    I am single male and have not had a girlfriend. How could I tell a female friend about my experience in nudism?
    Hooliehop
    Community Answer
    Just be honest with her. If she is a friend she will understand. If she seems uncomfortable with the conversation, change the subject.
  • Question
    Should I shave down there?
    Community Answer
    It is completely up to you. One of the best things about being a nudist is celebrating your body, so manicure your nether-hair in the way that makes you feel most comfortable and confident.

    How would I work and get paid without clothes on?
    Community Answer
    You can't. If it's not allowed in your workplace, don't do it. Nudists don't stay naked everywhere!
  • Question
    My daughter lives at a naturist camp and would like me to come visit with my 2 younger children (8 and 10 year-old boys). She has assured me that they would wear wraps until the boys felt comfortable removing their clothes and being around others without clothes. How can I make it more comfortable for them?
    Community Answer
    If you feel like your sons are too young for an experience like this, perhaps you should decline the offer. Of course, they could always wear clothes. It's not your daughter's decision whether your sons wear clothes, wraps, or just their underwear. Respect your son's decisions, too. If they are uncomfortable being around naked people, offer to come when they are a bit older, or maybe go on your own and leave them with a babysitter.
  • Question
    What if my pubic hair embarrasses me to a point where I don't want to be nude down there?

    Community Answer
    Then trim it, shave it, do what ever you need to do to feel comfortable. Nudism is about accepting who you are. That may take time, but once you do it's the best feeling in the world.
  • Question
    Can teens join these groups?
    Community Answer
    Yes, but if you are under 18, you must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian. If you are 18, you are free to be a naturist as you please, unless you live in one of the few states where the age of majority is more than 18; you live in Arkansas, where nudism is illegal entirely; or you still live with parents or guardians who are very much against nudism.
  • Question
    What if I want to be nude and there is a servant at home all the time?
    Community Answer
    Explain that you are, or want to be, a nudist, and ask the servant if (s)he would be okay with you being naked at home. If the servant is not okay with it, you can be naked in your room, or just go to a nudist resort, club or event.
  • Question
    How do male nudists deal with erections?

    Erections seldom happen in a nudist environment. However, in the unlikely event that a person gets an erection, he can roll over or take a dip in a pool or lake until it settles down.
  • Question
    How can I join a nudism club?

    What if I have to sleep with my door open, and my parents wake me up in the morning?

  • Question
    Why would anyone want to go biking or going on hikes while naked?
    Community Answer
    Because it can help stretch out some of your muscles. But with hiking it is just so you can feel the nice breeze on your private parts and get the feel of people seeing you naked.
  • Question
    I am pregnant and I sleep with my husband and two kids under the age of 12. Can I sleep naked with them?
    Community Answer
    You should really get your children a separate bedroom and their own beds. Your children are nearing puberty and sleeping with their parents, nude or otherwise, may make it hard for them to have healthy boundaries. Once your bed belongs to you and your husband alone, feel free to sleep naked.
  • Question
    What if you don't feel comfortable telling your parents; any ideas for being a secret nudist?

    It is great that you are so comfortable with your body, and you should feel free to be nude in your own private spaces, like the bathroom and your bedroom. However, you should abide by the rules of your parent's house and wait until you are out on your own to become a full-fledged nudist.

  • Question
    I am already a nudist. I have a boyfriend, and when I'm nude, I still want things to get sexual sometimes, is that okay in public?
    Tom De Backer
    Top Answerer
    Most countries have laws in place against being naked in public, as well as against any sexual act in public. So be aware of those laws and rules if you engage in those activities outdoors. That said, yes, it's perfectly normal to feel like you want things to get sexual from time to time. I would make sure that it is clear to everyone that being nude does not automatically mean you want sex.
