Have you ever taken your clothes off in nature? What do you think your motivation was? (Details)

Asked by MrGrimm888 (19541points) April 5th, 2017

Sometimes, when I’m out in the swamp on a nice warm day, I get naked. It just feels right, or freeing, or something.

I haven’t, but I would. It sounds awesome.

JLeslie's avatar

Not totally naked. I’ve been topless in my wooded backyard.

BellaB's avatar

Sure. Sun and air on skin feels fantastic.

Sure, but it’s been a while…

stupid restraining order!

LuckyGuy's avatar

Yep. I’ve been so dirty from doing some project in my woods or digging or grading that I’ve taken off my clothes and hosed myself off outside. I think the last time I did it was when I was putting in my patio. I was covered in mud several times.

While I could walk around outside nude and not bother anyone, I’ve never done it for just the joy. I’m too self conscious and afraid of getting sunburned on places that don’t usually see sun.

@MrGrimm888 Don’t you worry about ‘skeeters?

Pied_Pfeffer's avatar

Absolutely. All involved skinny-dipping, including a pool, a creek, and the ocean. It’s lovely to feel cool water on bare skin after a summer day’s heat.

BellaB's avatar

@Pied_Pfeffer , skinny-dipping is a whole other category of wonderful :)

The motivation was either to swim or change clothing.

@LuckyGuy . Where I normally get naked is on a long stretch of the Edisto River. In the late summer it’s usually only a foot deep or so. It’s an enchanting, gorgeous black water river. There aren’t any mosquitoes on the river. I’m not sure why. If you walk a few yards into the swamp, they’ll carry you away. But in a kayak, or canoe, you just have to worry about the occasional horse fly.

I don’t usually submerge myself though. There are countless tiny fish that nibble on your body hair. It’s painless, but there are some places, I just don’t like them nibbling…

In the salt water, crabs will ruin the experience quickly.

@MrGrimm888 Edisto River sounds lovely. Warm and slow moving. I’d be afraid of losing the dnagly bits too
The one of the gems in our region is Zoar Valley , home to over 30 waterfalls. The water is crystal clear, well oxygenated, fast moving and ice cold. Very refreshing. Zoar is one of the few places on the planet that still has primal forest!

The place is huge, and isolated with no services. There are many places to pull off and hang out without seeing anyone for days. Western NY is like a different planet from the New York that first comes to people’s minds.

^Looks awesome. I fear that one day, such places won’t exist. On this planet anyways. I try and pick up beer cans , and trash whenever I’m out…

LuckyGuy's avatar

@MrGrimm888 Did you see the size of this place? Also not the thick tree cover. You could go there and disappear for a long time while you legally hunt and fish.
The town of Springville is nearby if you wimp out and want food or lodging.

^Sounds like a good place to get naked LOL!

Parts of the Edisto have been developed. In a 24 mile trip, the river can narrow to the point of having to carefully push through cypress trees, or be 50 or so yards wide. Some places have houses. One spot always has angry ducks. 1–95 and a few other roads pass over it a couple times. And there is a giant, rusty old power plant close to where I usually park downriver. I like the diversity, but prefer the desolate, natural parts.

The first time I got naked there, there was a terrible storm that came up a few hours later. It was lightning like 10–30 times a minute, with heavy blowing rain. I have been through dozens of Hurricanes, but that storm scared the shit out of me. I had to lay flat against a mud bank for a couple hours. The rain made the swamp flood,and debris, and insects were pouring over me. I had no phone, no source of light,or food. I was stuck out there for 10 hours. Barely got back to my truck by the time it was too dark to see. During the storm, I wondered if I pissed mother nature off by getting naked. But she saw me through the storm, so I still go nude sometimes. My biggest fear is having a girl scout troop come around a corner whilst I’m wading around in my birthday suit.

Many times in life, I wish I could dissappear in a place like Zoar. If I ever go to NY, I’d rather visit there than the big city.

Yes. To skinny dip in a creek.

LuckyGuy's avatar

@MrGrimm888 It is a great place for that. And people do. There are a couple of areas where regular parties are held.

MrGrimm888's avatar

I used to talk my ex into getting naked with me out there. But I had to give her alcohol first…

Good ol alcohol.

Earthbound_Misfit's avatar

I skinny dip in my pool. I’d love to do it in a waterfall pool, but I haven’t.

ucme's avatar

Oh yes, twas in the woods I was curious to see if a great tit would perch atop my erect penis
Unfortunately a randy woodpecker got their first & now when I get a blowjob it’s like the wife is playing a flute.

Aster's avatar

I think I did with my then husband near dark in a Colorado mountain stream before bed. We slept in our car ; we had plenty of room. I was in my mid twenties as I recall.

MrGrimm888's avatar

@ucme . “skin flute”

Coloma's avatar

Dozens of times over the years. I was quite the little naked sun baby back in the 70’s.
Everyone got naked in nature back then. I did draw the line at playing naked Volleyball, too many parts bouncing around and getting slammed in the boobs with a volley ball is not my idea of a good time. haha

I also sat around naked on my deck for years on my secluded private property and always got in the hot tub naked and sleep naked. I even had naked sex on my horse once out in nature. Now days, pushing 60 in a couple years I might not want to expose myself to the world any more, might cause a stampede of humans and animals. Running in the opposite direction. lol

MrGrimm888's avatar

LOL. Eew… Haven’t we put horses through enough?..

Coloma's avatar

@MrGrimm888 LOL, well she was happy to graze while we had a little fling on her back.
I wouldn’t recommend trying this on a friskier “mount.” haha

Dutchess_III's avatar

Sure. Once to go skinny dipping with my boy neighbor when we were 12.

Other times to have sex in the woods with my BF when I was 15+. One word: Chiggers!

Cooper_Saldana's avatar

Yeah, I used to like jogging at night down this country road in front of my parent’s house.
I was 17 or so and it was warm out so I just got up and went outside naked and started jogging.
I was bored and it was kind of exciting so I got hard as I ran and it started bouncing and I had to stop running because I didn’t want to hurt it.
Another time I think I was naked on the roof at night just laying there.
Later on in life I started skinny dipping with my wife and it really feels great and we also had sex outside on the ground at a camp site right by a beach during the day when nobody was around.
In conclusion, I enjoy being naked outside, thanks. : )

MrGrimm888's avatar

@Coloma . I won’t judge you. At least you had a threesome. LOL.

@Cooper_Saldana . “We’re going streaking by the quad!” (Hank the Tank.)

MrGrimm888's avatar

@Dutchess_III , yeah, chiggers suck…

Dutchess_III's avatar

One time I wound up with 67. My bf counted them.

MrGrimm888's avatar

^Booooooooo. That’s too many.

I deal with sand spurs on the beach. Those mothers are painful…. My ex and I used to go frequently, at night, with a thick sleeping bag. Still got stuck with those things. Once,she had a couple in her hair. It was tough to get them out….

Dutchess_III's avatar

I KNOW!!!!!

PhoebeSea's avatar

I hung out at a nude beach when I was younger. The sun felt so good on my body. The sand, not so much.
