or nudism?

Humans are the only animals that wear clothes.
Meaning, wearing clothes is abnormal and unnatural.
It is an affront against nature.

I don’t think it’s a sexual issue at all and that people who are comfortable hanging out naked should be able to do it with likeminded others.

Not my things personally.

I noticed the only hair visible in the picture above were on the owners’ heads. Do you think that was natural – or Nair?
I have a T-level above 400. It would take me too long to shave.

Aside from hygene issues…. No big deal. I don’t think we’ll see too many nudists in December or north of certain latitudes though. Clothing is a type of technology we use to adapt to our environment. It is perfectly natural for us to wear clothes. Technology is our niche in nature, we are just beasts that manipulate things to our advantage.

@LuckyGuy guys and gals who shave their junk are watching too much porn

I wear clothes and hang around with people who wear clothes. I spend time naked at home sometimes. I think it’s fine that there are naturalist resorts for those who enjoy spending time unclothed around others who may or may not be clothed. I like that we don’t really accept nakedness in public among others.

Newborn babies like to be dressed and cry and are uncomfortable left naked. I’ve been to nude beaches and found that people stare more than at clothed beaches. I think it’s fine to live naked if that’s what one wants to do. But I don’t want to see it, and am glad it’s not accepted in public in most places.

@ARE_you_kidding_me you are wrong about shaving- it’s very very common and I hate porn and see a lot of shaved junk whose owners are not at all concerned with porn.

The truth about shaving down below, is actually got to do with increasing pleasure when being intimate.

It is also commonly done by athletes for comfort and hygiene. I actually shave my armpits before I practice yoga. Due to the fact that when I’m stretching, I don’t want people seeing two sweaty swamps under my arms haha. I like hair on the rest of my body however.

There are at least four different nudist colonies/resorts within five miles of my town. I’ve applied for jobs at a couple of them.

Humans are humans, and they have the commonly-assigned human parts, generally speaking. What they choose to do with those human-parts doesn’t bother me. I’m more offended by poor fashion choices than by nudity.

@trailsillustrated – someone forgot to tell my son that. I don’t think he willingly wore pants until he was three.

I am generally supportive of those who wish to be sans clothes when at the beach or at a colony. But we had a real problem in the Castro district where a bunch of middle aged overweight white guys liked to hang out (in both senses) at the bus stop in all their glory.

The Supervisors had to pass an ordinance saying if you went into a restaurant nude you had to sit on a towel. Seems some were not the most hygienic. And quite frankly, they were nude to shock people more than because of some belief in naturism.

Yes they saved the pubs. But I also don’t see leg hair, chest hair, arm hair, (back and butt hair – not visible) It must take forever.

@LuckyGuy “saved the pubs” The nudist drinking establishment was threatened with closure?

My view is this, looking through binoculars at upstanding members can cause blindness

Arrgh… “shaved the pubes”. (I need to reread more carefully.)

Whatever floats your Boatie McBoatie.

It’s not for me though. I am pale Celtic skinned and you would not get me out in the midday sun. Nor would you get me out when there is no sun as it would be too chilly. So clothes are a necessity for me.

We’re also the only animals who build and fly in airplanes, and the only ones who can repetitively type words on computer keyboards. (I had to use the qualifier there, because I know that a lot of cats use keyboards, but their ‘typing’ is more random.) So apparently even answering the question is an affront against nature, so I’d better abstain.

If you really want to know what an ‘affront against nature’ looks like you will find many examples on your nearest nudist beach.
